However, it is necessary to know why majority of IT projects fail and what the perceived success/failure factors are and to what extent the risk management concept is of central importance in every IT projects. This study aims to put spotlight on the importance of IT projects success/failure factors and IT project risk factors comprehensively according to literature review. Accordingly, it is proposed 5Ps (Presiding, People, Pragmatic, Process, and Performance) as preventative and proactive measures that IT project managers may consider in order to gain sustainable IT project management development processes. This research indicates how 5Ps consideration will lead to sustainable and successful IT project management.
