Authors: А.Е. Данилова
Year: 2023

В статье рассматриваются методы управления строительными проектами. Целью данного исследования является определение методов, которые позволили бы строительным компаниям применять гибкие методологии управления проектами на этапе проектирования проектов, использующих решения информационного моделирования зданий (BIM) в процессе проектирования. Из-за преимуществ гибких методологий управления проектами было проведено значительное количество исследований в отношении принятия этой методологии для строительных проектов. Тем не менее, каскадное управление проектами по-прежнему более широко используется в строительной отрасли, чем гибкое управление проектами.
 The article discusses the methods of managing construction projects. The purpose of this study is to identify methods that would enable construction companies to apply agile project management methodologies during the design phase of projects using Building Information Modeling (BIM) solutions in the design process. Due to the benefits of agile project management methodologies, a significant amount of research has been done regarding the adoption of this methodology for construction projects. However, waterfall project management is still more widely used in the construction industry than agile project management.

Sport seasons through the lenses of project management – Identifying the common key characteristics of sport seasons and projects
Authors: Máté Molnár
Year: 2024

There is a large amount of research on both successful project management and the management of professional sports organisations, but the relationship between these two phenomena remains to be analysed. Therefore, the aim of this article is to identify the similarities between sports seasons and projects by examining the characteristics of these two domains, as well as to lay the foundations for defining the potential management practices that can improve the efficiency of seasons using tools and techniques derived from project management. The results will be obtained through a narrative literature review of relevant books and articles on projects and sports seasons. The outcome of this research will contribute to a better understanding of how sport organisations can streamline their operations, optimise performance and ensure successful sport seasons by potentially implementing a project management approach.
Effect of Monitoring and Evaluation Practices and Urban Water Sustainability Project in Rwanda: A Case of WASAC Project in Kigali City
Authors: Geofrey Kamugisha
Year: 2024

In Rwanda, projects failure is caused by lack of Monitoring and Evaluation staff trainings, technical expertise, design/approach, low level stakeholder involvement, lack of proper planning, lack of supportive supervision, insufficient financial management and poor leadership on feasibility and sustainability project. The general objective of the study is to assess monitoring and evaluation practices and urban water sustainability project in Rwanda. A case of WASAC project in Kigali city and the specific objectives of the study were to assess the influence of project monitoring and evaluation planning on urban water sustainability project in Rwanda, to assess the influence of monitoring and evaluation stakeholders involvement on urban water sustainability project in Rwanda and to determine the effect of monitoring and evaluation trainings on urban water sustainability project in Rwanda. The study was based on two theories such as theory of change and theory of constraints. In this study, a descriptive research design was used and the targeted population includes project management team, project monitoring and evaluation officials, project analysts and engineers. In total they were184 from whom a sample size of 126 was selected as representative of total population. Therefore, a simple sampling technique will be used and data will be collected using questionnaire, interview and documentation. The analysis of data will be done through SPSS version 21. The study findings showed that stakeholders’ involvement is essential in achieving urban water sustainability in the way that M&E planning contribution is at the mean of 3.908 and standard deviation of 0.755, stakeholders involvement contributed to urban water sustainability at the mean of 3.275 and standard deviation of 0.642 while M&E trainings has contributed to urban water sustainability at the mean of4.505 and standard deviation of 0.720 The study found that there are continuous M&E trainings and development of the project staff to acquire skills to implement the project. The study recommended that effective project planning need to be put in place by the project team and managers. Project team should ensure their monitoring and evaluation control plan align with M&E plan. The study recommends a sound stakeholders’ involvement at each phase of the project from initial phase to execution.

Project Success Requires Context-Aware Governance
Authors: Caroline Kiselev; R. Winter; P. Rohner
Year: 2020

Despite growing project management maturity, the failure rate of IT-related projects remains high. We investigated four large IT-related projects within the Swiss Federal Administration that were well-managed but still failed. We found that these projects failed because of poor project governance, in particular inadequate handling of project context by the project sponsor and steering committee. We identify five contextual factors that steering committees should focus on and provide recommendations for strengthening context-aware project governance, illustrated by their implementation in the Swiss Federal Administration.
Configuration Management Maturity in Scientific Facilities
Authors: M. Niknam; P. Bonnal; J. Ovtcharova
Year: 2013

Since the effectiveness of the development and operation of scientific facilities (especially those presenting specific hazards, such as ionizing radiations) relies heavily on state of the art practices, such as systems engineering and product lifecycle management, configuration management (CM) is becoming a key management process. However, while some maturity models exist to assess the degree of the implementation and effectiveness of many management processes, such as project management or systems engineering, there is no specific framework available to assess the degree of maturity of an organization towards CM. This paper focuses on revealing the important maturity dimensions and levels for CM as a means towards developing a CM maturity model.
A Survey on Challenges of Software Project Management
Authors: K. Demir
Year: 2009

Recent surveys indicate that software projects have still high failure rates. In order to increase the odds of success, we have to identify the challenges and determine the causes. Management issues, rather than technological issues, are mostly the causes of these failures. We identified 17 possible areas in which the projects may have been challenged. In this study, we present our findings based on a survey on challenges of management of software projects. We conducted the survey in 2007 among 78 software practitioners regarding their last projects. The participants are from different geographical regions of the world.

have benefitted from the addition of concrete examples and more theoretical material. Those chapters provide so little information that they would be of minimal use to a new administrator or to a staff member seeking to understand the political environment of a college campus. Several thought-provoking chapters balance these deficiencies, however. Frank Cervone provides an excellent description of effective project management, and Luanne DeGreve's discussion of the management of explicit and tacit institutional knowledge is informative. Additionally, Kathleen Walsh's enthusiastic essay makes a clear distinction between management and leadership, while emphasizing the need for leadership in today's rapidly changing digital environment. Harvey Gover's essay on " Knowing the Library User " is succinct and well written. New administrators would benefit especially from reading these sections. Since each chapter stands alone and deals with a unique management issue, the reader can select individual essays to peruse and ignore those that are less helpful. The title implies that this guidebook is written solely for academic library managers, but some of the chapters have application to administration in other types of libraries. For example, Anne Marie Casey's chapter on communication, Luann DeGreve's chapter on corporate culture, and Kathleen Walsh's leadership essay could serve as valuable resources for any library administrator or staff member. It is unfortunate that the title may deter public, special, and school librarians from exploring the contents of this volume. Experienced administrators may wish to read Mistakes in Academic Library Management to review management strategies useful for handling specific situations. New administrators may wish to read selected essays to gain a better understanding of library culture and to learn how to avoid some of the hazards caused by poor communication and inadequate planning. However, because of its inconsistencies, Mistakes in Academic Library Management is an optional purchase for library management collections.—Margaret Like jazz itself, jazz bibliography has a relatively short but remarkably dynamic history marked by a succession of key developments and notable figures. Whilete Coleman, and other icons shaped the music's stylistic development, dedicated researchers tracked what was written about jazz, organizing and presenting their findings in important reference sources. Alan P. Merriam's groundbreaking A Bibliography of Jazz (1954) was first to bring together a wide range of popular and critical writings on the topic. As this body of literature grew, compilers of bibliographies adopted various selective strategies, restricting their scope to books certainly not exhaustive, bibliography of books …
Work Issues in Software Engineering
Authors: Jeremy Leipzig
Year: 2013

Using data from a web-based survey of software developers, the author attempts to determine root causes of "death march" projects and excessive work hours in the software industry in relation to company practices and management. Special emphasis is placed on the factor of business/technical supervisor background. An analysis of variance revealed significant differences between these supervisor groups with regard to a "Pointy-Haired Boss" (PHB) sentiment index. This difference, combined with correlations between the PHB index and the endpoints of project failure and use of software engineering practices, indicate some disparity in the suitability of businessbackground supervisors to manage software development projects compared with their technical-background counterparts. Other survey data points to improved project management skills as the biggest necessity for supervisors in the business-background group.
To Achieve Goal Alignment by Inter-Organizational Incentives: A Case Study of a Hydropower Project
Authors: Yunhong Wang; Senchang Hu; Hyun Woo Lee; Wenzhe Tang; Wenxin Shen; M. Qiang
Year: 2023

Although the use of incentives has been widely recognized as an effective project management tool, its application still needs specific exploration. Existing research on incentives mainly focuses on intra-organizational incentives, lacking systematic research with empirical evidence from the perspective of the inter-organizational level. To fill this research gap, this study conducted an in-depth investigation into the application and impacts of inter-organizational incentives by studying a typical case of a hydropower project. In this case, a series of innovative inter-organizational incentives, involving a multiple contractual incentive scheme concerning schedule, quality, safety, as well as environmental performance, is applied. Using a mixed methodology that included a document review, a questionnaire survey, and interviews, this case study revealed that inter-organizational incentives could effectively help promote goal alignment, stimulate cooperative inter-organizational relationships, and improve project performance. This research developed a novel classification of inter-organizational incentives and emphasized the importance of non-contractual and informal incentives, which were ignored in previous research. The results further highlight that while incentivized organizations generally value incentives according to their monetary intensity, their prioritization of goals is determined by various factors. Therefore, to achieve project goal alignment, the optimization of incentive schemes should comprehensively consider a variety of influencing factors rather than merely focusing on monetary intensity. These findings will help both academic researchers and industrial practitioners design and execute effective inter-organizational incentives for superior project performance, especially for those projects that pursue high sustainable performance with safety and environmental performance included.
An Interactive Web System for Group Project Management and Peer Evaluation
Authors: Fu-Shing Sun; X. Kong; Yi-Hua Weng
Year: 2018

In this paper, we describe the design and development of a web-based project management and evaluation system for group work and peer learning. Using this system, the instructor can dynamically manage projects submitted from students and form student groups, while the students are allowed to peer-evaluate and leave comments on the in-class group presentations. Each student group will be able to check their own performance and review the feedback made by their peer learners. In addition to the conventional tabular reports, the system also provides visualizations to better present the final evaluation results. Both parties agree that the system provides more interactive features that give them greater control in managing the group projects.
The Impact of the Project Management Office Roles to Organizational Value Contribution
Authors: V. Otra-Aho; Jon Iden; J. Hallikas
Year: 2019

Many project-oriented organizations have implemented a project coordination mechanism, such as a project management office (PMO), to align projects with the organization's strategy, to ensure the success of projects, and to create value for the organization from projects. While organizations continue establishing PMOs, these PMOs are struggling to create sufficient value for organizations. The results reveal a significant impact on the PMO environment and interaction of the roles on PMO value contributions. The findings confirm that PMOs have an essential organizational role creating a fit between organization assets.
Factors influencing BIM use in green building construction project management in the UK and China
Authors: L. Tian; Andrew Wright; Birgit Painter; Mehdi Pazhoohesh
Year: 2023

ABSTRACT Decentralization and a lack of integration in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry are some of the main challenges for project management in green building construction. To address this problem, many construction companies have attempted to use building information modelling (BIM) to coordinate and optimize the management of green building projects. However, the research on successfully adopting and using BIM in interdisciplinary teams working on green building projects is limited; moreover, comprehensive comparisons across different countries and regions are lacking. Therefore, this study conducts a novel investigation of the key factors affecting the use of BIM in project management for green building construction through case studies in the UK and China. This study uses semi-structured interviews, Python-based term frequency analysis and thematic analysis to identify five key themes, namely, communication, data environment, motivation, project members and policy, which influence the adoption and implementation of BIM. In addition, based on gained insights, the impacts of different green building certification levels on BIM project management during the construction phase must be fully considered. These findings provide practical recommendations for BIM management in green building construction projects and contribute to the field of construction management.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this paper is to examine the competencies that US healthcare organizations require for quality and performance improvement positions.


DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH
A US healthcare improvement job posting content analysis was conducted using the HQ Essentials competency framework.


FINDINGS
The HQ essentials competencies most desired for improvement positions include project management, training, data analysis and applied performance improvement methods. Competency requirements varied somewhat by job focus area: performance, quality, or process improvement, and Lean and Six Sigma.


PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS
Healthcare leaders may use the author's results to understand what competencies may be required for various improvement roles and to identify any gaps in required skills and knowledge areas that may need to be addressed. Educators and policy-makers should consider how these competencies align with employers' needs and what resources or professional development may be needed to address gaps.


ORIGINALITY/VALUE
This is the first healthcare improvement competencies analysis based on job postings.
How software organizations are using the ISO/IEC 29110 standard's processes: a survey of the state of the art and practice
Authors: J. Hauck; S. Leal
Year: 2020

ISO/IEC 29110 was developed containing a set of industrially validated practices that can potentially be adopted by software Very Small Entities (VSE). VSEs usually have characteristics that differentiate them from organizations of different sizes, such as extremely limited resources and informal project management processes, tending to adopt Agile methods and having an historical resistance to the adoption of standards, that are in general developed for large organizations. In this sense, our research question arises: "How are software organizations using the ISO/IEC 29110 practices?". To answer this question, a Systematic Mapping Study (SM), and a Survey with software organizations were carried out in order to identify the state of the art and the state of the practice in relation to the use of the standard's practices. The SM identified 21 primary studies reporting the use of the standard in hundreds of software organizations with positive results such as organizational learning, process improvement, improved communication, and also some negative results, such as deployment difficulties in technical areas and the need for additional time and resources. The Survey carried out with 23 software companies identified that, in general, companies do not explicitly know the content of the standard, but partially carry out, in accordance with the standard, practices related to planning, monitoring, control and execution of a project plan, and do not carry out requirements analysis or architecture and detailed design as defined in the standard.
[The interactions between the national, regional and intra-regional levels in public health programmes].
Authors: F. Jabot; R. Demeulemeester
Year: 2005

Defined and recognised as a relevant level for steering health policy, the regional level is also a strategically important level for integrating national orientations and local projects. Management models are identified based on an analysis of national plans and about twenty regional programmes. If normative reference irrevocably shapes the representation of programme implementation, then the experience of regional health programmes based on the establishment of partnerships and skills sharing has played an important training role function and has influenced the methods used at the national level. There is a need to find a balance between the drafting of plans and the awareness of local characteristics, and to build new relationships between these levels and clarify their roles.
Design of an Integrated System for Government Invested Construction Projects
Authors: Shuwei Wang; Sigen Song
Year: 2023

Due to the rapid development of information system, applying information system to engineering costs is currently an important issue. Because government investment construction projects have inherent characteristics and receive more attention than general projects, they have higher requirements for project management. Whether it is project application, review, or later project construction and completion acceptance, national investment projects require more efficient and scientific management. So this article attempts to design an integrated system for this type of project, providing reference for the healthy development of this type of project.

Year: 2017

The following paper describes the emergence and implementation of the joint Austrian teaching degree in the secondary field (general education) in the regional network cluster “Centre” (Upper Austria and Salzburg). The passing of the federal law governing a new form of teacher training created legal conditions necessitating a major process of change. The large number of cooperation partners involved in the implementation process required consistent project management, willingness to negotiate and clear commitment to the goal of attaining the best-possible quality in future teacher training. The article should be regarded as a project report outlining the implementation of the new teacher training in addition to indicating future prospects for the field.
