The Quality of Information in Project Management

Poor quality of information in modern organizations may be caused by many aspects, such as: the size and nature of the information, human factors, the organization's culture, experience and skills as a manager and other team members, technology, last but not least, the quality of the inputted data. Applying a methodology of quality control helps organizations create effective management of their information. The method of quality information control depends on all those aspects. The importance of the organization should be given to dispose of an optimum amount of information in the required level of quality and especially to share this information. The quality of information is the key to the success of the project's management; this also applies in many other areas. Understanding the mechanics of the control of information management and its class is essential, this is an experience that distinguishes successful information managers. With the increasing dependence of organizations on the quality of management, information and operational decisions "patches" IQ are no longer an equivalent way. Organizations must learn to recognize potential signs of the possible development of "patches" in order to devise solutions before problems arise. This, however, requires knowledge of information processing and the understanding of why these processes were carried out as they should be, or why they were unfulfilled. Organizations that deal with warning signs of IQ problems provide a smooth path for their customers a higher quality of information. A framework for data quality assessment should not only evaluate, but also plan, analyse and solve problems related to the quality of data for a proactive management. The role of the quality management project is to ensure that the project will satisfy the needs for which it was created and to start addressing them. Many projects end in failure, mainly because the project team concentrated their attention only to the written specification of the major products in development, and forget about other needs and expectations that participants attach to the project. It follows that it is equally important to put emphasis on the quality just as much as the scope of the project together with the time and costs required for its implementation. In the article I have described the results of my research as well as the plans for further research, the results of which should be the proposal of methodology for evaluation of quality of information in project management.
