"We've been using No Surprises Project Management™ since 2005. Team members strongly
support the process since they, the experts in their respective fields, are now empowered to plan
and execute the details of every product development effort. This has resulted in an extraordinary
record of first iteration design successes and has allowed the release of more product with limited
resources."

Director, Product Engineering

“By applying the concepts in "No Surprises Project Management" we’ve been extremely successful in delivering what the customer needed, on time, on budget. The focus on commitments (deliverables) ensures everyone understands who needs to deliver what, to whom, when, and with what expected quality. Gantt charts obscure the critical deliverables by focusing on the activities. The tools in "No Surprises Project Management" are much more effective than Gantt charts.”
