The Effects of Project Management Certification on the Triple Constraint
Authors: Joseph T. Catanio; G. Armstrong; Joanne M. Tucker
Year: 2013

This research paper describes key information technology IT project management activities in terms of project scope, time, and cost management, namely the triple constraint. The authors contend that the ability to properly manage and execute these activities is the quintessential component that oftentimes drives whether projects succeed or fail. The literature shows that IT projects have a dismal success rate but successful projects have been on the rise. The authors attempt to determine if the increase of successful projects correlates to the increase in the number of certified project managers. Empirical evidence is presented that indicates certified project managers do not perform project scope, time, and cost management activities better than project managers without professional certification credentials.

Purpose. Results of a needs assessment to determine priority topics and preferred formats for research training in pharmacy residency programs are reported. Summary. For pharmacists seeking advanced‐practice positions in academia, the ability to conduct practice‐based research is expected. Pharmacy residency programs are a primary recruitment source for these positions, but research training varies by residency site and available expertise. To help define the optimal content and format of resident research training, ASHP and the ASHP Research and Education Foundation conducted a needs assessment targeting postgraduate year 1 (PGY1) pharmacy residency directors (RPDs). The response rate was 36.5% (271 of 743 invitees); the information obtained was used to guide development of a Web‐based training series. Only 12% of the RPDs who participated in the survey indicated that currently available research training resources within their residency programs were sufficient. Sixty‐seven percent of surveyed RPDs agreed that a Web‐based training program would be a useful resource, and 81% agreed that the target audience should be pharmacy residents. Training topics of greatest interest to RPDs included (1) components of a resident research plan, (2) identifying research questions, (3) study design and sample selection, (4) project management, (5) data acquisition, cleaning, management, and analysis, and (6) presenting and publishing project results. Conclusion. This needs assessment clearly identified opportunities for improving the infrastructure and content of PGY1 residency research training. At a minimum, training programs should focus on practice‐based research concepts using readily accessible health‐system data systems and provide universal accessibility and sufficient flexibility to allow residency programs to integrate the training in a manner that works best for the program.
A Conceptual Framework to Discover IT Project Risks in Developing Economies: An Application to Cambodia and Uganda Contexts
Authors: O. Lee; J. Namayanja; Peng Xu
Year: 2020

Background: The information technology (IT) project environment in developing economies is complex and dynamic due to their unique social, technological, cultural, and political contexts. However, the unique risk factors involved in IT projects in developing economies have seldom been discussed in the literature. This study proposes a conceptual framework for identifying risks in IT projects by considering the unique characteristics of project management in developing economies. Method: 17 project cases were examined via a series of expert interviews in Cambodia and Uganda. The interview results were coded into a total of 257 risk incidents, which were used to validate the proposed framework. Particularly, the risk incidents of each economy were matched with 16 risk categories under the proposed framework. The matched results were conceptualized into unique risk factors of each economy. Results: Our results reveal that the most critical risks in both economies involve the lack of structured and standardized project management (PM) processes, and misunderstanding and poor decision-making due to the lack of project experience and technical knowledge in local stakeholders. In addition to these shared risk factors, the two economies show distinct risk granularities. Particularly, IT projects in Cambodia are more vulnerable to cultural uniqueness while IT projects in Uganda suffer more with complex stakeholder structures. Conclusions: The proposed framework serves as guidance to identify IT project risks in developing economies. Furthermore, the identified risk factors using the framework proposed by this study help project managers or stakeholders recognize and mitigate the unique IT project risk factors in the two developing economies.

This paper introduces the application and improvement of the Scrum method based on the agile development idea in software project management from the aspects of team building, requirements management, change management, and iterative process management, along with the characteristics of the Intelligent Health Hut software project. So as to improve the project management efficiency and project quality of Intelligent Health Hut.
Establishing and improving project management using assessment models for process capability and organizational maturity tutorial
Authors: Antonio Coletta
Year: 2011

This extended abstract explores the relationship between Project Management and the internationally recognized models/standard for process assessment and improvements CMMI (Capability Maturity Model Integration) and SPICE (ISO/IEC 15504).
 It provides initially an overview and some historical background on concepts and terminology related to the so called "process approach" (from ISO 9001) and the PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Act) cycle as applied in process improvement in many ISO standards.
 It then proceeds with an overview of the CMMI for models for process for improvement and its relationship with the international standard ISO/IEC 15504 better known as SPICE (Software Process Improvement and Capability dEtermination).
 The paper then explores how the Project Management activities are covered by these models and how they contribute to the improvement of all other processes by enabling their progression to higher levels of capability.
Project Management in The Times of Trust Crisis
Authors: Maja Jokiel; Grzegorz Jokiel; Robert Bobkier; Arkadiusz Babczuk
Year: 2024

Trust is one of the most important factors in organizational development and human interactions. It is not given by definition but rather created through dynamic interactions between individuals and institutions. Therefore, it is essential to acknowledge the existence of varying levels of trust. The aim of this article is to identify tactics and strategies that enable effective and efficient project management during times of trust crisis. Project / Methodology / Approach The authors have conducted a literature review of project management in a trust deficit situation. They have also presented case studies that illustrate the use of necessary techniques in projects at risk due to low trust conditions among stakeholders. The result of this research is a list of required actions (tactics and strategies), that can be employed in projects at risk to enhance the working conditions of managers and contractors. The uniqueness of this research paper is highlighted by the scarcity of dedicated articles in general, in which other authors aim to assist practitioners in managing trust crisis in their projects. Most research papers focus on the positive role of trust in organizations and projects, or how to build this trust. Meanwhile, projects are also conducted in unfavorable conditions, including a crisis of confidence. Therefore, methods and supporting tools are essential to support project managers and contractors in handling different situations, which constitute the primary value of this research paper.
Strategic Project Management in Nigerian Public Research Organisations: The Gap in Practice
Authors: C. Ugonna; E. Ochieng
Year: 2016

The aim of this study was to assess the application of strategic project management SPM in Nigerian public research organisations. A case study approach involving four R and D organisations in Nigeria was used. A total of 213 questionnaires were retrieved and these were analysed using quantitative research software, SPSS version 21. The results revealed that 95 per cent of respondents acknowledged that projects executed by public research organisations were planned, but the conventional project management practices were used instead of strategic project management SPM principles. In addition, it was found that the level of implementation of the project management practices were also inadequately implemented as such affected the organisation's performance adversely. As established in this study, the concept of strategy is changing and to address the factors that affect research and development project implementation, senior project practitioners need to pay more attention to strategic, operational and project risks.
On Regulatory and Organizational Constraints in Visualization Design and Evaluation
Authors: Anamaria Crisan; J. Gardy; T. Munzner
Year: 2016

Problem--based visualization research provides explicit guidance toward identifying and designing for the needs of users, but absent is more concrete guidance toward factors external to a user's needs that also have implications for visualization design and evaluation. This lack of more explicit guidance can leave visualization researchers and practitioners vulnerable to unforeseen constraints beyond the user's needs that can affect the validity of evaluations, or even lead to the premature termination of a project. Here we explore two types of external constraints in depth, regulatory and organizational constraints, and describe how these constraints impact visualization design and evaluation. By borrowing from techniques in software development, project management, and visualization research we recommend strategies for identifying, mitigating, and evaluating these external constraints through a design study methodology. Finally, we present an application of those recommendations in a healthcare case study. We argue that by explicitly incorporating external constraints into visualization design and evaluation, researchers and practitioners can improve the utility and validity of their visualization solution and improve the likelihood of successful collaborations with industries where external constraints are more present.
Positive Psychology in Information Technology Project Management: The Case of Bad News Reporting
Authors: Joseph Natovich; Zeev Derzy; R. Natovich
Year: 2013

This paper is an initial study on the impact of positive psychology on IT project management. Prior studies have found that High Psychological Positive Capital PsyCap of individuals is positively correlated with their work satisfaction and higher performance. PsyCap comprises individual's positive capacities of optimism, hope, resilience and efficacy. Drawing from Beck's cognitive theory, the authors hypothesized that High PsyCap PMs, when required to report bad news to a client, are inclined to consider the project-oriented reasons rather than the personal-oriented ones. As a result, they are more willing to report bad news compared to Low PsyCap PMs. A questionnaire consisting of four cases of bad news in IT projects, together with PsyCap tests, was distributed to professional communities on the internet. Data was collected from 42 respondents. The results of the statistical analysis have shown some support for our hypotheses. The research encourages more research on PsyCap contribution on various aspects of project performance and success. Such research may also have practical implications for PM recruiting and training.

Effective management of health crises requires public health preparedness and response, especially in urban settings where the complexity and scope of catastrophes provide considerable challenges. The integration of project management frameworks with public health policies is highlighted in this review, which investigates the optimization of emergency response systems using a project management methodology. The adoption of cutting-edge technologies that improve real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, and resource allocation such as artificial intelligence (AI), big data, and the Internet of Things (Io-T) is one of the main topics covered. The assessment also discusses how crucial it is to take ethics into account when making decisions, how to distribute resources fairly, and how to actively engage communities to build resilience. Technological and tool innovations in project management are emphasized as critical to enhancing response times and accommodating changing circumstances. The review also emphasizes the necessity of ongoing learning and development based on prior experiences to improve preparedness tactics and overall efficacy. Public health systems can respond to urban health emergencies in a more coordinated, equitable, and efficient manner by combining these components, which will eventually improve outcomes and resilience in impacted populations.

Authors: Novita Anggreani; X. Furuhitho; Sulardi Sulardi; A. Suparman; Wahyu Prakosa
Year: 2024

Construction projects are closely related to the development of human life needs. To meet this, construction projects must be processed professionally with good management and weight. As one of the functions and processes of activities in project management that greatly affect the final results of the project, planning has an important role in minimizing all irregularities that can occur during the project process. Earned Value is the concept of calculating the amount of costs according to the budget in accordance with the work that has been completed. Cost and time optimization planning is carried out on the Embarcadero Bintaro Apartment Construction Project with the aim of finding out the project performance index, estimated cost and time required, providing alternative solutions to overcome the delays that occur and creating an S curve due to acceleration. The results of the calculation using the Earned Value method show that the project is not running as planned, based on the overall CPI value of > 1. Meanwhile, the SPI value in the 10th week to the 32th week has a value of less than 1, this indicates that the project is experiencing delays. The acceleration carried out to catch up with the delay is to use the crashing method with the most effective acceleration alternative to be applied, namely the addition of 2 hours of overtime to the Column work, by saving the project duration of up to 9 days and an additional cost of Rp. 80.611.591,48 from the normal cost of Rp. 104.928.799.666,42 with a duration after acceleration of 572 days
Public Procurement Announcements in Spain: Regulations, Data Analysis, and Award Price Estimator Using Machine Learning
Authors: M. Rodríguez; V. R. Montequín; Francisco Ortega Fernández; J. Balsera
Year: 2019

The largest project managers and adjudicators of a country, both by number of projects and by cost, are public procurement agencies. Therefore, knowing and characterising public procurement announcements (tenders) is fundamental for managing public resources well. This article presents the case of public procurement in Spain, analysing a dataset from 2012 to 2018: 58,337 tenders with a cost of 31,426 million euros. Many studies of public procurement have been conducted globally or theoretically, but there is a dearth of data analysis, especially regarding Spain. A quantitative, graphical, and statistical description of the dataset is presented. Mainly, the analysis is of the relation between the award price and the bidding price. An award price estimator is proposed that uses the random forest regression method. A good estimator would be very useful and valuable for companies and public procurement agencies. It would be a key tool in their project management decision making. Finally, a similar analysis, employing a dataset from European countries, is presented to compare and generalise the results and conclusions. Hence, this is a novel study which fills a gap in the literature.
Toward Increasing Collaboration Awareness in Software Engineering Teams
Authors: Shuddha Chowdhury; Charles Walter; R. Gamble
Year: 2018

This Research Full Paper investigates collaborative personality traits in undergraduate software engineering teams. Online tools, such as Slack.com, provide team engagement and project management. While metrics can be defined for team and individual performance, it is difficult to measure collaboration and its impacts. Specifically, the forms of collaboration that lead to a successful software product should have associated metrics that correlate with individual performance, peer assessments, and project outcomes. Given the difficulty of assembling teams that best exemplify collaborative personality traits, it may be more beneficial for team members to recognize these traits so that their positive aspects can be exploited toward a successful product outcome. We employ IBM WatsonTM Personality Insights service to analyze team Slack.com posts collected from forty students across ten teams and two semesters of the capstone class. We correlate thirteen traits recognized for influencing collaboration with team grades, Sprint meeting check-in quality, and peer evaluations. The correlations show that each trait is related to at least one performance metric during at least one of the Sprints. We discuss the potential meaning of different traits emerging at different times during the semester and how that can inform strategies for software developer collaboration awareness and reward.

Tracking and management functionality gives opportunity the teams, tasks, resources, roles of members, reports, papers and etc. A documents repository is appointed to every project. The repositories could be classified, categorized (by many characteristics), shared (by preliminary defined access-conditions assigned by owner or author), to be searched (by complicated pre-saved logical queries with Boolean clauses) and etc. The role of each user may be precise specified in dependence of prescribed set of permeations and capabilities in different system contexts. The use of practical approach and modern mobile technologies is envisioned: three-play architecture (DAL, BBL and UIL) with implementation of C# and ASP.NET, server based Web and e-mobile WAP user controls.
Understanding Top Management Involvement in SDLC Phases
Authors: A. Alzayed; A. Khalfan
Year: 2021

One of the most essential factors in the success of system implementation has been recognized as top management support and involvement. Few research, however, have addressed the question of what sort of engagement is necessary through the various stages of the system development life cycle (SDLS). Given the many challenges to top management involvement and support in the various SDLC phases. The objective of this research was twofold. First, to examine the relationship between top management support and the phases of SDLC in order to give guidance for top management practices to ensure the success of information system projects. Second, this study sought to investigate approaches of motivating top management to participate in the SDLC as well as the barriers that hinder them from doing so. This study investigates the function of top management in various phases of system implementation, which will help us in understanding the support mechanism from top management in various SDLC stages. To achieve this goal, the author performed a qualitative study in five different firms in Kuwait, interviewing top management, project management, system analysts, and IT managers. The research established criteria for top management participation and indicated that top management should be involved primarily in the planning and implementation phases, as well as other phases as needed.
New approach to functional safety work products for advanced automotive projects
Authors: Piotr Mydlowski; S. Moskwa
Year: 2022

The dynamically developing automotive industry poses increasing challenges to manufacturers due to the increasing complexity of electronic systems used in cars and high safety requirements. The ISO 26262 standard gives guidelines for project management in the field of functional safety. It included lists of work products, which usually prepare fundamental documents in the field of functional safety, such as development interface agreement or functional safety plan, etc.. The degree of implementation of the mentioned work products helps in the arguments about the ultimate safety of the product. ISO 26262 is a standard aimed at the possibility of its wide application (also for the simplest products), unfortunately for highly complex products such as integrated safety systems, such high-level work products can be too general without contributing key information at the start of the project. The article presents a list of additional, more precise work products dedicated specifically to highly advanced safety systems in automotive projects. It can be used at the request for quote stage when building documentation for functional safety. In addition, the list of work products listed and introduced to the additional process helps to determine the scope of responsibilities in the organization at the beginning of the project. Especially where the issues of functional safety and safety of the intended functionality are presented. This helps to avoid the risk of security liability gaps with potentially fatal consequences for the end-user.
