A systematic approach to the quality assessment of printed products
Authors: S. Havenko; Marta Labetska; M. Havenko; Yaroslav Boychuk; Igor Karpa
Year: 2024

Quality standards for the technological processes of the production of finished products are used in all countries of the world. Consumers of printing and packaging products are increasingly demanding ISO 9001 quality system certificates from manufacturing companies. It should be noted that international and national standards use different approaches to the standardization of processes and products, and the content of project management. To meet the demands of consumers, which are constantly increasing, quality management should be carried out based on a set of scientifically based principles, which can be divided into system-wide and special. The problem is relevant for modern Ukrainian enterprises, where, on the one hand, they need serious changes in the organizational structure, corporate culture, style and methods of project management; and on the other hand, compliance with the ratio of responsibility for quality between the management system and performers.
Evaluation of the quality of printed products at the current stage requires the application of the principles of a systematic approach, based on the principles of which it is possible to build a coherent, logically completed methodological system of quality indicators of a specific type of product. This will also make it possible to justify the problem of choosing certain methods and will give a normative and regulatory character to those indicators that are not reflected in the standards but are important for the practical use of products.
To create one or another model of the system, it is first necessary to carry out its verbal and informational description and tuple recording. The components of a verbal informational description usually reflect a description of the external environment, and the system’s connections with it; identification of the relationship between factors, characteristics of the variability of factors; elementary composition of the system, and its parts; description of connections between elements of the system and subsystems; operation of the system, i.e. description of the process of functioning and development of the system. The tuple record of the system model of the quality assessment takes into account the classification characteristics of products, the set of “inputs” and “outputs” of the system; а set of variable parameters and processes.
The goals of quality management at each stage of the technological process for each specific type of printed product can be individual. To cover the management of all stages of the life cycle of media or packaging products within the subsystems of the quality system, it is necessary to perform a full set of special (specific) quality management functions. The matrix method or elements of the ISO 9000 series system can be used to form these functions.

CONTEXT
- This review examines challenges and opportunities in preparing laboratories in a startup phase for accreditation by both the College of American Pathologists (CAP) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 15189 in an international setting as it relates to our experience at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi Laboratory. It also discusses some of the strategies used in executing those projects and the added advantages in pursuing both types of accreditations.


OBJECTIVES
- To share our experience with CAP and ISO 15189 accreditations in a startup international operation in relation to the challenges encountered and implementation strategy success factors.


DATA SOURCES
- MEDLINE (PubMed) database was used to review this topic as well as peer-reviewed articles and World Health Organization publications on the topic.


CONCLUSIONS
- Accreditation is a perfect means toward building quality medical laboratories in a diverse workforce environment and improving patient safety. Further, it establishes a strong foundation on which any new operation can build a sustainable quality improvement culture. Accreditations by CAP and/or ISO are among the most reputable and well-established accreditation systems that clinical laboratories could aim for. As a result of both accreditations offering synergistic and complementing features, we recommend that any laboratory seeking excellence in quality and performance should consider exploring both. Key elements to success include having dedicated project management and change management support while preparing for accreditation. Laboratories seeking accreditation in early operational stages may face a number of challenges; however, significant opportunities will also be present to optimize various operational components from the beginning.

Authors: Xian Chen; P. Sorenson; John Willson
Year: 2007

Software process assessments are now recognized as important quality improvement activities in the software industry. However, most assessment applications are generally regarded as infrequent, expensive and disruptive for the workplace. Hence, it is advantageous to find alternative ways to the current status of software processes and monitor the implementation of improvement activities. In this paper, we focus on continuous process assessment and capability monitoring. A web-based prototype system is developed to perform a practical study on continuous software process assessment in one process area: project management. The study results show that features such as global management, well-defined responsibility and visualization may help improve the efficiency and continuity of software process management.

Authors: Sharon Thomas; F. R. Alexander; Pravin Durai
Year: 2023

This research focuses on the three project management facets of the iron triangle that the project manager must handle. Cost is one major issue that causes conflict in the project management triangle. Our research indicates that proactively addressing salary-related issues within the constraints can resolve many possible conflicts and improve team dynamics. Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) play a crucial role in the development and growth of the IT solutions industry. The study was conducted at IT solutions under MSMEs, and the sample comprised 109 IT professionals: business analysts, developers, testers, cloud-based jobs, data engineers and leads. The salary was identified as one of the potential variables of the source of conflict. The study confirmed a meaningful relationship between salary perceptions and job roles. Data analysis was conducted using ANOVA, and a contrast test was carried out using IBM SPSS 25 for specific comparisons among the job roles.

In applied sciences, such as economics, engineering, mobility and lo-gistics problems, management, etc., Integer Linear Programming (ILP) deals in a systematic way with the minimization (maximization) problem of a linear function with several variables (some also of a random nature), subject to equality constraints and Integer Linear Programming (ILP) deals in a systematic way with the minimization (maximization) problem of a linear function with several variables (some also of a random nature), subject to equality constraints and linear inequality and to the constraint that one or more variables has integer values. This mathematical approach is essential to address and solve a very large number of real problems, typical of the applied sciences, when there is an indivisibility of the good to be produced or of the resource to be used and thus the consequent need to represent the problem through models of Linear Programming with integer variables. The applications of the method concern many applications of modern society and extend from industrial analysis for the distribution of goods and the sequenc-ing of productive activities, to economic problems aimed at the optimal management of a securities portfolio, to those of planning and optimal planning of public investments, to the problems inherent in biology, high

Authors: I. Chernyavs'ka; Akim Klemiatin
Year: 2023

In current conditions, the issue of reducing the potential negative impacts on project stakeholders, improving efficiency, and increasing satisfaction from participating in project work remains relevant in project communications management. 
The article aims to study the problems of defining and using the most effective communication channels in project stakeholder management. The theoretical and methodological basis of the work is a set of principles and methods of scientific research: the principle of systematization and theoretical generalization, methods of grouping and ranking. 
According to the goal, the task was set to substantiate the effectiveness of communication channels depending on the degree of remoteness of the project stakeholders. Based on the study, the concept of a project was clarified, which, according to the PMBOK Project Management Standard, is understood as a temporary activity aimed at creating a unique product, service, or result and is part of the value delivery system. The contextual factors of the internal and external environment of the organization, which influence the project's results, were studied. The basis for the analysis was the scientific works of domestic and foreign scientists on the mentioned issues, materials, and data from the official website of the Ukrainian Project Management Association. 
The theoretical and methodological basis of the work is a set of principles and methods of scientific research: the principle of systematization and theoretical generalization, methods of grouping and ranking. As a result of the study, the sphere of execution, "Stakeholders," which is one of the eight spheres of project implementation, was considered. The definition of communication as a vital part of the value supply system by the sphere of execution of the "Stakeholders" project was recorded, and the dependence of the effectiveness of communication methods on the used communication channels was determined according to the model of the effectiveness of communication channels by Alistair Cockburn. It has been proven that applying this model can have a beneficial effect on increasing communication effectiveness during project implementation. A matrix of the effectiveness of communication channels was built, which details the consequences of stakeholder communication methods depending on their remoteness.

Authors: S. Blakstad; Irmelin Aarberg Andersen
Year: 2013

This paper reports on the development, construction and experiences from transferring to a new headquarters for a regional bank. The bank moved into its new premises in November 2010. Strategic briefing was used to focus and develop the project and promote alignment with organisational objectives, and scorecards were used to define and follow up on performance. This research and development project was conducted as action research, bringing together the development of the project with development and testing of new solutions and processes, in cooperation with researchers and practitioners. The development of the project was carried out by the bank, arranged as two project teams: one on the demand side (the organisational development project and the process of setting requirements) and one on the supply side (construction and project management). The acronym ‘SMART’ was chosen in order to communicate the objectives. The objectives as well as the change management process and the results one year after moving into the building are described in this paper. After one year of occupancy, the results are very positive.
Process Analytical Technology, continuous manufacturing, and the development of a surrogate model for dissolution: a pharmaceutical manufacturing statistical engineering case study
Authors: S. Altan; H. Coppenolle; L. Hare; Sarah Nielsen; Martin Otava

Abstract Statistical engineering is a recent movement that seeks to promote a systematic application of statistical tools combined with a comprehensive view of project management to solve important commercial problems. We discuss how statistical engineering principles were applied in the development of a surrogate model for dissolution (also referred to as in vitro release), an important physical property of solid dose pharmaceutical products required for marketing. The approach relies on spectroscopic analytical methods, referred to more generally as Process Analytic Technology, to enable monitoring of a batch of pharmaceutical product in real time. Real time release (RTR) is the release to the market of a batch of final product, nearly immediately after its production, rather than the weeks to months currently needed using conventional wet chemistry analytical methods. The development of a surrogate model advances the goal of RTR of a batch of pharmaceutical product, and the application of statistical engineering tools enhances a coherent development process as illustrated in a case study.
An Empirical Approach for the Assessment of Scheduling Risk in a Large Globally Distributed Industrial Software Project
Authors: Alberto Avritzer; A. Lima
Year: 2009

We describe an empirical approach for the assessment of the scheduling risk in a large globally distributed industrial software project. We analyzed two and half years of project data and we identified some factors that are likely to impact team productivity and that could affect the team’s ability to meet its schedule objective. We built an analytical model to capture team’s productivity variability, which can be used to approximate the total time required to complete the project. Our approach is designed to be used by project management groups to perform risk assessment early in the software development process.
Ensuring project resilience and public services in a pandemic context: two French case studies
Authors: C. Gaie; R. de Lacerda
Year: 2022

: This paper examines the resilience of IT projects to the COVID-19 pandemic. It provides a literature overview of resilience applicability in IT projects and it details the context of IT project management on public services. A simplified managed model is described to facilitate the evaluation of project resilience. This model enhances project resilience by strengthening the project in the organisational, operational, functional and project dimensions. Two case studies are detailed based on on-going IT projects carried by public French institutions: the modernisation of the French personal income system; and the migration of a full online teaching due to the sanitary confinement. The analysis realises the four dimensions and highlights their contribution in the pandemic recovery context. Whereas this approach may be perceived as simplistic, it offers essential lessons to improve resilience of IT projects for public services when facing unexpected crisis.
Managing enterprise resource planning projects
Authors: P. Dey; B. Clegg; D. Bennett
Year: 2010

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to help managers to successfully plan, implement, and operate enterprise resource planning (ERP) projects using a risk management framework. Design/methodology/approach – This paper adopted a combined literature review and case study method. Using literature review, the paper first identified major issues of managing ERP projects and develops a risk management framework for managing those issues. The proposed risk management framework was then applied to a ERP implementation project of a UK-based energy services group and its effectiveness for managing ERP projects implementation had been demonstrated. Additionally, the risk factors as identified from the case application are compared with the risk factors from the previous researches so as to suggest mitigating measures. Findings – All the risk factors are categorized into planning, implementation and operations phases along with project processes, organizational transformation and information technology (IT) perspectives. Project implementation phase is the most vulnerable to failure. The case study results reveal that the effect of other projects on on-going ERP project, management of overall IT architecture and non-availability of resources for organizational transformation are most critical from likelihood and impact perspectives. Managing risk across various phases of project and equal emphasize to effective project management, organizational transformation and IT adoption are the key to success in ERP implementation. Practical implications – The risk factors, which were identified using literature review and the case study, have great significance as mitigating measures of those risks may result successful implementation of ERP projects in the industry. Additionally, proposed risk management framework could be customized to implement ERP projects elsewhere. Originality/value – ERP projects are risky as they are capital intensive, technically complex, and call for organizational transformation. There are both success and failure stories. However, both researchers and practitioners agree, that if it can be implemented and operated successfully and benefits should be achievable. Although there are many studies on ERP implementation, little has been discussed on managing risks of ERP projects. Therefore, this paper bridges the gap.
Distributed agent-based simulation of construction projects with HLA
Authors: H. Taghaddos; S. Abourizk; Y. Mohamed; I. Ourdev
Year: 2008

Simulation techniques can provide a resource-driven schedule and answer many hypothetical scenarios before project execution to improve on conventional project management software applications for large-scale construction projects. However, the current process of simulation and optimization of resource utilization is a time consuming process especially for large-scale projects. This study employs High Level Architecture (HLA) to develop distributed agent based simulation models. These models are composed of several individual modeling components (federates) that can cooperate with each other for the simulation model (interoperability). These federates are developed in a generic way for reuse on future construction projects. A number of agent-based federates are considered for managing various aspects of the project and to enhance the performance of the simulation model. This framework is illustrated using two case studies, module assembly yard and tower crane, that investigate the feasibility of the proposed approach.

Authors: Zhifeng Wu; Yisheng Liu
Year: 2021

Based on the transmission characteristics of networks and the systematization of technical risks in national major science and technology projects, the risk transmission mechanism of national major science and technology projects is deeply discussed herein. Firstly, the system of systems (SoS) engineering process model of national major science and technology projects is constructed, including two levels and three stages. Secondly, the hierarchical structure of national major science and technology projects is analyzed, and the risks are divided into different levels, such as SoS, system, subsystem, equipment, module, and components. Finally, we describe the risk transfer mechanism using the forest-fire model and outline a risk control strategy. The results show that the findings are helpful for recognizing the essence and transmission mechanism of technical risks of national major science and technology projects and for reducing the risk from the source. The research results can be applied to project management in the transportation field.
