The project started quite well <strong>and</strong> first features were piloted <strong>and</strong> tested in the winter of 2008. The<br />

definition <strong>and</strong> piloting phase showed that the information system is quite easily tailored to our needs.<br />

First parts of the information system were taken in operational use in the spring 2009. At the<br />

beginning, the curriculum management <strong>and</strong> yearly planning of degree programs’ teaching features<br />

were implemented. However, the more users were envolved with the system the more challenges<br />

were recognized. Especially the specific needs of our organization <strong>and</strong> processes required more work<br />

than was initially estimated. These features did not hinder the use of the system, but we needed to be<br />

aware of these shortages.<br />

Figure 5 shows the real project schedule which differ substantially from the original project plan<br />

shown in Figure 3. The exceeding of the project’s original timing has many reasons. The reasons are<br />

listed in table 2 with short descriptions.<br />
