Gestión de proyectos de ciencia abierta. Una experiencia de investigación acción participativa
Authors: Santiago Roca
Year: 2024

Participatory action research is characterized because it involves people in the definition of problems and action alternatives in order to help transform a situation. As such, it is found between the gaze of the researcher and the participants, who intertwine to form a mode of intersubjective interpretation and co-responsible action of the situation to overcome. Therefore, participatory action research favors learning processes among those who serve as formal researchers, the primary participants and the interested parties, who make up a plural human group that accounts for a process of investigation and change in the environment. This essay presents a participatory action research experience in the field of knowledge project management, as part of the foundation of an open science knowledge asset creation approach. As such, it is proposed to offer two contributions: a consideration of participatory action research in the design of research goods development processes, and an argument in favor of participatory research processes in the field of open science.
Systems Engineering approach to final design freeze in uncertain project environments
Authors: M. Wiboonrat
Year: 2015

The ordinary characteristics of data center project are complex systems subject to interdependent systems, combining multiple technical disciplines, integrated system platform, and rapid changes of technologies. Traditional project management discipline may not answer all those function needs. Systems Engineering (SE) is a multidisciplinary approach and indicates to enable the realization of successful systems in complex and uncertain environments. It achieves these objectives by defining business' needs and required functionality early in the project development cycle, documenting requirements, design freeze and analysis, monitoring and control cycles, system validation, and system operation while considering the complete problems. The research uses 21 case studies and al literature survey to demonstrate the benefits of systems engineering to final design freeze in uncertain project environment such as data center. The case studies reflex the distorted processes of interpreting business requirements and constraints to final data center design that affects a long-term operation costs.

Summary Background: The federal government is promoting adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) through financial incentives for EHR use and implementation support provided by regional extension centers. Small practices have been slow to adopt EHRs. Objectives: Our objective was to measure time to EHR implementation and identify factors associated with successful implementation in small practices receiving financial incentives and implementation support. This study is unique in exploiting quantitative implementation time data collected prospectively as part of routine project management. Methods: This mixed-methods study includes interviews of key informants and a cohort study of 544 practices that had worked with the Primary Care Information Project (PCIP), a publicly funded organization that since 2007 has subsidized EHRs and provided implementation support similar to that supplied by the new regional extension centers. Data from a project management database were used for a cohort study to assess time to implementation and predictors of implementation success. Results: Four hundred and thirty practices (79%) implemented EHRs within the analysis period, with a median project time of 24.7 weeks (95% CI: 23.3 – 26.4). Factors associated with implementation success were: fewer providers, practice sites, and patients; fewer Medicaid and uninsured patients; having previous experience with scheduling software; enrolling in 2010 rather than earlier; and selecting an integrated EHR plus practice management product rather than two products. Interviews identified positive attitude toward EHRs, resources, and centralized leadership as additional practice-level predictors of success. Conclusions: A local initiative similar to current federal programs successfully implemented EHRs in primary care practices by offsetting software costs and providing implementation assistance. Nevertheless, implementation success was affected by practice size and other characteristics, suggesting that the federal programs can reduce barriers to EHR implementation but may not eliminate them.

Competing institutional logics in healthcare organizations: theorising digitalism
Authors: Lars Erik Kjekshus; B. Bygstad
Year: 2024

PurposeThe digitalisation of healthcare services has proven to be difficult, with numerous negative effects. We argue that the reason for the problem is not poor project management, but a clash of different institutional logics. The aim of this article is to explore, define and theorise the concept of digitalism, as a term for a new institutional logic in contrast to other, more known logics in organisations, such as managerialism and professionalism, to better understand processes of digitalisation.Design/methodology/approachWe illustrate our arguments with a case study of a process of organizational development before and after the implementation of centralised large-scale IT systems at a large Norwegian hospital. Data was extracted from documents and observations from January 2015 to January 2016 during an organizational audit. In addition, a follow-up study was conducted in 2019 and 2024 by interviewing eight key personnel who were involved in the implementation process.FindingsThe implementation of a new digital health record in a Norwegian hospital is a process of social restructuring that involves new actors, logics and control systems. The process of digitalisation shows us how digitalism create tensions, diverges and merges with other institutional logics.Practical implicationsUnderstanding digitalism as a sensitising concept offers insights into how large-scale technology and organizations are tied together and can help to reduce organizational dysfunctionalities and improve the implementation of IT systems.Originality/valueThis study contributes to a new understanding of digitalisation processes and links an ongoing theoretical debate on the digitalisation of organizations with empirical findings.

Year: 2010

Software development effort estimation is one of the most major activities in software project management. A number of models have been proposed to construct a relationship between software size and effort; however we still have problems for effort estimation. This is because project data, available in the initial stages of project is often incomplete, inconsistent, uncertain and unclear. The need for accurate effort estimation in software industry is still a challenge. Artificial Neural Network models are more suitable in such situations. The present paper is concerned with developing software effort estimation models based on artificial neural networks. The models are designed to improve the performance of the network that suits to the COCOMO Model. Artificial Neural Network models are created using Radial Basis and Generalized Regression. A case study based on the COCOMO81 database compares the proposed neural network models with the Intermediate COCOMO. The results were analyzed using five different criterions MMRE, MARE, VARE, Mean BRE and Prediction. It is observed that the Radial Basis Neural Network provided better results

Power BI is a unified and scalable platform for enterprise and self-service business intelligence (BI), its use has increased a lot in recent times due to its possibilities in terms of quality and speed for the practical implementation applied to different processes, in the protection of data in Power BI reports, dashboards and datasets as well as when it is shared outside the organization or exported to other formats such as Excel, PowerPoint and PDF. In the case of project management, even though it is not expanding today, it is possible to predict its future applicability on a large scale. The present work aimed to implement the PBI tool in the management of research and development projects in the Laboratory of Embedded Systems of the Hub of Technologies of the Superior School of Technology. The results obtained make it possible to visualize the extent of its application both in the scope of project management and in the management of production processes in the Industrial Pole of Manaus.

Although project management is widely used in the public sector, many projects still fail even when project management tools and practices are employed. Several studies show that a project's success depends partly on the project manager's competencies; however, there is little empirical research on this subject in the public sector. This study aims to analyze the significant characteristics linked with the competencies of the public sector project manager and outlines a profile of these professional competencies characteristics that can lead to the success of projects. Through empirical research conducted with 77 project managers from 32 public organizations in Brazil, this study examined the relationship between project managers' competencies and the likelihood that projects will succeed. Using factor analysis and logistic regression, we looked at factors like time, cost, quality, and scope to determine their relationship to the likelihood that projects will succeed. The findings highlight the importance of project management knowledge, communication abilities, attitudes relating to motivation, trust, and emotional intelligence, and most traits defining project managers in the public sector. The employee's length of service was the single factor that had a negative impact on the project's outcomes. This study contributes to the current knowledge of project managers' competencies in the public sector, showing the main characteristics a successful project manager needs to have and can help direct efforts in selecting a more suitable professional, contributing to the reduction of the turnover of the workforce and the consequent loss of knowledge of the organization.

For any building project, the project management triangle QCT (Quality, Cost, Time) are decisive in the decision-making process. Indeed, better, faster and cheaper remain very important goals in the design of new industrial products in a competitive environment. In this paper, we propose a reference framework to formalize the quality criterion that characterizes a building made during a project. A quality measurement is then defined based on the performance levels of the functions actually provided by a building and the requirements originally formulated by its owner. In addition, a modeling of the building production process is proposed to observe the effects of technical or managerial choices on the expected quality of a new or renovated building. Finally, a representation of the level of performance of each building technical attribute over its life cycle is proposed in order to represent the performance recovery allowed by a renovation operation as a resilience process. In the end of this paper, a section is dedicated to a computational experiment for illustrating the theoretical approach.
Evaluation of project management tools towards effective events delivery in Onitsha, Anambra State
Year: 2023

This study was carried out with the aim to evaluate project management tools towards effective events delivery in Onitsha, Anambra State. In order to achieve the aim of the research, the following objectives were used which are to examine if events qualify as projects considering the time frames, to analyze managing events as projects considering the cost implication of organizing and executing the events and to compare the outputs of managing events as projects against the unprofessional management of events in developing and under-developed countries. This study is anchored on “The Theory of Path dependence”, which is a concept in economics and the social sciences, referring to processes where past events or decisions constrain later events or decisions. The google forms research tool was used as a tool for sampling, data collection and analysis. Findings indicate that the respondents agree that their knowledge of event management is mostly moderate for 57% of the respondent, high for 26% and very high for 13%. The responses to whether event management is restricted to bridals and catering services indicated no huge variation as only 9.8% indicated very highly restricted, 32.8% indicated highly restricted, 37.9% indicated moderately restricted. 14.5% indicated lowly restricted and 5.1% indicated very lowly restricted. This result reveals the thoughts pattern of an average person in Onitsha regarding event management. However, the respondents claim moderate knowledge of project management with 47% of indicating moderate understanding of the field. In conclusion from the research conducted, most of the respondents believe that events management and project management are related. Also, the result of analysis of data showed that events can be managed more successfully with project management tools and techniques. Based on the findings, the work therefore recommends that the event management industry in Nigeria should inaugurate a body with value driven leaders to chart the course for the growth of the industry in Nigeria by organizing seminars, workshops and conferences to impact project management knowledge.

Authors: Jean M. Breny; Shannon L. McMorrow
Year: 2022

When our photovoice research intersected with the COVID-19 pandemic, we were thrust into a new world of adapting the method in the virtual environment. Between both authors, we had over two decades of experience implementing photovoice. However, that involved tried and true methods of working face to face and side by side with people in community-based settings. This article describes lessons learned from two virtual photovoice projects. One involved pivoting from a project already well underway in person to online and the other was designed for virtual implementation since that was the only option available. Key considerations discussed are navigating our institutional review boards, adapting project management, building community online, and sharing results and advocacy for social change. Dilemmas and key decisions in each of these areas are described for practitioners and community-based researchers who need or seek to transition their photovoice research to the virtual environment. Practical tips and strategies for implementation are described and offered to photovoice researchers.
Big Data Adoption in Project Management: Insights From French Organizations
Authors: Tuba Bakici; A. Nemeh; Öncü Hazır
Year: 2021

Big data have the potential to revolutionize the project management, but it is not clear how. Despite the growing interest, there is a paucity of exploratory research to assess the practice and the impact of big data tools and technologies on project management approaches and practices. To address this gap, in this article, we initially embrace the technological–organizational–environmental (TOE) framework as the research basis for the adoption process and conducts in-depth interviews with project managers from French organizations in different sectors. The synthesis of interviews reveals that many organizations are still in the early stage of the adoption process, mainly due to a lack of resources, especially expertise. Besides the factors of the three contexts of TOE, the project-level factors are also found to be critical for the adoption of big data in project management. Most of them adopted big data solutions to support them in the conception, definition, and execution phases of project management. Drawing on the findings, this article also provides guidelines to broaden the understanding of big data applications and their role in project management. Based on these results, we present a model with testable propositions and discuss insights that arise for organizations and project managers regarding how to apply big data tools and technologies to create value and overcome the related challenges.

Background The management of liver transplantation has become a complex process involving different healthcare professionals. Teamwork, standardisation and definition of the best practices are essential for success, patient satisfaction and society’s favourable perception of transplantation programmes. ISO 9001:2015 certification provides the necessary elements to help implement a quality management system (QMS) to ensure that patient care is performed with the highest guarantees of clinical quality and safety. The aim of this study is to describe the steps, strengths and limitations in the implementation of a QMS in a liver transplant programme (LTP). Project management method This included analysing the starting point, setting up a working group, training, defining the scope of certification, preparing documentation, and conducting an internal and external audit, which culminated in the ISO 9001 quality certification award. The scope of QMS includes all the processes of LTP, from referral of candidates to long-term follow-up after transplantation. Results The project was structured in seven phases that took place between 2008 and 2011. The implementation of QMS led to the generation of all the necessary documentation to meet the requirements of the standard, including internal and legal requirements related to the transplant activity. The establishment of indicators to measure the effectiveness of processes, risk management and the identification of incidents allows us to implement measures devoted to avoiding the deficiencies and to meet the established objectives. Conclusion ISO 9001:2015 certification has contributed to the adaptation of a new quality and safety culture focused on the patient. All activities are protocolised, everything is recorded, measured, and verified, and all steps are taken as planned. Work is carried out in terms of continuous improvement. This has led to less variability in daily clinical practice and a better understanding of work dynamics.
