New strong calculations and, specifically, the openness of the web as a monstrous store of unstructured information have rekindled the issue of AI's worth as processing power has expanded. This is empowering for the field of development the board specifically, as development projects are filling in size and intricacy as time and monetary constraints increment the quantity of stakeholders with contending needs. By the day's end, development the executives' utilized to get everything all together with the goal that precise expectations can be made about the end result. The subject of Artificial Intelligence (AI) incorporates AI as a subset and an assortment of related innovations. K-Nearest Neighbour's (KNN) is a famous managed learning strategy, making it one of the most broadly utilized AI calculations. In light of financial information in Vietnam, this article utilized the K-Nearest Neighbour's (KNN) calculation to appraise the development cost file. The structure cost record determining model utilized information from 2016–2019 and was predicated on seven financial factors. As per the discoveries, the K-Nearest Neighbour's (KNN) relapse technique utilized in the development cost list forecast model superior exactness over the customary strategy.
Exploring the Project Owner’s Behaviour of Addressing Sustainability in Project Assignment and Governance
Authors: Gilbert Silvius; Ronald Ursem; José Magano
Year: 2023

The instrumental role of projects in the transition of organisations and society towards sustainability requires that the concepts of sustainability are considered in projects and project management. Within a project’s organisation, the project manager and the project owner bear the most responsibility for integrating sustainability into the execution, management, and governance of the project. The project owner is expected to translate the organisation’s commitment to sustainability into the assignment and governance of the project. However, several factors influence the behaviour of project owners, of which the organisation’s strategy is only one. Following the studies that explored the stimulus of project managers to consider or address sustainability, this study explored the factors that influence the project owner’s behaviour with regard to addressing sustainability in assigning and governing a project. A survey-based study with quantitative data analysis identified three factors that stimulate the project owners to address sustainability in assigning and governing projects: Organisational attitude, Private attitude, and Practical implementation. Of these factors, Practical implementation and Organisational attitude have the most influence. The importance of the Practical implementation factor highlights the need for practical, applicable tools and instruments that support the implementation of sustainability into projects and project management. The strong orientation on the organisational context may be explained by the managerial responsibility that project owners often have. The study contributes to the further understanding of how organisations can realise their transition to a sustainable enterprise.

Year: 2018

The purpose of this paper is to identify the factors affecting ERP projects and to classify them based on their project management knowledge areas. Previous studies were reviewed in order to identify the factors affecting ERP project performance. Next, the factors were categorised based on their project management knowledge areas. Finally, the knowledge areas were ranked according to their occurrence in literature. The results showed that, the four knowledge areas that affect ERP project performance the most are communication, human resource, time management and risk management. Understanding the factors that affect ERP projects has been a subject of considerable interest to many academics. Despite the many studies providing clear evidence on factors affecting ERP projects, vast majority of the literature has tended to approach the topic in a general manner while ignoring the issue of categorisation of such factors. In this paper, we seek close such gap.

S-curve adjustment approaches for a force majeure event: COVID-19 as an example
Authors: Jyh-Bin Yang; Ying-Fu Chen
Year: 2023

PurposeAn S-curve is an essential project-management tool. However, it is difficult to adjust S-curve to deal with a force majeure event. The present study develops four valuable adjustment approaches, designed to achieve a compromise between the views of the client and contractor. These can be used to control projects after a force majeure event.Design/methodology/approachThe present study develops four adjustment approaches, which can be used to achieve a compromise between the views of the client and those of the contractor when controlling projects after a force majeure. To determine the S-curves during a force majeure event, two approaches can be selected: BCWS (budgeted cost of scheduled work)-base approach, or BCWP (budgeted cost of work performed)-base approach. To determine the rest of S-curves after a force majeure event, two approaches can be considered: maintaining the original curve of the remaining BCWS, or allocating the original curve of the remaining BCWS. Based on the validation of three empirical cases, drawn from a professional project-management website, this study confirms the feasibility of four proposed empirical approaches and a selection procedure for S-curve adjustment.FindingsThe S-curve-adjustment approaches presented here can be used to deal with cases that are ahead of, on and behind schedule. Using the proposed approaches and selection procedure, contractors can easily revise S-curves and control projects more effectively. To deal with a force majeure event, such as COVID-19, they are strongly advised to adopt the approaches labeled SA-A1 (to adjust the S-curve based on the extension ratio multiplied by the difference in progress during the force majeure) and SA-B1 (to maintain the original curve of the remaining BCWS) for the A/E and E/F curves, respectively.Research limitations/implicationsThe proposed approaches can be used in cases of continuous construction during force majeure events. If construction work is totally suspended during such an event, it will be necessary to fine-tune the proposed approaches.Originality/valuePrevious studies have used case-oriented or mathematical-simulation approaches to forecast S-curves. The present study proposes simple approaches that allow the client and contractor to adjust the S-curve easily after a force majeure event. These approaches can be used to adjust work and project-completion targets within an extended duration. Selecting the right S-curve adjustment approach can help to control the remainder of the project, reducing the possibility of delay claims.
Configurations for Interorganizational Project Networks
Authors: Timo Braun
Year: 2018

Projects are becoming increasingly interorganizational; therefore, typically, the project management office (PMO) of a single corporation is neither capable of nor authorized to supplying all partners of a project network with services and knowledge. On the interorganizational level, a network administrative organization (NAO) may be founded providing similar services such as those provided by PMOs, but then to all network partners. This conceptual article seeks to integrate these streams of research by comparing the roles and tasks of PMOs and NAOs, as well as their organizational embeddedness. Thereupon, four modes of interplay between these organizational entities are developed and underpinned with exemplary configurations.

Year: 2018

Social science and health services research have much to gain from cross-national qualitative research, yet the logistics involved in setting up such studies, especially where different languages and health systems are involved, can seem daunting. In this article, we highlight issues to consider and suggest some solutions, drawing both on the literature and examples from our own cross-national research. We highlight the issues involved with synchronizing staffing and funding, ensuring comparable methods, project management, and communication between research groups, the consequences of the different criteria for ethical approval for recruitment, the challenge of working with multiple languages, teams involving different disciplines and skill sets, and coordinating and timing data collection and analysis. The aim of this article is to draw on the literature, which includes several useful insights, as well as reflections from our own cross-national research, to highlight considerations for cross-national qualitative research teams. Our approach is to highlight and discuss potential challenges and suggest potential solutions, using the format of an illustrated literature review.

Authors: D. A. Pletnev; Yulia A. Menshikova; Anastasia A. Tokareva
Year: 2024

Project management is actively used in strategic public administration in Russia. New national projects are currently being developed, which will largely determine the trajectory of achieving national development goals. To what extent is the methodology of project management effective and universal in public administration? What areas and types of activities are best suited for the implementation of project management? Are there any successful foreign practices that can be used in the development of national Russian projects? The article presents the results of generalization of foreign experience of project management in the public sector. Methodologically, the study is presented by a systematic analysis of academic publications as having greater reliability and impartiality than official reports. More than 30 projects from countries such as France, the United States, Pakistan, Ghana, Australia, Egypt, Chile, and the United Kingdom related to such areas as the energy and water industries, military industry, transport and construction, ecology and nature conservation, information technology, socio-cultural projects and the space industry were analyzed. As a result of the study, it was found that the success factors of the projects were: stable and strong financial and organizational support from the state; effective management and involvement of leading specialists; participation of a wide range of stakeholders. The most successful areas of application of the project approach can be considered information technology and energy. Among the factors that negatively affect the success of project implementation, it is necessary to include excessive generalization or blurring of goals, uncertainty of the circle of stakeholders.

Functional group roles in software engineering teams
Authors: Georgine Beranek; W. Zuser; T. Grechenig
Year: 2005

For building and leading successful software engineering teams it is vital to understand their team structure as well as many other "soft" factors, e.g. the personality and skills of individual team members. A key element of the team structure, besides power distribution, knowledge distribution etc., is the role distribution within the team. The role distribution has a twofold aspect: first, the formal role distribution, which is defined by the standard process and role model or the project management, and second, the informal role distribution which grows within a team by the natural interactions between the team members and is based to some extent upon their individual characteristics.This paper presents an empirical examination of the informal role distribution in student software engineering teams and compares the results to the concept of functional group roles.
Managing healthcare technology in quality management framework
Authors: P. Dey; Seetharaman Hariharan; W. Ho
Year: 2007

Healthcare services available these days deploy high technology to satisfy both internal and external customers by continuously improving various quality parameters. Quality improvement in healthcare services is a complex and multidimensional task. Although various quality management tools are routinely deployed for identifying quality issues in healthcare delivery, there is absence of an integrated approach, which can identify and analyse issues, provide solutions to resolve those issues and develop a project management framework to implement and evaluate those solutions. This study introduces an integrated and uniform quality management framework for healthcare services. This study uses the Logical Framework Analysis (LFA) to improve the performance of healthcare services. LFA has three major steps - problem identification, solution derivation and formation of a planning matrix for implementation and evaluation. LFA has been applied in a case study environment to three acute healthcare services (Operating Room (OR) utilisation, Accident and Emergency (A&E) and intensive care) in order to demonstrate its effectiveness.
