Applying the PRiSM™ Methodology to Raise Awareness of the Importance of Using Sustainable Project Management Practices in Organizations
Authors: Ana Moutinho; Paulo Sousa; Anabela Tereso
Year: 2025

Sustainability has become crucial in today’s business landscape. Customers, suppliers, partners, and investors are increasingly demanding that companies be aware of their impacts on the environment and society. Achieving sustainability in business operations, including social, economic, and environmental aspects, is one of the major challenges for companies today. Integrating sustainability into project management fosters the development of more sustainable and responsible projects, considering environmental, social, and economic aspects. This integration allows for benefits such as risk and operational cost reduction, strengthening of the company’s reputation, and gaining stakeholders’ trust. This study takes an exploratory approach, focusing on a pilot test to investigate how the PRiSM™ (Projects Integrating Sustainable Methods) methodology can be applied in a business context to assess the level of maturity of sustainable project management practices and thus raise awareness of the importance of these issues. PRiSM™ was developed by GPM® Global (Global Project Management, Lees Summit, MO, USA) in 2013 to help organizations integrate project processes with sustainable initiatives and it is based on the P5 Standard, which incorporates tangible tools and methods to manage the balance between finite resources, social responsibility, and delivery of sustainable project outcomes. Based on the PRiSM™ methodology and the P5 Standard (2nd Edition), a comprehensive questionnaire was developed under the Portuguese Project Management Observatory® to assist companies in assessing their performance in terms of sustainable practices, resulting in a sustainable maturity level. The questionnaire aimed to evaluate companies in four impact categories: product/process impacts, social impacts, economic impacts, and environmental impacts. The results, obtained from 30 respondents, indicated that the majority of organizations achieved medium-level ratings, with an overall average of 65%. However, some still showed unsatisfactory performance, with a minimum score of 14%, indicating there is still a long way to go for the full integration of sustainability. Based on participants’ feedback, the study found that many recognized the importance of sustainability but were unaware of how to integrate sustainability practices into their project management activities, highlighting the importance of promoting education and raising awareness about sustainable project management practices. The findings, while based on a limited sample, provide valuable initial insights into the potential of PRiSM™ to foster sustainability in project management. This research underscores the need for further studies to expand and validate these preliminary conclusions.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, most universities needed to move to online teaching and learning, in some cases with very limited knowledge or experience in running online programmes. Engaging students online has become an imminent challenge that universities and academics are still trying to address. This paper reports on the findings from the experience of making the transition from an established collaborative learning activity delivered in a face-to-face environment to online collaborative learning supported by Microsoft Teams. Supported by an action research methodology, the paper evaluates this experience by comparing the outcomes of students' learning in the previous face-to-face and the online activities and the suitability of Microsoft Teams as a learning environment for collaborative learning for a postgraduate project management module. This research contributes to the growing knowledge of technology-enhanced learning by shedding light on how Microsoft Teams can support active and online collaborative learning in Higher Education.
An effective demonstration for group collaboration based on storyline visualization technology
Authors: Qiang Lu; Xiang-Yuan Zhu; Li Liu; Shu-Bo Cao
Year: 2014

The existing project management software cannot demonstrate the relation of the group collaboration during a project, while they are useful for many projects to control their progress and process. Given their drawbacks, this paper introduces the storyline, a visualization technology that can make up the limitation. The complex relation of group collaboration can be visualized by the storyline layout through the mappings of being from the developer's entity object to lines, from the job tasks to the inter-sessions, and from the cooperative relation among the entity objects to the distance between lines. The result shows that the storyline works well in the project management as they can display the cooperative relation among the developers clearly and intuitively. Based on that, we can analyze the cooperative relationship of developers so as to improve the efficiency of the project management.

Year: 2016

The main aim of this pilot study is to investigate management anti-patterns encountered in IT innovation projects, in the long run. A quantitative research methodology was chosen. A group of software project managers in industrial innovation projects were requested to fill in a questionnaire. The collected data revealed anti-patterns, which were compared and contrasted to the anti-patterns mostly found in traditional software projects. Some anti-patterns encountered in conventional software projects were also identified in innovation projects. Additionally, a new possible anti-pattern was identified and further investigated. The new anti-pattern regards the management of team creativity and is considered as an anti-pattern, because it can be an obstacle in teamwork progress, having negative consequences. A remedy solution is recommended as a re-factoring and recovering management strategy. Overall, this pilot study offers a set of practical guidelines for project managers, and innovation project managers in particular; this is a current IT management need that must be addressed in the near future. Further, there is a gap of relevant knowledge in the field and there are no similar studies regarding software project management anti-patterns in innovation projects in the literature. Therefore, this work could be considered as the first ever pilot research study, which investigates and reports on anti-patterns in innovation projects. Finally, we mention our future plans and outline how this initial data gathering can be useful for constructing a research project to find out more on the above research needs and IT development metarequirements.

Authors: Hwee-Joo Kam; Greg Gogolin
Year: 2012

Freshman and sophomore college students, who have just begun their academic careers in Computer Science, are challenged by difficult courses while having little insight about the job demands in the information technology (IT) industry. This study adopts an out-of-class learning approach to discover how out-of-class learning (1) shapes students' perception of learning computer science subjects, (2) promotes understanding related to the challenges in IT professions, and (3) closes the gap between computer science education and the required IT skills in industry. The preliminary findings of this study demonstrate that interviewing IT professionals sheds light on the challenges of working in IT. Subsequently, students realize the critical skills in support of future success. This study proposes that course work in project management is a useful mechanism to bridge between the critical skills and technical skills, thereby better preparing students for careers in IT.

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications are changing the way businesses are run. IT Offshoring is changing the way IT Organizations are run. However, both ERP implementations and IT offshoring are fraught with risks. When both ERP implementation and IT offshoring happen together, the risks get even more pronounced. The paper presents the critical susses factors of offshoring ERP implementation which are common in ERP as well as in offshoring case. The study is carried out with the sample interviews conducted in Switzerland. The findings revels that eight factor are critical while considering offshoring ERP implementation, namely customer interaction skills, business process skills, ERP package skills, scalability, language, project management, choice of work to be offshored, personnel split between onsite/offshore are. We used semistructured open ended interviews with interpretive analysis for identifying the factors.

Objective: To analyze the effect and main gaps of each stage in the AIDS prevention cascade for men who have sex with men (MSM) provided in intervention projects supported by the China AIDS Fund for non-governmental organizations (CAFNGO) and provide suggestions to improve the quality of cascade services and project management. Methods: Data were collected through the CAFNGO management information system and field interviews to analyze the differences in the number of MSM receiving HIV testing and confirming tests, the newly reported patients, and the number of antiviral treatment (ART) referrals of newly established reported patients among different social organization service areas. A service chain chart was also drawn. Results: Between 2016 and 2020, 1 508 MSM intervention projects were funded by CAFNGO, including 1 183 234 MSM being mobilized to receive HIV testing. However, only 68.8% (1 183 234/1 719 139) of the testing capacity of social organizations was covered by these projects. As a result, 55 783 HIV-positive MSM were detected in preliminary screening, and only 86.6% (48 327/55 783) received confirming tests. The proportion of newly reported infections was 3.8% (45 347/1 183 234). The ratio of antiviral treatment (ART) referrals for newly reported patients between 2017 and 2020 was 89.8% (32 719/36 444). 75.8%(1 143/1 508) of total MSM intervention projects were implemented by community-based organizations (Non-registered civil affairs departments). In comparison, organizations registered in civil affairs departments took up 24.2% (365/1 508) of the total MSM intervention projects. No significant difference was noticed in the proportion of newly reported infected (3.8% and 3.8%) and the ratio of ART referrals (89.7% and 89.9%) between community-based organizations and registered organizations' projects. But these two proportions are significantly different between these two types of organizations in some areas in China. Conclusions: The AIDS prevention cascade established in CAFNGO has effectively promoted the early detection and treatment of infected MSM. However, CAFNGO needs more financial support to extend testing coverage for MSM. Meanwhile, confirmation testing for positives in preliminary screening and ART referrals needs to be improved for newly reported patients. In addition, various capacity building needs to be provided for different social organizations.

The results indicated that, in a project-based online group environment, unique characteristics exist for leadership style and individual role, goal setting and project management, accountability and commitment, peer supportive relationships, individual accomplishment and group accomplishments, and mixed gender and race group preference.
Exploring the role of requirements engineering in improving risk management
Authors: J. Chisan; D. Damian
Year: 2005

There is limited evidence (Brooks (1987), Fosberg and Mooz (2000) and S. Robertson and J. Robertson (1999)) which supports claims in literature that requirements engineering (RE) can have positive effects on an organization's ability to manage project risk. Such evidence can serve to motivate industrial adoption of requirements engineering techniques, but it can also contribute to our understanding of the role of RE in supporting project management activities. This paper presents an analysis of the causal relationship between RE practice and benefits in risk management in one software organization that revised its RE process and enjoyed improvements in its project management activities. In particular, we present insights from our investigation of the interaction between the RE process and the processes of project planning and SQA. We found that elements of the RE process such as feature decomposition, structure documentation and traceability links improved feature sizing and enabled effective change management, contributing to improved risk management activities. These findings are useful to practitioners in similar software organizations whose product release objectives originate from a remote business unit and who currently suffer from significant feature creep.
Software Project Costing: Coupling CMMI and PMBOK into a Generic Costing Framework
Authors: Liran Edelist; R. Gelbard; J. Kantor
Year: 2012

This study puts forward a generic and comprehensive costing framework for software projects that aims for simplicity. This is achieved by integrating commonly used CMMI Capability Maturity Model Integration and PMBOK Project Management Body of Knowledge costing concepts in a broader organizational context. The costing framework comprises three layers: costing targets, costing activities, and policy evaluation. While the first two layers are derived from commonly used software engineering elements, the third integrates an organizational perspective through software engineers, project managers, accountants and top management. Employment of CMMI and PMBOK standards allows for easy adoption of the proposed model by organizations that are already relying on these standards.
