These guidelines set out the expectations and standards for managing and monitoring major IT projects within the New Zealand Government sector. The guidelines build on the experience gained over time and provide: an overview of accountabilities and responsibilities and the Government's requirements for ensuring good practice across the sector; guidance on what constitutes good project management; a high level overview of "how" to achieve a well-managed project; guidance on what the monitoring agencies expect and will look for. (This guidance supersedes the 1998 publication 'Principles and Good Practices for Selecting and Managing Information Technology Projects'.)
