BACKGROUND
The development of new antidepressant drugs has reached a plateau. There is an unmet need for faster, better, and safer medications, but as placebo-response rates rise, effect sizes shrink, and more studies fail or are negative, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly reluctant to invest in new drug development because of the risk of failure. In the absence of an identifiable human pathophysiology that can be modeled in preclinical studies, the principal point of leverage to move beyond the present dilemma may be improving the information gleaned from well-designed proof-of-concept (POC) studies of new antidepressant drugs with novel central nervous system effects. With this in mind, a group of experts was convened under the auspices of the University of Arizona Department of Psychiatry and Best Practice Project Management, Inc.


PARTICIPANTS
Forty-five experts in the study of antidepressant drugs from academia, government (U.S. Food and Drug Administration and National Institute of Mental Health), and industry participated. EVIDENCE/CONSENSUS PROCESS: In order to define the state of clinical trials methodology in the antidepressant area, and to chart a way forward, a 2-day consensus conference was held June 21-22, 2007, in Bethesda, Md., at which careful reviews of the literature were presented for discussion. Following the presentations, participants were divided into 3 workgroups and asked to address a series of separate questions related to methodology in POC studies. The goals were to review the history of antidepressant drug trials, discuss ways to improve study design and data analysis, and plan more informative POC studies.


CONCLUSIONS
The participants concluded that the federal government, academic centers, and the pharmaceutical industry need to collaborate on establishing a network of sites at which small, POC studies can be conducted and resulting data can be shared. New technologies to analyze and measure the major affective, cognitive, and behavioral components of depression in relationship to potential biomarkers of response should be incorporated. Standard assessment instruments should be employed across studies to allow for future meta-analyses, but new instruments should be developed to differentiate subtypes and symptom clusters within the disorder that might respond differently to treatment. Better early-stage POC studies are needed and should be able to amplify the signal strength of drug efficacy and enhance the quality of information in clinical trials of new medications with novel pharmacologic profiles.
Incentives in New Product Development Projects and the Role of Target Costing
Authors: Jürgen Mihm
Year: 2010

This paper investigates how self-optimizing engineers affect new product development (NPD) project outcomes and development times. A variety of widely used NPD project management approaches, including heavyweight project management, may allow or even encourage engineers to introduce late design changes and exhibit weak cost compliance, reducing the product's profit or competitiveness. Providing specifically designed incentives for individuals can eliminate such encouragement, and thus improve cost compliance and project timeliness. This paper discusses several practical incentive schemes, including profit-sharing contracts and component-level target costing. For many industrial projects, component-level target costing makes the most efficient use of available information to optimize project outcomes and reduce development times.

ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to apply bibliometric network analysis to the Lean Production (LP) field of study in order to investigate the strategic themes and the scientific evolution structure. To perform this research, VOSviewer and SciMAT were used to analyse 4,412 documents from 1977 to 2019. The performance analysis of publications, researchers, journals, universities and countries related to LP were measured quantitatively and qualitatively. 24 themes were presented and classified according to their centrality (importance) and density (development), and the intellectual structure of each theme is presented. Lastly, the scientific evolution structure shows the most important clusters over time. The results show that the most important themes are related to manufacturing processes, industrial management, project management and human aspects. Finally, we provide new perspectives to assist researchers in the detection of research opportunities and literature gaps in the field of LP.

We propose PM (Project Management) patterns to prevent schedule delays caused by changes in requirements on empirical studies. Changes or late elicitation of requirements during the design, coding and test processes are one of the most serious risks, which may delay project schedules. However, changes and late elicitation of requirements are usually accepted during development processes. Therefore, the PM methods for preventing schedule delays caused by changes and late elicitation of requirements during development processes are an important area of study. In this study, we examined the actual conditions of various projects which succeeded in preventing schedule delays resulting from changes and late elicitation of requirements during development processes. We were able to extract various typical PM techniques for preventing these schedule delays. The techniques, known as “PM patterns”, were also applied to other projects. The patterns were arranged on a two-dimensional framework. We discuss a framework of PM patterns aimed at solving the problems caused by changes in requirements.
Environmental Aspects of Project Management
Authors: N. Vyas
Year: 2008

The primary challenge in project management is to achieve all of the defined project goals and objectives while adhering to typical constraints which are usually scope, quality, time, and budget. Often, the basic flaw in project planning and design is the complete neglect or minimal consideration of environmental and social costs and dependence only on economic analysis for project preparation and investment. A failure to understand and internalize adverse or negative impacts on environment during project preparation could lead to several undesirable consequences, which may ultimately jeopardize the very objectives of growth and development for which the project was proposed. In this paper, the author stresses upon the need for environmental management for successful project completion and discusses the challenges of addressing the key environmental issues. Environmental management is not just about the ‘trees and bees’ but also about health, safety, profits, quality assurance, reduced risks to reputation, and increased global competitiveness, states the author. Overall, it is about efficiency and reducing environmental and legal liabilities. It is argued that sound environment management reduces the unforeseen obstacles and bottlenecks that may otherwise hamper the delivery of project objectives while helping to improve the environmental performance of project operations. The key environmental issues resulting from agricultural, mining, manufacturing, and urban operations include: severe degradation of air quality due to industrial and vehicular pollution contamination of land and water resources due to pesticides, fertilizers, and dumping of hazardous wastes depletion of raw material reserves contamination of surface and ground water sources due to discharge of sewage and industrial effluents deforestation. Environmental impact assessment (EIA) study is suggested as a tool for formulating an environment management plan. EIA should, however, not be treated just as a tool for regulatory compliance but as an instrument for improving project management per se with proper expertise, time, and budget allocations made for the purpose. In environmental management, the moot question is: How to get started? The author's advice is to start small and simple and gradually turn them into action plans for a worksite and subsequently up-scale them for the entire company. It is ultimately the actions taken at personal or community level or as a project manager that matters the most when it comes to environmental sustainability. Policies and plans merely show the way. It is becoming increasingly important to make environmental management an economic driver that would serve to minimize environmental damages and promote resource efficiency and cost savings to businesses.

In recent years, knowledge of Agile project management principles has become increasingly important due to its prominence in the software engineering space. Industry across the globe uses Agile project management principles such as Scrum and Kanban for tracking and managing projects. In spite of this importance, the academic space is devoid of a suitable platform to allow students to develop mastery in Agile while in school. In this paper, we propose the implementation of an Agile project management platform designed specifically for academic settings. The platform, named TROFOS, aims to provide students with an experience of industry’s leading platforms, such as Jira while incorporating academic-specific features such as retrospective and faculty feedback. Ultimately, TROFOS seeks to enhance project management skills among students and improve the overall quality of academic projects. We have implemented this platform, and students have used it for different projects—both course projects and final year projects. We have conducted an extensive survey evaluation of the platform using the standard UTAUT model. A survey was constructed to find out, whether TROFOS helps with software engineering education, how well users are adapting to and accepting TROFOS if they have previously been used to other tools, and how we can improve in each of the 4 areas (performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions) to make TROFOS more widely accepted by its target users in the future. The survey revealed that TROFOS meets various design objectives very well.

Year: 2024


Purpose
Project complexity (PC) governs project success, but the project management literature primarily focuses on performance measures and rarely examines the complexity factors, especially for megaprojects. This paper aims to determine the most significant complexity factors for the railway megaprojects in India.


Design/methodology/approach
A mixed approach using the Delphi and best–worst method (BWM) helped to identify, validate and determine the most critical factors that require intervention to diminish variance from project performance.


Findings
The BWM resulted in stakeholder management, followed by organizational and technological complexity as significant complexity factors, and the varied interests of the stakeholder as the most important among the 40 subfactors.


Practical implications
The finding indicates the necessity for strategic, tactical and operational-level interventions to effectively manage the complexity affecting project efficiency because of the varied stakeholders. This paper will guide the project and general managers to prioritize their resources to handle complexity for effective project performance measured in terms of time, cost and quality and help them make strategic decisions. The research findings of this study are expected to help researchers and practitioners in better planning and smoother execution of projects. In addition, this study would help the researchers formulate policies and strategies for better handling of the projects.


Originality/value
This study adds significant value to the body of knowledge related to PC in megaprojects in developing countries. The result of the investigation underlined that nine complexity factors and seven unique subfactors, namely, the sustainable environment, timely availability of information, communication in both directions, interdepartmental dependency and coordination, design, statutory norms, site challenges, socioeconomic conditions, the tendency of staff to accept new technology and the frequent changes in the requirements of stakeholders are significant in railway megaprojects. The BWM is applied to rank the complexity factors and subfactors in the case area.

Over the past decade, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative technology, particularly in project management. This study examines its impact in Latin America, with a focus on Ecuador. There is significant interest in AI adoption in Ecuador, driven by favorable policies, economic conditions, and technological advancements. Most respondents are educators, scientific researchers, and department heads, highlighting the relevance of AI in educational and scientific fields (Fernández & Fernández, 2019; Hassan, Khairudin, & Nasir, 2019).
Large organizations, with more than 200 employees, are better positioned to adopt AI due to their greater financial and technical resources (Chui, Henke, & Miremadi, 2020). However, significant barriers persist, such as technological limitations, budgetary constraints, and a lack of managerial support, which complicate its implementation (Smith & Lazarus, 2021).
Despite these barriers, most respondents anticipate a significant increase in AI adoption over the next five years, although doubts and challenges remain that must be addressed to ensure successful and sustained implementation (Jones, Patel, & Smith, 2019). This analysis underscores both the opportunities and challenges that AI faces in project management in Ecuador, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive approach to maximize its benefits.

Authors: Yingzi Li; Xiaodong Zhang; Shuo Zhang
Year: 2011

Resource conflict resolution of the collaborative product development process is a crucial problem for the project management. To describe the arbitration behavior in the agent-based simulation, an arbitration agent was introduced and modeled. Some arbitration strategies were constructed according to the task utility and resource matching degree. Then, the agent and it's strategies were integrated into the agent-based simulation platform. Some comparative experiments were carried out and the results were generated. The results show that the proposed strategies were reasonable and effective in dealing with the resource conflict problems in collaborative product development process.

Authors: Fezile Özdamlı; Sualeha Sultan; Tolgay Karanfiller
Year: 2023

Technology is used to keep track of things and timing and make the best decision on the information available. Project Management (PM) has to offer through its various software and technical tools. PM software has always been compared to the traditional ways of libraries. If a library has always been compared to its traditional ways of doing projects, PM brings systematic strategies to the planned project of libraries from beginning to end. The main objective of this research is to find a systematic literature review on the software of PM, the -advantages of using PM in libraries, and the challenges faced by the libraries using PM. This research used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) to illustrate the systematic literature review. The terms “Project Management” and (“library” OR “libraries”) were applied to the advanced research of the five databases: Ebscohost, Emerald, Scopus, WOS, and ScienceDirect were selected databases to ensure relevant studies were captured. The main finding from the research is that using Project Management software in libraries has many advantages, such as clarity of planning and a good understanding of technical tools and software, despite many challenges. It provides end-to-end planning and can be adapted to frequent changes to increase productivity and success. In addition, unlike other studies, this study indicates the missing gap in the literature, and it is hoped that it will guide the researchers.

Project scoping is a changeable problem in project management. In this paper, a graph-based constraints analysis approach was proposed to solve the project scoping problem. It firstly build a directed graph based on the dependencies among the requirements, secondly update the connected graph based on user defined inclusive and exclusive constraints, thirdly find the connected sub-graph set, fourthly verify the constraints for sub-graph and determine all candidate sub-graph sets, and finally determine solution for the project scoping problem through solving a Knapsack problem. The proposed approach was illustrated through a simple example and validated by real cases. Through the experiments, the proposed approach is efficient and validate in practice.
