Bridging the Gap: Integrating Organizational Change Management with IT Project Delivery

Abstract

In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, the successful implementation of IT projects is increasingly contingent upon effective organizational change management (OCM). This research paper explores the intersection of OCM and IT project delivery, proposing a comprehensive framework that integrates these two critical domains. Through a review of existing literature and analysis of case studies, we identify key challenges and best practices for synchronizing OCM strategies with IT project management processes. Our findings reveal that the alignment of OCM with IT project delivery not only enhances project success rates but also promotes sustainable organizational transformation. This integrated approach ensures that technological advancements are supported by a well-prepared workforce, thereby minimizing resistance and maximizing adoption. The paper concludes with practical recommendations for practitioners aiming to bridge the gap between OCM and IT project delivery, ultimately fostering a more agile and resilient organizational environment.
