Authors: R. Mcdermott; Julian Michael Bass; J. Lalchandani
Year: 2014

Software development has become increasingly globalized because of technological innovation, the evolution of work and business processes, as well as prevailing educational systems and national policies [1]. This paper addresses the challenges faced when creating realistic opportunities for students to participate in team working on a globally distributed software engineering project. We examine the experience of one set of students who undertook a single semester software development project, the technical objective of which was to create a product using online collaboration tools [2]. The students involved were studying at two widely-separated universities: Robert Gordon University (RGU), UK, and the International Institute for Information Technology, Bangalore (IIIT-B), India. A classroom-based action research approach has been used to evolve and reflect on the project [3]. Detailed student feedback was canvassed using an open-ended questionnaire. The students report favourably on acquisition of employability, collaboration and professional skills. A number of challenges remain in areas of project management, the use of collaborative technology and of scaling the project to larger classes, while retaining a manageable supervision overhead.

Authors: Mike Webber; Mark Gibson
Year: 2012

Microsoft is in the first full year of a new operating model, called ‘the integrator’. The integrator model is a global solution — technology and external provider enabled — where Microsoft's in-house corporate real estate function (Real Estate and Facilities) leads a single ‘integrator’ provider that manages a stable of tier 1 service providers. The tier 1 companies provide facilities management, project management and brokerage services. The integrator provides programme management, data and technology management, lease administration, thought leadership and general support services. The system is held together through a comprehensive organisational and governance model supported by advanced technology solutions. The paper describes the decision made by Microsoft to adopt the integrator model, the journey taken to achieve this model and the outcomes experienced.

Authors: C. Bodea; M. Dascalu; M. Coman
Year: 2010

This paper examines the factors that influence the quality of training and education on project management. The authors present the results of two questionnaire-based surveys. The goal of the first survey was to find what factors influence the quality of project management education, according to the perspective of trainers, professors, and training providers. The respondents included Chinese and European academics and professionals, such as project managers, software developers, financial managers and professors. The respondents were not only involved in project management training but also served as team members or team managers, thus ensuring a balanced overview of theoretical and practical issues. The goal of the second survey was to explore the definition â€œqualityâ€ to trainees and students. Although there were small differences of perspective, both trainers and trainees have the same approach toward a qualitative project management education.
SUCCESS FACTORS FOR INTERNATIONAL HTA PROJECTS: EVALUATING EUnetHTA JOINT ACTION AS AN EXEMPLAR
Authors: E. Guegan; A. Cook
Year: 2014

Objectives: Evaluation is essential for the management of international projects or networks in health technology assessment (HTA). It extends beyond the normal process of project management by incorporating qualitative dimensions and provides information about a project's effectiveness and achievements. This article aimed to identify the factors that are important for the success of international HTA projects. The European network for Health Technology Assessment Joint Action (EUnetHTA JA) is presented as an exemplar. Methods: Methods for the evaluation of international HTA projects include interviews, focus groups, questionnaires, observations and documentary review, and the key points of these approaches have been summarized. The impact and effectiveness of the EUnetHTA JA was evaluated by questionnaires of project participants and external stakeholders, and by documentary review. Results: The response rate for the three annual questionnaires sent to project participants ranged from 86 percent to 88 percent and for external stakeholders ranged from 65 percent to 88 percent. Key factors for project success included production of deliverables according to the workplan, achievement of objectives, added value generated, effective communication, involvement of external stakeholders, workstream management and progress from the preceding EUnetHTA 2006–2008 project. Conclusions: The experience of this project can inform the evaluation of future international HTA collaborations, such as the EUnetHTA 2nd Joint Action and HTAsiaLink. A high response rate was achieved to the self-completion questionnaires and the strategy followed is recommended for evaluation of international HTA projects. Future assessments of international HTA projects should strive to measure outcomes and impact, not just outputs and process.

Authors: Soe Ye Yint Tun; Samaneh Madanian
Year: 2023

Abstract Objective Clinical Information System (CIS) usage can reduce healthcare costs over time, improve the quality of medical care and safety, and enhance clinical efficiency. However, CIS implementation in developing countries poses additional, different challenges from the developed countries. Therefore, this research aimed to systematically review the literature, gathering and integrating research findings on Success Factors (SFs) in CIS implementation for developing countries. This helps to integrate past knowledge and develop a set of recommendations, presented as a framework, for implementing CIS in developing countries. Materials and Methods A systematic literature review was conducted, followed by qualitative data analysis on the published articles related to requirements and SF for CIS implementation. Eighty-three articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in the data analysis. Thematic analysis and cross-case analysis were applied to identify and categorize the requirements and SF for CIS implementation in developing countries. Results Six major requirement categories were identified including project management, financial resources, government involvement and support, human resources, organizational, and technical requirements. Subcategories related to SF are classified under each major requirement. A set of recommendations is provided, presented in a framework, based on the project management lifecycle approach. Conclusion The proposed framework could support CIS implementations in developing countries while enhancing their rate of success. Future studies should focus on identifying barriers to CIS implementation in developing countries. The country-specific empirical studies should also be conducted based on this research’s findings to match the local context.
A Simulation Based Approach for Software Release and Support Management
Authors: Vikram Singh
Year: 2008

Deciding when to stop testing and deliver or release a software product in the competitive market place, is an important decision in software project management. Software tools are available in the market for backing the decisions of project managers with regards to software release. Also, software development houses may need to know “for how long should they support and maintain their software product after release?” A few tools are available that take into account the software product support activities that go beyond software release while computing and optimizing software life cycle cost. A simulation based approach has been devised for helping Software Project Managers in deciding: 1) How long to test software? 2) How long to provide free support to the product? 3) When to withdraw the product support?
Outsourcer Knowledge Protection, Psychological Contract Schema, and Project Performance: A Vendor's Perspective
Authors: Zelong Wei; Zhanhe Du; Y. Bao
Year: 2018

Despite the increased research attention directed to the importance of knowledge protection in collaborative business partnerships, such as IT offshore outsourcing, the extant literature offers conflicting views on whether knowledge protection inhibits project performance. Based on the transaction cost theory and the psychological contract theory, this study investigates how outsourcer knowledge protection affects project performance through partnership quality from the view of the vendors. Hypotheses were proposed and examined using data from 180 IT offshore outsourcing projects. This study finds that knowledge protection reduces partnership quality and project performance. Furthermore, a vendor's relational contract schema strengthens the negative effect of outsourcer knowledge protection on partnership quality, while a vendor's transactional contract schema weakens the negative effect. This study extends our understanding regarding the effects of knowledge protection on project performance and has important implications for outsourcing project management.

Authors: F. C. Rodrigues; A. Filippetto; J. Barbosa
Year: 2019

This paper presents a computational model entitled Kairós for prediction and recommendation in project schedules. The model uses context prediction mechanisms based on task data and projects stored during its execution. The recommendations are made to the manager in a proactive manner, considering best practices in project management and learning with the approval or rejection of each recommendation. A prototype was implemented based on the proposed model, and through it, an evaluation was carried out using simulated use cases with real data from a large company. The results showed that the model was able to predict with precision of 93% if a task would be completed with delay, with 87% accuracy.
Risk Management in Agile Software Development: A Survey
Authors: Muhammad Hammad; Irum Inayat; Maryam Zahid
Year: 2019

In agile software development, some of the formal project management activities are neglected due to heavy documentation and planning. Agile methodologies usually focus on rapid development over hefty documentation which is contrary to the nature of the risk management process. Literature studies show agile methods are used for the development safety critical systems as well. For that ignoring risk management process is inevitable. This intrigued us to explore more on the risk management practices followed in agile methods following industry. To further the investigations on industrial practices regarding risk management, in this paper we explore on (i) the risks faced by the agile practitioners, and (ii) the mitigation strategies used. For this, we conducted an online survey with 54 agile practitioners. The results showed that the project deadlines and varying requirements are the two most commonly faced risks by the practitioners. Furthermore, the results also revealed that risk management strategies are being followed to some extent, but usually in a non-systematic way.
DETERMINANTS OF TIMELY COMPLETION OF CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS AT KENYA AIRPORTS AUTHORITY
Authors: Roseline Nyamwange
Year: 2018

The aim of this study was to assess the determinants of timely completion of construction projects at Kenya Airports Authority. Empirical review on budgets; contract variation; monitoring and evaluation; and staff competencies was conducted. The study used a descriptive survey design. The target population for this research was 122 staff obtained from KAA project management department that had been handling different projects at KAA for the last 5 years. Questionnaires were coded, given a distinct number and data entered manually in a computer. This was then analyzed and tabulated accordingly. Data was represented by use of frequencies, percentages and tabulated in frequency tables and descriptive statistics. The study found that budgeting, staff competencies, monitoring and evaluation had appositive and significant correlation with timely completion of construction projects at KAA. The study also found that contract variation had a negative and significant correlation with timely completion of construction projects at KAA. The study recommended that KAA should come up with budgeting procedures which aims to enhance the performance of construction projects such as introduction of budget plans, budget control processes and stakeholder involvement in budgeting process. There is also a need for KAA to involve all the stakeholders involved in project management to reduce contract variation. The management should come up with specific policies that prevent adjustment of the quantity, quality and scope of construction projects by over 15%. The findings of the study also led to the recommendations that KAA should enhance monitoring and evaluation of construction projects by enhancing the monitoring of project viability and increasing performance auditing since it influences performance of construction at KAA positively and significantly. Furthermore, there is a need to establish training programmes to enhance the competence of the project team. There is also a need to recruit based on experience, education level and skills. Key Terms: Budgeting, Staff Competencies, Monitoring and  Evaluation, Contract Variation, Completion of Construction Projects
Study about software project management with Design Thinking
Authors: W. Santos; C. Quarto; Luís Fonseca
Year: 2018

This article presents an ongoing work on how it may be possible to work on software development using not only agile methodologies for the processes, but also the use of Design Thinking for the requirements analysis and software quality measurement. Given that there is the difficulty in the software process of understanding what the user really needs through Requirements Engineering, much of the fact that the software product is intangible and difficult to measure, it is necessary to listen to the end user about what he really needs. This process brings the Thinking Design mental model to improve the process of understanding what the user really needs, using their pillars: empathy, collaboration and prototyping. From this process, we can arrive at an extremely assertive Requirements Analysis model as to what the end user actually needs from that software product. On the other hand, we have to measure the quality of software, where we have measures that are more linked to the process and less linked to fit with qualitative metrics such as usability or productivity results that the user has reached. Based on this, a study was made on the possibility of using Design Thinking to help the Software Engineering process, listening to the user more and delivering software that he, the end user, unconsciously modelled, working only the interpretation of problems and needs according to the actual needs of that user.

Year: 2013

Due to an increased need for learning modern project management methodologies, companies have been forced to improve their knowledge of Project Management Offices (PMO). Global business environment resulted with increased importance of project management methodologies, aligned with competitive strategies. Today, many organizations have recognized the importance of implementing PMO's for effective project control and better stakeholder (executives) support for projects. PMOs also undertake strategic roles such as incorporating higher management support to achieve strategic goals, integrating business strategies into project management efforts, and prioritization of projects. This paper examines PMOs in the process of strategic alignment. Moreover, the contribution of PMOs to achieve strategic goals is explored. Our initial findings are promising represented in a framework, and demonstrated by a case study application review using IT and telecommunication companies selected from Turkey. The research offers future directions and implications of a well-established successful PMO system.
The Value of Team-Based Mixed-Reality (TBMR) Games in Higher Education
Authors: J. Denholm; A. Protopsaltis; S. Freitas
Year: 2013

This paper reports on a conducted study, measuring the perceptions of post-graduate students on the effectiveness of serious games in the classroom. Four games were used (Project Management Exercise, “Winning Margin” Business Simulation, Management of Change and Management of Product Design and Development) with scenarios ranging from product design to project management. The games might be classified as Team-Based Mixed-Reality (TBMR) games. The games were conducted over the period October 2010 to May 2011and the questionnaires conducted during June 2011. The results, from a sample size of 80 of largely international students, indicated a clear ranking of emotions experienced when participating in the games with “Exciting” outweighing “Apprehensive”, “Bored” and Indifferent”. The majority of students indicated that both “their team winning” and “showing their personal competence” were important to them. However 70% said that working in teams was valuable in itself implying that team-working was a strong element in the conclusion that the games were of value. For all four games, over 60% said that conflict was valuable and over 75% said participating improved their “working in teams” skills. The value of feedback was rated highly, as was improved motivation. Over 60% said that the participation in the games was more useful than lectures on the same topic.
Requirements Risk Management for Continuous Development: Organisational Needs
Authors: Sanna Kainulainen; T. Tuunanen; Tero Vartiainen
Year: 2024

Information systems development has recently evolved from traditional to agile and continuous forms. Continuous development (CD) methods, such as development and operations (DevOps), integrate many well-regarded parts of agile development and add collaboration among an organisation’s development, operations and quality assessment departments. We argue that requirements risk management (RRM) poses additional challenges to projects where development work is carried out quickly and continuously. However, in the literature, most methods for prioritising requirements and managing risks are more suited to traditional development. This raises the need for new tools and methodologies to meet CD challenges. As these challenges constantly evolve, project management must be able to control CD, changes in the determination of requirements and the accompanying risks. Based on a systematic literature review, we define the key features of CD and develop a conceptual three-dimensional framework that can be used to understand the organisational needs of RRM for CD.

Authors: S. Bakshi; S. Krishna
Year: 2009

Virtual teams are predicted by many to be the form that is much more flexible than traditional teams. In this paper we execute empirical analysis of the theoretical framework presented earlier. Data was collected through an online survey of the Information Systems specific interest group of Project Management Institute, and executive students at IIM Bangalore. Arguing flexibility to be a formative construct, the data was analyzed using PLS. It was found that virtuality positively and significantly affects flexibility, moderated by technology infrastructure, and team experience.
Global Software Development: Current Challenges and Solutions
Authors: Juho Eskeli; J. Maurolagoitia
Year: 2016

Global, collaborative and distributed development is increasingly common in software development. This way of working, widely adopted by big corporations has been also included lately in smaller organisations including SMEs. The traditional product and software development technologies do not correctly support this way of working, e.g., time and cultural differences add new requirements for these technologies. The Prisma project aims to provide the tools, experiences and guidelines to help companies that face these issues in their everyday project management. One of its main outcomes is the PSW (Prisma Workbench). PSW is a platform and a set of tools that addresses the issues that need to be overcome in adoption of a collaborative and distributed development in organisations. This paper will present the results of the study performed during the Prisma Project and highlight the features of the PSW that will facilitate global collaborative software development teams to work more effectively in this kind of environments.
