Abstract: This paper examines the resilience of IT projects to the COVID-19 pandemic. It provides a literature overview of resilience applicability in IT projects and it details the context of IT project management on public services. A simplified managed model is described to facilitate the evaluation of project resilience. This model enhances project resilience by strengthening the project in the organisational, operational, functional and project dimensions. Two case studies are detailed based on on-going IT projects carried by public French institutions: the modernisation of the French personal income system; and the migration of a full online teaching due to the sanitary confinement. The analysis realises the four dimensions and highlights their contribution in the pandemic recovery context. Whereas this approach may be perceived as simplistic, it offers essential lessons to improve resilience of IT projects for public services when facing unexpected crisis.
