Why do projects fail? Human failure, people don’t buy in, don’t know what’s expected, don’t have the skills? Is your vision too lofty? Was there a lack of user involvement? Did you get short changed by the vendor community? Requirements changing, scope creep, lack of leadership, too complicated, lack of planning?

40% of new product implementations fail or are cancelled (software management, University of California - 2000) this is pretty intimidating.
