Optimising project outcomes in complex environments: empirical insights on agile practices and stakeholder dynamics
Authors: T. S. Nguyen; Sherif Mohamed; Sherif Mostafa
Year: 2024

PurposeThis study delves into the dynamics between Agile Response to Change (AR), Adaptive Scoping (AS), Stakeholder Engagement (SE) and Project Performance (PP), with a special focus on the moderating influence of Project Complexity (PC). The research, grounded in a thorough literature review, identifies critical gaps in these areas and examines the extent to which PC moderates the effects of AR, AS and SE on PP, offering new perspectives for managing complex projects.Design/methodology/approachThe research develops a conceptual model based on a critical analysis of existing literature. A comprehensive questionnaire was designed, incorporating 28 items to measure AR, AS, SE, PP and PC. Data was collected from 136 project managers across various industries, and the responses were analysed using structural equation modelling (SEM) to explore the complex interplay between these variables.FindingsThe analysis revealed that internal AR (ARint) significantly enhances both quantitative (PPqt) and qualitative aspects of PP (PPql). AS and SE were found to positively influence PPql, but their impact on PPqt was not significant. Interestingly, PC was observed to negatively moderate the relationship between ARint and PPql, while its moderating effect on the relationship between ARint and PPql was not significant. The study also notes that PC does not significantly alter the positive correlations between AS, SE and PPql.Originality/valueThis research contributes to the existing body of knowledge by elucidating the relationships between ARint, AS, SE and different dimensions of PP. It uniquely explores the role of PC as a moderating variable in these relationships, offering valuable insights for practitioners and researchers in the field of complex project management.
A Complexity Framework for Project Management Strategies
Authors: A. Boonstra; Cees Reezigt
Year: 2023

We examine how project complexity influences the choice of a project management strategy and present a framework that facilitates managers in selecting a suitable project management strategy. We distinguish the complexity of project domains from two dimensions, the degree of structural complexity and the degree of dynamic complexity, resulting in four generic project types. Four generic project management strategies are identified that match these project types. This complexity framework for project management allows key players to determine a better project management strategy and related practices given its content, the internal context, and the external environment.

Abstract. In the context of the rapid development of science and technology, traditional methods are no longer effective, which requires more intelligent and adaptive solutions for information management and processing. The article explores and analyzes multi-agent systems (MAS), their role and importance in the field of innovation. Objective: systematization of technological solutions used in the development of multi-agent systems in innovation activities, as well as assessment of their impact on the effectiveness of innovation processes. Result and novelty: an analysis of architectural and algorithmic approaches to MAC development was carried out, modern software and hardware solutions, including the Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud platforms, were studied. Innovative aspects in the integration of MAC with physical devices are highlighted, which expands their functionality. Practical significance: the considered technological solutions support the practical application of MAC in various fields: from project management to optimization of research processes. The implementation of the IAU contributes to improved coordination and allocation of resources, which is especially important in conditions of high dynamics and uncertainty of the innovation environment. Discussion: It is emphasized that MAC development faces the challenges of complex architecture and computational costs. The importance of choosing a suitable development platform (for example, JADE, SPADE, NetLogo) is highlighted, depending on the needs of the project. The role of cloud technologies and IoT in the future development of multi-agent systems is emphasized.

We report on the experiences of Siemens Corporation in nine globally-distributed software development projects. These projects represent a range of collaboration models, from co-development to outsourcing of components to outsourcing the software for an entire project. We report experience and lessons in issues of project management, division of labor, ongoing coordination of technical work, and communication. We include lessons learned, and conclude the paper with suggestions about important open research issues in this area.
Modelling Conflict within the Social Networks of Large Multi-Vendor Software Projects using Communicating Stream X-Machines
Authors: R. Williams
Year: 2015

There continue to be failures in the management of large IT projects, with anecdotal evidence from the media suggesting that most large public sector projects are not delivered to budget or on time. The fact that we continue to incur failures in managing large IT implementations should come as no surprise however, as they contain a number of areas of risk, ranging from the detailed technical requirements, to the overly ambitious timescales, and the need for large numbers of individual commercial organisations to seamlessly work together in a symbiotic manner. Indeed, some of the larger IT implementations consist of hundreds of customer and third-party team members, who are organised into multiple project teams, and may be located across different geographies and time zones. With this in mind, it has recently been argued that the increasing size and complexity of these IT projects, leads them to exhibit the behaviours and traits of complex systems (Curlee and Gordon, 2011). Furthermore, with communication and trust issues being cited as the most important aspects of project success (PMI, 2008), it can be hypothesised that an important reason for failure may be the complexity that arises from social interactions within project environments (Hekkala and Urquhart, 2013). As such, we believe that an important reason for project failure may be the emergent behaviours that arise through the social networks within distributed, multiparty project environments; in particular around the areas of communication, commitment, trust, and the resulting conflict that emerges when/if trust breaks down. Conflict in this instance, is broadly defined as an awareness of incompatibilities or perceptions between individuals or groups, which is based on either discrepant views, incompatible wishes or interpersonal relationship is- sues (Jehn and Mannix, 2001). Within this study, we have performed semi-structured interviews with project managers involved in large multi–vendor software implementations. This qualitative data has been analysed and transformed into a domain model, which has subsequently been used as the basis for an agent– based model using the concept of communicating stream X–Machines (Balanescu et al., 1999). Through in silico experimentation, we are beginning to investigate the propagation of conflict through the social networks in multi-vendor software implementations. In particular, we are investigating the roles that intragroup conflict (between project team members) and intergroup conflict (between different project teams) play in the successful completion of large software implementation projects, involving multiple vendors distributed over multiple geographies and time zones. Our intention is to generate strategies to harness the complexity inherent to large IT projects, and communicate these back to the project management and IT consulting communities so that they may maximise the probability of project success.

IMPACT OF HARD PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND TEAM MOTIVATION FOR PROJECT PERFORMANCE
Authors: U. P. Gunasekare; S.H. Pramudika
Year: 2023

This study focused on the impact of Hard Project Management Practices (HPMPs) and Team Motivation (TM) for successful Project Performance (PP). Further, it examines how TM mediates the link between HPMPs and PP. A qualitative data collection section sought to find challenges faced by the construction industry in Sri Lanka while exploring the association of HPMPs and PP further. Both public and private sector 131 construction projects were selected as the sample by way of the convenience sampling method. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the managerial capacity officers. Accordingly, this research found that there is a slight impact of HPMPs on PP. But when it combines with TM the PP is boosted significantly. The mediator analysis proved that even though the construction projects have sound HPMPs, those will impair project performance if they would not consider team motivation properly. And, there are many other variables outside this model that are discussed under qualitative analysis, especially the factors/challenges which are unforeseen in the external environment.

The development of information technology has been leveraged by state-owned enterprises (BUMN) operating in the fields of Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul, as well as industrial services in Indonesia. Among the company's 21 priority projects, three projects have been identified as experiencing delays in the planning phase related to the delivery of business requirements. The measurement of IT governance capability was conducted using the process rating of COBIT 2019. The selected process objectives were APO02, APO03, and APO05. The results of the capability level measurement indicate that APO02, APO03, and APO05 have reached level 2. Based on the measurement results, findings have been identified that require improvement, especially in APO03, such as providing understanding to key stakeholders about enterprise architecture and enterprise architecture design. As a recommendation for improvement, it is expected that the company can engage in Enterprise Architecture design to align strategic program priorities with architectural objectives.
Developer Modelling using Software Quality Metrics and Machine Learning
Authors: Franciele Beal; Patricia Rucker de Bassi; E. Paraiso
Year: 2017

Software development has become an essential activity for organizations that increasingly rely on these to manage their business. However, poor software quality reduces customer satisfaction, while high-quality software can reduce repairs and rework by more than 50 percent. Software development is now seen as a collaborative and technology-dependent activity performed by a group of people. For all these reasons, choosing correctly software development members teams can be decisive. Considering this motivation, classifying participants in different profiles can be useful during project management team’s formation and tasks distribution. This paper presents a developer modeling approach based on software quality metrics. Quality metrics are dynamically collected. Those metrics compose the developer model. A machine learning-based method is presented. Results show that it is possible to use quality metrics to model

Year: 2024

PurposeThe use of technology has increased in the industrial sector over the years. This has propelled the construction industry to follow suit by enhancing construction technology to experience the associated benefits. However, technology adoption in the construction environment has not been smoothly implemented. This article aimed to determine the obstacles to adopting sensing technology in managing construction projects in three major sub-Saharan African nations.Design/methodology/approachThe study adopted a quantitative approach using structured questionnaires. The questionnaire link was sent to construction professionals in Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa, of which 120 were responded. Data received were analysed using the Statistical Package for Special Science (SPSS) to generate mean scores and the Kruskal–Wallis test and component analysis.FindingsThe results show that construction professionals face herculean tasks when adopting sensing technology in construction project management. Some prominent challenges are initial cost, lack of proper information technology (IT) infrastructure, power supply, lack of well-trained staff, maintenance cost, operating cost, cost of training, technology immaturity and resistance to change. The results also revealed that adoption challenges differ in these three countries, which may be attributable to the economic development level.Practical implicationsDespite the importance of sensing devices in construction industries, the study has revealed that Sub-Saharan African countries face enormous challenges in adopting them in project management and execution. This situation may hinder the industry’s ability to benefit from this technology in terms of efficiency, effectiveness and safety management, which may ultimately affect their cash flows.Originality/valueThe study provides a valuable understanding of the challenges encountered in implementing sensing technology in the construction sector in major countries within sub-Saharan Africa. These findings will enable the countries examined and other African countries to become cognizant of the challenges and implement strategies to overcome them, thereby enhancing performance in the construction industry.

Year: 2023

Great attention has been paid to the projects’ success, which is the core of project management. It is not surprising that much research is being done in this area, as several factors contribute to the project’s success. However, the moderating effect of top management support (TMS) on the relationship between transformational leadership (TL) and project success (PS) has not been investigated before. This study aims to examine whether the relationship between a project manager’s transformational leadership and project success is moderated by top management support. This study uses a post-positivism philosophical objective to investigate the theoretical model. A cross-sectional time-lagged survey design was used to collect quantitative data. Data was collected using a structured questionnaire from 273 team members, project managers, and stakeholders working in Pakistan’s public sector. The factor and hierarchical regression analysis were used for analysis. Our results showed that TL and TMS significantly impacted project success. Moreover, we found that TMS moderates the relationship between TL and PS.
Risk Control Analysis in Electric Power Engineering Project Management
Authors: Yicheng Ni
Year: 2023

With the development of social economy, the number and scale of electric power construction projects are increasing. Their contents are changing from "single" in the past to "diversified" at present. And the contents of project management are constantly being improved and updated. The function and structure of the electric power construction project in China are relatively complex, involving many factors. There are certain risks in safety, quality, investment, construction period and operating benefit. How to better solve the problems existing in the actual operation process and how to better manage power companies and improve the efficiency and economy of power company projects are the key issues that need to be considered. In order to ensure the economic and social benefits of electric power projects, improve their engineering quality, the project managers must analyze various possible risk factors in time during the construction of electric power projects, and take effective measures to minimize the risks.
The Ultranet: an eGovernment Project Management Failure?
Authors: A. Tatnall; B. Davey; Eva Dakich; N. Wickramasinghe
Year: 2013

The Education Ministry in the Australian State of Victoria undertook a major project: building the Ultranet, between 2005 and its release in August 2010. The possibilities offered by the Ultranet were considerable, but up take by schools was not. The Ultranet is not yet dead, but it is certainly not in a good state of health. An analysis of communications shows that user needs were not assessed adequately, and that the poor handling of the system-wide launch was sufficient to disenchant even those who had expressed initial support. This eGovernment project is studied as an example of project failure, particularly in regard to its human aspects. The existence of small pockets of dedicated users points to the possibility of resurrection of those parts of the business case where the users continue to value the feature. Suggestions are made for a possible means of project recovery that would address the problems in this case, and a framework is proposed for anticipating other e-Government project failure points.

The Contextual Utility of Agile Project Management Maturity
Authors: B. Hartono; Dennis A. Kunarsito; Citra Nudiasari
Year: 2018

This study offers both theoretical proposition and empirical evidence on the efficacy or utility of agile project management maturity within the project-based organization context of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) firms in Indonesia. It is conjectured that the association between maturity and performance of the respective firms is moderated by project attributes – i.e. criticality, and emergent complexity. A cross-sectional survey is carried out with targeted respondents of senior management and project practitioners of ICT firms which implement agile approaches at varying maturity levels. Around 34% of response rate is achieved for 355 invitations with a final sample size of 59. The result suggests that the association between agile maturity and performance is positively moderated by project emergent complexity. Project criticality is not found to be a moderating variable.

Year: 2024



The management of social innovation projects and their relationship with sustainable development is a growing interest in the academic and professional spheres. This paper analyzes emerging trends at the intersection of environmental sustainability and social innovation project management. It sought to identify meaningful dialogues that contribute to the design and implementation of projects that promote a sustainable future. A qualitative approach was adopted using two complementary methods to address this objective. First, bibliometric search equations focused on the analytical categories of social innovation and environmental sustainability. Second, a documentary review was carried out using matrices, which made it possible to identify divergences and convergences between the different authors in this field. The results of this study underscore that incorporating environmental sustainability into the management of social innovation projects is desirable and essential to address contemporary social problems effectively. By adopting sustainable practices, fostering environmental awareness, and seeking solutions that respect environmental limits, social innovation projects can play a crucial role in creating a more sustainable and equitable future.
