Introducing Collaborative Practices in Small Medium Enterprises
Authors: D. Antonelli; P. Chiabert
Year: 2010

In an enterprise, collaborative working schemes are obtained only by adopting a suitable organization of the enterprise functions. At the informative level collaboration can be enabled by using suitable project management tools for the exchange of information that is the basis of collaboration. One of these tools is Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). On the basis of an exhaustive analysis of the PLM impact on the different aspects of the enterprise, the paper proposes an original methodology to evaluate the possibility of using PLM as framework in which exploit collaboration links within the enterprise. The methodology is not founded on the formal declared organization but on the actual data flows that are induced by the relations among the documents used to develop a project. Data are collected on the field using questionnaires. The links are made explicit by applying the hierarchical clustering with single linkage agglomerative technique. The attitude to the implementation of PLM is then analysed with respect to the organization and to the informative system. Such methodology is general and can be profitably applied to assist the PLM implementation in the enterprises.
Knowledge transfer between projects within project-based organizations: the project nature perspective
Authors: Xu Ren; Xiaofang Deng; Lihua Liang
Year: 2018

Purpose 
 
 
 
 
This paper aims to investigate how project nature affects the effectiveness of knowledge transfer between projects in project-based organizations (PBOs) and to analyze the roles of inter-project communication, transfer intention and information technology (IT) in the influencing process. 
 
 
 
 
Design/methodology/approach 
 
 
 
 
This paper adopted a questionnaire survey method to collect data from construction enterprises in China and subsequently proceeded to structural equation modeling analysis with a total of 261 samples. 
 
 
 
 
Findings 
 
 
 
 
The results indicate that the similarity of projects could promote the inter-project communication and improve transfer intention, which further influences knowledge transfer effectiveness positively within PBOs. The urgency of projects has a negative impact on inter-project communication and transfer intention. The temporality of projects also negatively affects inter-project communication. They consequently hinder the knowledge transfer behaviors between projects. Additionally, the application of IT improves the frequency of communication and makes up for the negative impact of geographical distance between projects on knowledge transfer. 
 
 
 
 
Practical implications 
 
 
 
 
Based on the results, a series of strategies is recommended to improve knowledge transfer effectiveness between projects, including standardizing project management, promoting information construction, establishing a post-project evaluation system and creating a shared culture, so that the competitive advantages of PBOs could be improved. 
 
 
 
 
Originality/value 
 
 
 
 
The study explores the factors influencing knowledge transfer between projects from the perspective of project nature and provides guidance for enhancing knowledge management and project management practices.

Authors: T. Tsatsarelis; I. Antonopoulos; A. Karagiannidis; G. Perkoulidis
Year: 2007

This study presents an assessment of the current status of open dumps in Laconia prefecture of Peloponnese in southern Greece, where all open dumps are targeted for closure by 2008. An extensive field survey was conducted in 2005 to register existing sites in the prefecture. The data collected included the site area and age, waste depth, type of disposed waste, distance from nearest populated area, local geographical features and observed practices of open burning and soil coverage. On the basis of the collected data, a GIS database was developed, and the above parameters were statistically analysed. Subsequently, a decision tool for the restoration of open dumps was implemented, which led to the prioritization of site restorations and specific decisions about appropriate restoration steps for each site. The sites requiring restoration were then further classified using Principal Component Analysis, in order to categorize them into groups suitable for similar restoration work, thus facilitating fund allocation and subsequent restoration project management.

Authors: J. Bakhshi; Hamed Golzad; Igor Martek; M. R. Hosseini; Eleni Papadonikolaki
Year: 2024

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the complexity factors associated with BIM-enabled projects. BIM has been widely promoted as a potential solution to numerous challenges that hinder productivity in construction projects, owing to its numerous advantages. Nevertheless, it is crucial to acknowledge the heightened complexity it introduces to project workflows, stakeholder coordination and information management.Design/methodology/approachThis study employs the Delphi method to identify and extract complexity factors specific to BIM-enabled projects. A panel of industry and academic experts is engaged to discern and prioritise these factors based on their expertise and knowledge.FindingsThe study reveals a comprehensive list of 34 complexity factors that significantly impact BIM-enabled projects. Among the most influential factors are laws and regulations, variety of procurement methods, technical capabilities of teams, project manager competence, information transfer capacity, range of project deliverables and diversity of project locations. The findings highlight the importance of these factors and emphasise the need for proactive and adaptive management to navigate their impact and achieve positive project outcomes.Originality/valueThis study introduces the DEBACCS framework, a metric-based model designed to understand and evaluate complexity within BIM-enabled projects. DEBACCS stands for seven key dimensions: diversity, emergence, belonging, autonomy, connectivity, context and size. These dimensions represent essential aspects for gauging project complexity. By applying the concept of complexity from project management to BIM, the study offers valuable insights for practitioners and researchers. It provides a unique perspective on the challenges and considerations associated with implementing and managing BIM in construction projects. The findings have practical value for practitioners, enabling them to better understand and address the implications of complexity in BIM-enabled projects, ultimately leading to improved project outcomes.

Year: 2024

The study focused on project management methods and outcomes in Uganda. FOWODE instance in Kabale District. The study's primary goals were to determine the impact of internal controls on project performance in the Kabale district, the impact of human resource management on project performance in the Kabale district, and finally, the impact of planning on project performance in the Kabale district. Using the sample size determination table by Morgan and Krejcie (1970), 103 respondents were chosen as the sample size from a total of 140 respondents. This suggests that in the Kabale district, planning is statistically significant to project performance.  The null hypothesis was thus disproved. The study's final finding for goal one was that financial controls and compliance are crucial for enhancing project performance. Improved internal controls will increase FOWODE's capacity to use resources efficiently, reduce waste, and provide expected results. Regarding the second goal, the study came to the conclusion that rewards methods should be in line with project objectives and staff values. Lastly, on objective three, It is essential to develop a clear project planning framework that outlines the project's objectives, goals, budget, timeline, and resource allocation.
Rural Income Transfer Programs and Rural Household Food Security in Ethiopia
Authors: Z. Uraguchi
Year: 2012

Based on household food security surveys conducted in Ethiopia, this study seeks to understand the roles and limitations of income transfer projects as determinants of households’ food security. By covering the Food-For-Work Programs (FFWPs) and the Productive Safety Net Programs (PSNPs), the study shows that these programs served as temporary safety nets for food availability, but they were limited in boosting the dietary diversity of households and their coping strategies. Households which participated in the programs increased their supply of food as a temporary buffer to seasonal asset depletion. However, participation in the programs was marred by inclusion error (food-secure households were included) and exclusion error (food-insecure households were excluded). Income transfer projects alone were not robust determinants of household food security. Rather, socio-demographic variables of education and family size as well as agricultural input of land size were found to be significant in accounting for changes in households’ food security. The programs in the research sites were funded through foreign aid, and the findings of the study imply the need to reexamine the approaches adopted by bilateral donors in allocating aid to Ethiopia. At the same time the study underscores the need to improve domestic policy framework in terms of engendering rural local institutional participation in project management.

MAIN APPROACHES TO IMPROVING THE UNIFIED DIGITAL INTEGRATED INFORMATION AND ANALYTICAL SYSTEM FOR MANAGING THE PROCESS OF RECONSTRUCTION OF REAL ESTATE, CONSTRUCTION AND INFRASTRUCTURE
Authors: Anna Kharchenko; Iryna Hudyma
Year: 2024

Summary. The Unified Digital Integrated Information and Analytical System for Managing the Process of Reconstruction of Real Estate, Construction and Infrastructure is studied. The concept of the “DREAM platform” is revealed. It has been shown that the DREAM platform collects, organizes and publishes open data at all stages of recovery projects in real time, implementing the highest standards of transparency and accountability. It is determined that the advantage of using the platform is that anyone, anywhere can monitor project performance and use this information to reduce risks, create accurate reporting, and improve overall project performance. A study of the regulatory framework was conducted, namely, the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine of 15.11.2022 No. 1286 “On the Implementation of a Pilot Project on the Creation, Implementation and Operation of the Unified Digital Integrated Information and Analytical System for Managing the Process of Reconstruction of Real Estate, Construction and Infrastructure”, which is the main regulatory document governing the functioning of the system. The interaction of the DREAM platform with other systems to which it belongs is studied: Register of Damaged and Destroyed Property; Geographic Information System for Regional Development (GIS), which is under development; Unified State System in the Field of Construction (e-Construction); Diia - a single portal of public services; Reconstruction Project Management System or user functionality; Prozorro - an electronic public procurement system; eContracting (under development); Unified State Register; Spending.gov.ua - a single web portal for the use of public funds and the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. The problems that exist today are identified. The main approaches to improving the DREAM platform are developed, including the creation of a separate account for contractors and feedback in the form of developed functionality directly on the website. The advantages and disadvantages of these approaches and the possibility of further application are investigated.
Keywords: Unified digital integrated information and analytical system, reconstruction, recovery, infrastructure, DREAM platform.

The role of CubeSat for education is well established. Nano satellites provides an appealing way for training students to space activities and more generally to complex technological projects, from fundamental and engineering science to project management and communication. Nano-satellites represent also an excellent alternative to instrumental testing. In this paper we explored the CubeSats as lab in space for biosciences such as astrobiology and astrochemistry.
Towards traceability from project management to system models
Authors: Jonas Helming; M. Kögel; Helmut Naughton
Year: 2009

Traceability is commonly known as the ability to describe and follow links between artifacts, e.g. between requirements and their corresponding part of the system design. These links are typically inside of the system specification. Very few approaches consider traceability between the system specification and project management artifacts. By introducing links between these two models, a task can be traced to the system model elements it is related to. This paper proposes a unified model, which explicitly combines project management models and system specification models to enable traceability. We introduce and discuss the following key concepts, which are currently evaluated in a case study: (1) Ability to navigate between tasks and the according part of the specification, (2) Project management status aggregation by system specification artifacts, (3) Use of entities from the system model for project planning, (4) Unified model validation.
Comparing Data Science Project Management Methodologies via a Controlled Experiment
Authors: J. Saltz; Ivan Shamshurin; Kevin Crowston
Year: 2017

Data Science is an emerging field with a significant research focus on improving the techniques available to analyze data. However, there has been much less focus on how people should work together on a data science project. In this paper, we report on the results of an experiment comparing four different methodologies to manage and coordinate a data science project. We first introduce a model to compare different project management methodologies and then report on the results of our experiment. The results from our experiment demonstrate that there are significant differences based on the methodology used, with an Agile Kanban methodology being the most effective and surprisingly, an Agile Scrum methodology being the least effective.
Lessons Learned from Pilot Site Implementation of an Ambulatory Electronic Health Record
Authors: C. Fullerton; Phil Aponte; R. Hopkins; David Bragg; D. Ballard
Year: 2006

As ambulatory care practices face increasing pressure to implement electronic health records (EHRs), there is a growing need to determine the essential elements of a successful implementation strategy. HealthTexas Provider Network is in the process of implementing an EHR system comprising GE Centricity Physician Office–EMR 2005, Clinical Content Consultants (now part of GE), and Kryptiq Secure Messaging throughout all 88 practices in the Dallas–Fort Worth area and is hoping to extend the system to other practices affiliated with Baylor Health Care System as well. We describe the preimplementation clinical process redesign and quality improvement training that has been conducted networkwide in preparation for the introduction of the EHR, as well as the specific steps taken to prepare and train clinic staff for the integration of the EHR into daily workflows. The first pilot site, Family Medical Center at North Garland, implemented the system in May 2006. Based on both the positive aspects of this experience and the challenges we encountered, we identified 20 essential elements for successful implementation in the areas of site selection, implementation strategy, staff education and preparation, team project management, content, hardware and software, and workflow process. Broadly, we determined that 1) a pilot site's understanding of and willingness to work within the fluid nature of the implementation process during what is essentially a testing phase is a key ingredient in achieving success at the pilot site and in improving the process for later sites; 2) input from and representation of viewpoints of all types of EHR users during preimplementation decision making enables customization of the system and sufficient preplanning to ensure minimal workflow disruptions during and after implementation; and 3) a high level of technical and training support during the early days of implementation is invaluable.
