How about does the client get the specified outcome? If the work is
properly defined,
you should arive at a well formed outcome with the client, and if the client
achieves the stated outcome, you are a success. If not, then either the
outcome was not realistic (your job to determine-well formedness
conditions), or the client was not comitted to the outcome (again, your job
to determine).
Just my $0.02 worth!
