Highlights

Scope as strategy — explicit in/out/deferred boundaries that prevent the scope creep killing 52% of projects

Work Breakdown Structures — 100% Rule, 8/80 Rule, deliverable-oriented decomposition that reveals hidden work

Critical path & critical chain — dependency mapping, CCPM buffers, and parallel work identification

Reference Class Forecasting — the "outside view" that cut UK transport overruns from 38% to under 5%

Pre-Mortem risk analysis — prospective hindsight that increases failure-reason identification by 30%

Phase-gate checkpoints — Go/Kill/Hold/Recycle decisions that structurally override the sunk-cost fallacy

“The time to discover your project is actually three projects is during planning — not during execution.”

About Project Accelerator

Only 50% of projects meet their objectives — not because teams lack effort, but because they lack clarity. Project Accelerator forces that clarity early, when it's cheap. From quick project outlines to comprehensive plans with Work Breakdown Structures, critical path analysis, CCPM buffering, and Pre-Mortem risk assessment, every engagement defines what's in, what's out, and what will go wrong before a single resource is committed. Reference Class Forecasting replaces the planning fallacy with honest estimates. Phase gates override the sunk-cost trap. And MVP thinking ensures the smallest meaningful version ships first. Plans are thinking tools, not prophecy — and this agent builds the ones that actually survive contact with reality.
