Appreciative Inquiry Into IT Projet Management: Understanding Win-Win Contracts
Authors: Nannette P. Napier; L. Mathiassen
Year: 2008

Traditional systems development research largely adopts a negative view and focuses on failures. In contrast, this study adopts a positive approach to improve current practices. We report from an action research project at a small software firm, TelSoft, in which we applied appreciative inquiry to develop information technology (IT) project management skills. The inquiry process offers two contributions. First, we demonstrate how appreciative principles and the four steps of initiating, inquiring, imagining, and innovating were used to learn about existing strengths and share visions of possible futures. Acknowledging that humans under these circumstances respond constructively to change, this led to a new development program for IT project managers. Second, we adapt 'win-win contracts' to develop generative metaphors for the core knowledge areas: scope, time, cost, and quality management. The resulting metaphors are grounded in the particular context at TelSoft and informed by Theory W. The paper presents the appreciative inquiry process in detail and discusses the results in relation to the IT project management literature.

Network security project management: a security policy-based approach
Authors: J. Krichène; N. Boudriga
Year: 2007

Managing security projects is a delicate activity due to the evolution of attacks. In this paper, we develop a new methodology for estimating security effort based on algebraic representation of security policies. This methodology is used within the SECOMO model. Two models are defined: the a priori model and the a posteriori model. Real security projects are used to prove the accuracy of the new methodology.
Integrating Engineering Leadership Throughout an Undergraduate Engineering Degree
Authors: Meagan R. Kendall; Caroline Salas; Evelyn Martinez; R. Gonzalez
Year: 2018

This innovative practice full paper describes an effort to create a thread of engineering leadership development throughout an undergraduate engineering degree at The University of Texas at El Paso. The first bachelor’s degree of its kind in the nation, this new degree is housed in the Department of Engineering Education and Leadership and has a heavy emphasis on integrating fundamental engineering theory and skills with business acumen and leadership development (e-lead.utep.edu). In developing the leadership component of the degree, the faculty understood that one of the most effective methods by which people learn to develop as leaders is through practice. Therefore, rather than place all leadership development in a single course in the Engineering Leadership Program (E-Lead), the degree was designed to have a coordinated thread of leadership development throughout the degree plan, encompassing both curricular and extracurricular opportunities. Focused heavily on practice and application, a framework for leadership development was designed to take a tiered approach. For all students, in-class activities introduce fundamental concepts of engineering leadership in the context of teamwork and engineering project management in the E-Lead courses. For those students interested in more in-depth experience and training, additional extracurricular leadership development opportunities were made available in the form of coaching or attending leadership conferences and workshops. In all of these activities, the focus is on helping students to develop their character, capacity, and competence. Having recently graduated the first cohort of students using this leadership development approach, this paper describes the framework used for leadership development and the key activities dispersed throughout the engineering leadership thread. Further, this paper includes qualitative results from assessing the impact of these activities on our graduating cohort.

Authors: A. Ivko
Year: 2024

Introduction. The recovery of Ukraine from the consequences of the full-scale aggression of the russian federation requires the development of new scientific approaches to the implementation of restoration projects, programs and portfolios. Modern research on project and program management includes the direction of value-oriented management, the implementation of which increases the accuracy and flexibility of the management system, increases the probability of the project's success in achieving its goals and meeting the specified limitations. At the same time, the syncretic methodology that is being created to manage infrastructure restoration projects is not sufficiently developed in the direction of using value approaches. Therefore, scientific task of applying value-oriented management within the syncretic methodology of infrastructure restoration project management is relevant. Problem statement. The problem of implementation of self-managed restoration projects using the syncretic project management methodology is described. The need to develop a syncretic methodology for such projects is emphasized. The importance of applying value-oriented management within syncretic project management methodology is founded. The scientific task of developing value management models of the restoration project implemented by a self-managed organization using syncretic project management methodology has been formulated. Purpose. Development of value models for use by self-managed organizations in restoration projects, which will use the syncretic methodology as the one that best meets the modern challenges of the field of infrastructure restoration in Ukraine.
LET'S TAKE THIS OFFLINE: A THEMATIC ANALYSIS OF VIRTUAL CONFLICT IN HYBRID COLLABORATIVE DESIGN TEAMS
Authors: Meagan Flus; Sharon A. Ferguson; A. Olechowski
Year: 2023

Abstract Conflict can be both a productive and detrimental reality of design collaboration. While most studies on conflict characterize findings by type (conflict about the task, process, or interpersonal relationships), we extend this typology to understand the causes, topics, and outcomes of conflict. To do so, we analyze communications in a virtual chat platform, collected in a hybrid work environment. A thematic analysis on over 6000 messages between student design teams on the enterprise communication platform Slack revealed three emergent conflict themes: Engineering Design, Project Management, and Communication. A mapping of the themes to a widely-cited typology of conflict found an over- representation of task (productive) and process (detrimental) conflict in the Engineering Design and Project Management themes, respectively. The distribution of types of conflict in the Communication theme is representative of the entire dataset, suggesting that communication can be a cause and outcome in all types of conflict. Overall, our classification of conflict is the first step towards describing triads of the causes, topics, and outcomes of conflict, a contribution which will drive the development of interventions for design team conflict.
How Do Nonprofit Proposal Writers Learn Their Jobs? Results of a Nationwide Survey and Interviews
Authors: Sarah K. Gunning
Year: 2025

This article responds to the need for studies on the proposal-writing process within nonprofit organizations. The few empirical studies within the technical communication field and nonprofit studies have focused on job satisfaction and compensation rather than the writing process. Based on a nationwide survey ( n = 580) and interviews ( n = 18) of members of several professional organizations for proposal writers, this study describes the differences between academic and nonprofit proposal writers, writers’ experiences learning their job duties, and how long it takes to feel confident in their position. The study also reports three areas of study that writers said are important to their job: research methods, project management, and personnel management. The author provides suggestions to professors of proposal-writing coursework and recommends that they pair with local professional organizations to develop strong connections with the profession.
ECONOMICS AND MANAGEMENT OF THE NATIONAL ECONOMY THE INFLUENCE OF TRADE AND ECONOMIC RELATIONS BETWEEN THE UKRAINE AND EUROPEAN UNION ON THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE PRACTICE OF INVESTMENT PLANNING IN THE CONTEXT OF THE CONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF DOMESTIC REGIONS
Authors: Ihor T. Zvarych; O. Zvarych
Year: 2023

This article examines the influence of the trade and economic relations of the European Union and Ukraine on the development of its regions using investment planning. At the same time, with the use of systematic and synergistic approaches and methods of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, historical, comparative and content analysis, it was found that relations between our state and the EU were initiated in December 1991, when the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands as the presiding state in it, officially recognized the independence of Ukraine in a letter on his behalf. Hover, it was established that without proper organization of both foreign trade and project management, the appropriate use of those resources invested in the development of the region is essentially impossible. Along with this, the world has long known that their management system is a special direction of modern management, the application of which gives tangible both cur-rent and prospective results, and the implementation of various functions with project management requires appropriate actions, which are defined as their management processes. Simultaneously, project management is an integrated process of actions (or lack thereof) in one direction, which affect other directions as well. Such a relationship forces a balance between various project tasks – often an improvement in one of the areas can be achieved only at the expense of a deterioration in some other. At the same time, project management processes can be divided into six main groups, which implement different management functions: innovation, planning, analysis, performance, management and completion. Concurrently, it is worth separately distinguishing the system of network planning and management methods as a set of appropriate methods of planing and management of scientific research, capital repair of the main production facilities, design and technological works and products of a new variety, construction and reconstruction of buildings and structures using those network schedules that are used today in the system of formation of national economic complexes, which has a rather positive effect on the management of investment projects in Ukraine as well.
Trade-off between time and cost in project planning: a simulation-based optimization approach
Authors: S. Senses; Mustafa Kumral
Year: 2023

Mine development or construction projects should be carefully scheduled to meet the project objectives in terms of duration, budget, and scope since they include many highly time- and cost-sensitive activities. The inherent complexity in mining operations, coupled with material, equipment, and resource availabilities, commodity price cyclicality, and market trend uncertainties, can lead to a high risk to the project, resulting in schedule and cost overruns. Therefore, these projects must be planned and controlled efficiently to ensure that the required capital investment does not exceed the project budget and the project deadline is met. This paper proposes a simulation-based model to optimize the trade-off between time and cost of project planning problems under uncertainty. In doing so, equally probable realizations are generated considering different project duration crashing scenarios to quantify the impact of uncertainty on the total project cost and project completion time, and risks are assessed. A numerical example is provided to show the performance of the proposed approach through an underground mine development project. Statistical analysis of the results obtained from the developed simulation model identifies the risk of project completion time, the criticality of activities, and bottleneck activities of the project. In addition, the time–cost trade-off is achieved under the project deadline and budget constraints by implementing 20,736 different crashing scenarios. Finally, the results obtained from the developed formulation are compared with those obtained from the linear programming solution. The proposed approach has a strong potential to add value to project management of mining projects.

Authors: Shakir Iqbal; M. Nawaz; Ameer Hamza; Hussain Ahmad Khan; Muhammad Mubeen Butt; Ammad Maqsood
Year: 2024





This study investigated the reasons for project failures and cost overruns in building construction. The building construction industry is well known for chronic issues such as fragmentation, cost overruns, poor working conditions, and insufficient quality, all of which result in project failure. Project failure and cost are the two most essential indicators of success in a construction project because they have an equal impact on all project participants, both favorably and negatively. These problems have been evident for many years across the global construction industry, requiring the identification of the primary causes to address these challenges. The use of both quantitative and qualitative approaches was important, as it made it easier to accomplish the overall goal of solving the problem because quantitative data were collected via surveys and qualitative data were collected through interviews. Data was gathered from 104 team members in Pakistan's building construction industry. The top five reasons for project failure were poor project management, poor design, frequent design changes, design errors, bureaucracy, corruption, poor quality, and poor site management. The top five reasons for cost overruns were poor start-up planning, poor project cost estimation, poor weather conditions, political situations, and the economic instability of the country. Minimizing these factors can contribute to a greater probability of project success and overall improvement in the construction industry.

Authors: Е.В. Дехтярь; М.Е. Суптеля
Year: 2022

Данная статья описывает проблемы отсутствия единой методологии существующих подходов оценки стоимости инвестиционно-строительного проекта на различных этапах жизненного цикла. Актуальность решения обозначенных проблем обусловлена тем, что инвестиционная деятельность, формируемая в виде инвестиционных проектов -это важнейший инструмент развития экономики. На каждом этапе используются специфические методы, зачастую обладающие слабой связностью и системностью, что затрудняет управление инвестиционно-строительными проектами и достижение запланированных проектных результатов. Разрешение комплекса системных проблем проектного менеджмента возможно на основе совершенствования методологии валидной оценки стоимости инвестиционно-строительного проекта, что будет способствовать успешной реализации и завершению инвестиционно-строительного проекта.
 This article describes the problems of the lack of a unified methodology for existing approachesto assessing the cost of an investment and construction project at various stages of the life cycle. The relevanceof solving the identified problems is due to the fact that investment activity, formed in the form of investment projects, is the most important tool for economic development. At each stage, specific methods are used, often withweak coherence and consistency, which makes it difficult to manage investment and construction projects andachieve the planned project results. The solution of a complex of systemic problems of project management is possible on the basis of improving the methodology for a valid assessment of the cost of an investment and construction project, which will contribute to the successful implementation and completion of an investment and construction project.

Authors: D. M. Marutschke; Jeremy White; U. Serdült
Year: 2021

One of the challenges in software engineering education is to present students a real-world scenario and train them in project management techniques in combination with technological literacy and intercultural communication to collaborate effectively. Especially in undergraduate education, students benefit from project-based learning. Standardized tools help both the learning and teaching side in team and class management. For this paper, 28 undergraduate students from an international engineering course in Japan were surveyed on their assessment of WordPress and Kanban usefulness, engagement, distraction, and preference for other methods. In addition, four open-ended questions were asked to students about their project’s success, what they liked and disliked, and general comments. The text was pre-processed by natural language processing and a language model was trained using the skip-gram method of Word2Vec. The results from the language model were interpreted in combination with students’ perception of WordPress and Kanban use.

Authors: Oriel A. Herrera; M. Lévano; Julio Rojas-Mora
Year: 2018

Global changes and current trends have led to major revisions in the field of education. In the context of higher education, it has proliferated successfully to move the curricula to a competency-based education. Also, the incorporation of ICT in the training process is a growing trend that has been strongly positioned in all levels of education. However, beyond the models and paradigms, what is relevant is the implementation of an innovative proposal. This is where the problems of a complex implementation are experienced. At UC Temuco, the computer science program renewed its curriculum to a competency model. For the evaluation of achievement of competences, a course called integration workshop is included in the curriculum at the end of each year. These courses include a series of individual and group strategies, which have been designed, refined and improved over the years. ICT is a strong component in the support of strategies, including tools for collaboration, authorship, software project management, among others. The workshops are evaluated externally through an event called "project fair", where actors from the business, government and academic world are invited. Results have been very satisfactory and have allowed a continuous improvement of the strategies and the selection of ICT support tools.

University-industry-government (UIG) collaboration nurtures the innovation ecosystem that sustains competitiveness and drives national economic growth. In the Philippines, however, there is limited collaboration between the UIG, thus resulting in untapped opportunities. An integrated web-based collaboration platform for researcher profiles, tools, and resources in Philippine higher education institutions (HEIs) would help promote and strengthen UIG collaboration. In this light, this study conducted a baseline assessment to gain insights into the faculty members’ perceived motivations, current contexts, and challenges of UIG collaborations. These insights guided the development of a framework that would inform the development of an online collaboration platform. The survey was participated in by 111 faculty members from a university system. Analysis showed that respondents had a wide range of experiences in their collaboration, wherein there was an overall satisfaction rating of 3.99 on their collaboration. Findings revealed that building connections or networks and professional development were the main drivers for faculty members to engage in collaboration. On the other hand, communication- and coordination-related issues were among the top collaboration challenges. Also identified as concerns were the differences in perspectives and the low commitment levels of some collaborators. The respondents expressed the necessity for an integrated platform that can facilitate collaboration activities, including opportunity-matching aligned with their professional experience and research interests. Better project management and streamlining of administrative processes were also cited to further enhance the collaboration experience. These findings underscore the necessity for improvement in strategic planning, resource allocation, enhanced faculty support, and opportunity-matching aligned with faculty expertise that can facilitate more effective collaboration among stakeholders. This research has essential implications for the improvement of the collaboration and similarly could provide important inputs and salient features for the development of a UIG collaboration platform.
