Construction projects are the same. It seems like every week I read about another construction project that’s far beyond its initial estimate. The difference is that a half-finished construction project is a gaping wound in the landscape, but a half-finished software project is just some code hidden in a corporate server. The incentive to finish construction projects is greater.

The difference is that missing deadlines in construction projects come with bigger monetary penalties (citation needed,
based on the low penal damages I've personally seen in IT project contracts).
