Gold plating in the project means needlessly enhancing the
expected results, namely, adding characteristics that are costly,
not required, and that have low added value with respect to the
targets ― in other words, giving more with no real justification
other than to demonstrate one’s own talent. Gold plating is
especially interesting for project team members, as it is typical
of projects with a marked professional component ― in other
words, projects that involve specialists with proven experience
and extensive professional autonomy. In these environments
specialists often see the project as an opportunity to test and enrich
their skill sets. There is therefore a strong temptation, in all
good faith, to engage in gold plating, namely, to achieve more
or higher-quality work that gratifies the professional but does
not add value to the client’s requests, and at the same time
removes valuable resources from the project. As the saying
goes,
“The best is the enemy of the good.”* autonomy: 자율성 ** gratify: 만족시키다
