1. A method for evaluating a project, comprising: extracting information programmatically from output generated by two or more project development tools using a plurality of data mining modules, wherein a single data mining module is capable of extracting information from output that is generated by a single type of project development tools, and wherein a single data mining module is capable of extracting information from output that is generated by one or more project development tools of the same type but developed by different vendors; each data mining module normalizing the extracted information extracted from the output that is generated by the one or more project development tools of the same type but developed by different vendors programmatically based at least in part on a standardized set of metrics in standardized terms and units, wherein the extracted information prior to normalization is represented by different sets of metrics, each using different terms and units; and generating two or more maps based at least in part on the normalized extracted information, wherein each of the maps includes at least part of the normalized information extracted from a project development tool that generated the output on which the normalized extracted information is based, and wherein the normalized extracted information is associated with a project component with which the corresponding output is associated.
