Sustainable procurement - Extending project procurement concepts and processes based on PMBOK
Authors: Omarlyn Ojeda; Peter J. A. Reusch
Year: 2013

This paper focuses on the extension of project procurement concepts and processes with the aim of integrating sustainable procurement into the project management methodology provided by the PMBOK framework. The starting point is to include sustainability into the organisational structure. Subsequently, a bridge is built between the organisations' sustainability principles and the project management methodology provided by the PMBOK Guidelines. The PMBOK Guidelines are carefully analysed and the key Knowledge Areas were identified. Integration, Procurement and Quality Management are at the centre of this research. The Initiating Process Group was extended, as well as the process Develop Project Management Plan from the Planning Process Group which was extended to include the Project Sustainability Guidelines as well as the Plan Procurements. Classification standards and e-procurement can be highlighted as one of the most important additions. The Executing Process Group was also considered and extensions were proposed to include the quality standards. Monitoring and Controlling comprised the updates of the suggested sustainability guidelines and change requests in order to ensure they meet the project needs and requirements. Finally it is suggested that a project sustainability report is produced once the project is complete. A similar output was added to the Close Procurement Process in the form of a project procurement sustainability report.

Authors: Isaac Sakyi Damoah; Cynthia Akwei; I. Amoako; David Botchie
Year: 2018

This study explores how corruption impacts the failure of government projects in developing countries with evidence from the Ghanaian context. This study solicits the perceptions of project management practitioners (14), contractors (6), government officials (clients; 5), and the general public (5) on the subject. The findings indicate that corruption influences government project failure on all the failure criteria that were used for the evaluation. However, corruption influences failure at two different levels: project management and product phase. At the project management level, corruption has direct influence, while at the product phase level, the influence is indirect.
Reported implementation lessons from a national quality improvement initiative; Productive Ward: Releasing Time to Care™. A qualitative, ward‐based team perspective
Authors: M. White; T. Butterworth; J. Wells
Year: 2017

AIM
To explore the experiences of participants involved in the implementation of the Productive Ward: Releasing Time to Care™ initiative in Ireland, identifying key implementation lessons.


BACKGROUND
A large-scale quality improvement programme Productive Ward: Releasing Time to Care™ was introduced nationwide into Ireland in 2011. We captured accounts from ward-based teams in an implementation phase during 2013-14 to explore their experiences.


METHODS
Semi-structured, in-depth interviews with a purposive sample of 24 members of ward-based teams from nine sites involved in the second national phase of the initiative were conducted. Interviews were analysed and coded under themes, using a seven-stage iterative process.


RESULTS
The predominant theme identified was associated with the implementation and management of the initiative and included: project management; training; preparation; information and communication; and participant's negative experiences. The most prominent challenge reported related to other competing clinical priorities.


CONCLUSIONS
Despite the structured approach of Productive Ward: Releasing Time to Care™, it appears that overstretched and busy clinical environments struggle to provide the right climate and context for ward-based teams to engage and interact actively with quality improvement tools, methods and activities.


IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT
Findings highlight five key aspects of implementation and management that will help facilitate successful adoption of large-scale, ward-based quality improvement programmes such as Productive Ward: Releasing Time to Care™. Utilising pre-existing implementation or quality frameworks to assess each ward/unit for 'readiness' prior to commencing a quality improvement intervention such as Productive Ward: Releasing Time to Care™ should be considered.

A Multi-Criteria Assessment Model for Cooperative Technology Transfer Projects from Universities to Industries
Authors: Rui Xiong; Hongyi Sun; Shufen Zheng; Sichu Liu
Year: 2024

Cooperative Technology Transfer (CTT) is a technology transfer model where universities and enterprises jointly participate throughout the entire process of technology transfer activities. Most discussions focus on its mechanisms and influencing factors, yet a framework to guide CTT projects in practice is still lacking. This study proposes an assessment model based on the life-cycle of CTT projects, covering the initial cooperation relationship, project management during the mid-term, and technological achievements at the end. The model was evaluated by 14 experts first and then validated through two CTT projects in China. Gray Relation Analysis was employed to calculate the weights of different factors based on their relative importance, while the Dempster–Shafer theory was utilized to combine evidence from various sources and address the uncertainty in the assessment. The results of the case analysis indicate that the attitudes of universities and enterprises are considered critical in influencing the success of CTT projects, while management issues that arise during the projects can pose potential risks. This research serves as an applied exploration and has three functions. Firstly, the model can be used as a feasibility study before the project commences. Secondly, it can be utilized to analyze and improve potential issues during the project. Finally, it can be used for a post-project experience summary.
Using Actor Object Operations Structures to Understand Project Requirements Complexities
Authors: J. Balikuddembe; Anet Potgieter
Year: 2008

Some of the major challenges still facing the software industry are use of inappropriate methodology, lack of customer involvement, project complexity, and requirements volatility and management. In this work we propose the use of the complex adaptive system software engineering framework (CASSE) that analyzes value-related aspects of systems development - addressing satisfaction of all project requirements as a measure for project success. We specifically look at actor object operation structures (AOOS) and how they impact on the complexity of project requirements. We demonstrate our approach by analyzing use-case artifact properties and how a change in any properties can impact on project management during the development process. Our results show that the hidden interrelationships enhance implementation prioritization and schedule optimization.Our major contribution is in demonstrating that alternative engineering approaches that analyze AOOSs can enhance the way we understand project complexities, increase customer commitment and generate project value and success.

Authors: Muhammad Azeem Akbar; Víctor Leiva
Year: 2023

Effective management of development projects is crucial to delivering high‐quality software within time and budget constraints. However, organizing geographically distributed software development activities presents unique challenges, including difficulties in face‐to‐face interaction and coordination. To assist the global software development community in updating and developing new project management techniques, identifying and prioritizing best practices is essential. This study aims to develop a taxonomy based on the prioritization of management practices for software development, drawing from empirical data. Fifty‐five best practices associated with the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) fields were identified from the existing literature. The study also empirically examines the acceptability and relevance of these practices within the industry. An analytic hierarchy process within a fuzzy system is employed to prioritize these practices based on their importance in managing global software development.

Authors: Kevin Mutisya Kasoli; J. Mutiso
Year: 2020

The study objective was to assess the determinants of sustainability of youth empowerment projects in Machakos County, Kenya; with the specific objectives of the study being to evaluate how project stakeholder engagement, project management skills, project funding and project scope management determines the sustainability of youth empowerment projects within Machakos County. The study was guided by stakeholder, skills, fund accounting, and control theories. A semi-structured self- administered questionnaire was used to collect primary data from project officers, managers and other key stakeholders within 73 youth empowerment programmes, which was boosted with secondary data sources. The data was analysed by qualitative and quantitative means using SPSS, with an OLS regression being done to ascertain the connection among the study variables. The study found that project management skills, stakeholders’ engagement, project scope management, and project funding are strong determinants of project sustainability with the factors showing high correlation coefficients which were both positive and statistically significant. It was concluded that project management skills, stakeholders’ engagement, project scope management, and project funding positively influences project sustainability. Improvements in these four spheres would lead to improvements in project sustainability. The study therefore recommended that future youth empowerment programmes should enhance their project sustainability by observing the four determinants, which is project management skills, stakeholders’ engagement, project scope management, and project funding so as to improve on project performance and impact within the target beneficiaries. The study also suggested that organizations implementing youth empowerment programmes should invest more on researching the current trends in project management skills, stakeholders’ engagement, project scope management, and project funding so as to realize effective and successful implementation of these practices within their organizations. The study suggested further research within more sectors in Kenya such as education, children welfare, wildlife and environmental conservation among others and within the region to confirm these findings in a different and wider context.

Information Systems for Large-Scale Event Management: A Case Study
Authors: Boon-Yuen Ng; A. Kankanhalli
Year: 2013

Information systems (IS) have considerable use in supporting large-scale communication and coordination. This is especially important in contexts such as major event and crisis management which have complex requirements on people and technology. IS facilitate the dissemination of real-time information and coordination among decision makers, and thereby the management of the entire event. This paper describes a case of management and deployment of IS for a large-scale event as an exemplar in this area. Singapore won the bid to host a major international event, the Annual Meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank, collectively known as S2006. However, there were complex requirements and daunting challenges to be overcome in managing such a high-profile and large-scale event. The paper describes how the Committee in charge delivered the IT infrastructure and systems for this large-scale event with 23,700 participants from 184 countries. It suggests several lessons for IT executives in charge of managing large-scale events, mainly for planned (e.g., sports events) and to some extent for unplanned (e.g., Japan tsunami or BP oil spill crisis) events. Particularly, it highlights the need for advance preparedness, use of IS for situation awareness, cultivating relationships for communication and coordination, and the importance of vendor management and project management skills. These lessons are valuable for IS deployment for large-scale communication and coordination for future mega-events and to some degree for preparedness for unforeseen events.

This paper presents an integrative distributed project management approach for product development. The core of the integrative model is the Triple C model of project management, which presents a systematic structure for Communication, Cooperation, and Coordination across product development functions. The achievement of lower product development cycles requires strategic implementation of project management techniques. The level of communication, cooperation, and coordination required for effective product development can be facilitated by using distributed project management.
Governance of Mixed Agile/Traditional Digital Transformation Programs
Authors: Caroline Kiselev; R. Winter
Year: 2020

While agile principles and methods have become mainstream in IT solution development, they have also immersed project management and organizational design. This process, however, is gradual so that management and governance practice of digital transformation programs (DTP) often have to deal with a coexistence of agile and traditional components. Such coexistence leads to tensions as some agile principles and methods are incompatible with or even contrary to their traditional counterparts. Drawing on existing discourses on tensions and governance, the purpose of this paper is to (1) identify and analyze such tensions in the context of complex DTP, (2) explore the corresponding challenges for program governance, and (3) derive requirements to enhance current DTP governance practice to deal with those challenges. The data gathered from an in-depth revelatory dual-case study of large DTPs let us identify 18 tensions, 17 corresponding governance challenges, and derive 10 requirements for a “change-mode-agnostic” governance system.

Year: 2023

This study examines Pakistan's public engineering projects' success based on project complexity and management expertise, using 100 questionnaires and developing hypotheses to evaluate organisational, technical, and environmental factors. Results indicate that project performance is positively linked to Project Management (PM) competence, underscoring the significance of skilled project managers in achieving favourable outcomes. Furthermore, leadership, management skills, communication, ethics, and integrity are identified as key drivers of project performance. On the other hand, technical and organisational complexities were discovered to have a negative influence, although environmental complexity did not significantly affect project performance. Several complexities, such as project objectives, tasks, and economic conditions, emerged as influential factors affecting project execution. This research contributes to PM theory, offering practical insights beneficial for project managers overseeing significant engineering endeavours and other professionals in this field. On a broader scale, the findings may inform governmental policies to enhance project performance, including qualifications for project managers. This study provides valuable guidance for addressing project complexities and improving project success within Pakistan's public engineering projects.
