Authors: Tirthankar Dasgupta; Lipika Dey; Prasenjit Dey; Rupsa Saha
Year: 2016

Any real world events or trends that can affect the company’s growth trajectory can be considered as risk. There has been a growing need to automatically identify, extract and analyze risk related statements from news events. In this demonstration, we will present a risk analytics framework that processes enterprise project management reports in the form of textual data and news documents and classify them into valid and invalid risk categories. The framework also extracts information from the text pertaining to the different categories of risks like their possible cause and impacts. Accordingly, we have used machine learning based techniques and studied different linguistic features like n-gram, POS, dependency, future timing, uncertainty factors in texts and their various combinations. A manual annotation study from management experts using risk descriptions collected for a specific organization was conducted to evaluate the framework. The evaluation showed promising results for automated risk analysis and identification.
Untying the knot of knowledge management measurement: a study of six public service agencies in Singapore
Authors: A. Chua; D. Goh
Year: 2008

This paper seeks to contribute to the on-going research in knowledge management (KM) by presenting a study conducted in six public service agencies in Singapore. The study was guided by three research foci, namely, (1) to elucidate the nebulous nature of KM initiatives, (2) to uncover the motivation behind KM measurement and (3) to identify the various elements of a KM initiative that can be measured. Data collected from the public service agencies revealed that KM initiatives were generally top-down and technology-focused. Project management and the need to quantify the value of KM initiatives drove KM measurement. The measurement indicators adopted by the agencies encompassed four elements of measurement: activities, knowledge assets, organizational processes and business outcomes. In conclusion, this paper highlights two practical implications for the design of a KM measurement regime and suggests a number of possible directions for further research.

Authors: Richard Kabera Mwangi; Prof. Levi Mbugua
Year: 2023

: In Makueni County, health projects are a key focus of development, receiving the second-highest number of projects and fifth-highest budget allocation. However, there have been delays in project completion, with 23 projects still ongoing and 23 delayed out of a total of 334 health projects (County Project Management System, 2017). Despite the importance of monitoring and evaluation in ensuring the success of these projects, the monitoring and evaluation process in Makueni is inadequate, with limited research on the influence of monitoring and evaluation functions such as planning, training, and frameworks on health project performance. This lack of emphasis on monitoring and evaluation has led to a potential risk of misusing public or donor funds and an increase in delayed projects or projects not achieving their expected outcomes. The purpose of the study was to analyze the influence of monitoring and evaluation on implementation of health projects in Makueni County. The specific objectives of this study were to (i) To establish the influence of M&E level of training on implementation of health projects in Makueni County. (ii) To analyze the influence of M&E planning on implementation of health projects in Makueni County. (iii) To analyze the influence of M&E systems on implementation of health projects in Makueni County. Theory of Change has been used in this study. The research methodology used was mixed as the study had both quantitative and qualitative data. A descriptive study design was adopted in this study. The projects of interest were the ones done from 2013 to 2018 fiscal years. The target population was 314 health project managers. A sample to represent the whole population consisted of 84 respondents selected from the target population by use of both stratified and simple random sampling methods. Primary data was collected using questionnaires. Variables namely monitoring and evaluation of human resources, implementation strategy, training, and planning were analyzed using R. The findings will enable the researcher to assist policy makers in Makueni County to develop better policies that will help the County come close to achieving the third Sustainable Development Goal of ensuring healthy lives and upraising the wellbeing of residents of all ages, by ensuring accountability in health projects. The study found that the majority of the project managers had been trained in M&E, but the level and length of training varied.
Hvordan kan vi oppnå det vi vil med digitalisering i helsesektoren?
Authors: M. Aanestad
Year: 2024

Artikkelen diskuterer utfordringer knyttet til håndtering av store og komplekse IT-prosjekter. Framover må vi som samfunn bli bedre på å minimere og håndtere sosioteknisk kompleksitet dersom vi skal unngå flere IT-skandaler. Flere ti-års forskning på hvordan denne kompleksiteten bør håndteres i fremveksten av informasjonsinfrastrukturer har ledet fram til alternative modeller for prosjektstyring. Imidlertid får denne forståelsen i liten grad gjennomslag i praksis på grunn av styringsverktøyene man er pålagt å bruke i offentlige IT-prosjekter. Dette kan bidra til å forklare hvorfor prosjekter kan feile selv om organisasjon opplever at de har gjort alt «riktig», og til å begrunne behovet for andre tilnærminger til digitaliseringsprosesser i offentlig sektor.
Abstract in English:
How Can We Achieve the Desired Effects of Digitization in the Healthcare Sector?
The article discusses challenges related to managing large and complex IT projects. We need to become better at minimizing and managing sociotechnical complexity if we are to avoid more IT scandals. Decades of research on how this complexity should be handled in the emergence of information infrastructures have led to alternative project management models. However, these understandings conflict with the project management tools that are mandated for use in public IT projects. This may help explain why projects can fail even though the organization feels they have done everything "right", and it underscores the need for other approaches to digitalization processes in the public sector.
A Simulation‐Based Approach in Support of Project Management Training for Systems Engineers
Authors: Izack Cohen; Michal Iluz; A. Shtub
Year: 2014

Project management is taught in most systems engineering graduate programs. Project management courses and training aids traditionally focus on aspects of project scope—for instance, scheduling and resource allocation methods—and tend to neglect product scope elements such as system performance. This article offers a simulation‐based approach for project management training that integrates project and product aspects within simulation training. The result is an integrated approach that guides the trainee through the initiation, conceptual design, planning and execution phases of the simulated project. The trainee explores the tradeoffs between project and product constraints and demands—just as if he or she were working on a real job. A pilot experiment that we conducted and the trainees' evaluations of the simulation provide an initial indication that the proposed approach is efficient, motivating us to suggest a framework for its use in systems engineering programs.
Addressing Individual Perception: Extending the Technology Acceptance Model to the Interim Payment Method in Construction Projects
Authors: Lei Zhu; Hui Xiong; Y. Ning; Miaomiao Lv
Year: 2023

An increasing trend in late payment and nonpayment of construction projects would hinder the sustainable development of projects by impeding progress or causing disputes. Although the interim payment method is a good practice to solve payment-related problems of construction projects, its acceptance rate is low, and studies on it are few. Therefore, this research aims to extend the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to understand practitioners’ acceptance behavior toward the interim payment method. By adopting TAM, this study established an acceptance model of the interim payment method, which consists of four constructs and 25 indicators, and validated it through 131 survey data collected in Jiangsu Province, China. The results showed that the adoption rate for public projects (17%) was much lower than that of private projects (44.8%). The results revealed that environmental factors, perceived usefulness, and attitude increase practitioners’ acceptance, while the perceived ease of use impedes practitioners’ acceptance. In addition, the settlement process and pricing method impact the ease of use the most and could be breakthrough points for improvement in the future. Moreover, the perceived usefulness significantly affects practitioners’ attitudes but does not affect behavioral intention. This study contributes to the body of knowledge of project management by identifying the key causes of the low acceptance of the interim payment method and provides strategies for further improvement. The findings would help to inform the decision-making in policies, strategies, and incentive schemes to increase practitioners’ acceptance in China and worldwide.

The construction industry, a driver for economic development worldwide, faces productivity challenges in Uganda, particularly in labour-intensive activities like in situ concrete beam construction. This study aims to identify and rank the factors influencing the production rate of reinforced in situ concrete beam construction in Kampala and Wakiso districts using principal component analysis (PCA). These factors including but not limited to weather, beam design and site conditions represent the independent variables while the production rate is the dependent variable. These variables were contextualized using a mixed-method approach in which data were collected from 20 construction sites through on-site measurements, a literature review and interviews. PCA was then employed to analyse the data and isolate the most influential factors on production rate, singling out beam length, daily temperature, the number of helpers, and the number of steel fixers, with average coefficients of 0.98, 0.882, 0.78, and 0.36, respectively, as the most significant. Therefore, this study provides an empirical ranking of factors influencing in situ concrete beam construction production rates, offering a foundation for better resource allocation and project management in Uganda’s construction sector.

Authors: Jiesheng Yang; A. Wilde; K. Menzel; Md Zubair Sheikh; Boris Kuznetsov
Year: 2023

Construction progress monitoring (CPM) is essential for effective project management, ensuring on-time and on-budget delivery. Traditional CPM methods often rely on manual inspection and reporting, which are time-consuming and prone to errors. This paper proposes a novel approach for automated CPM using state-of-the-art object detection algorithms. The proposed method leverages e.g. YOLOv8's real-time capabilities and high accuracy to identify and track construction elements within site images and videos. A dataset was created, consisting of various building elements and annotated with relevant objects for training and validation. The performance of the proposed approach was evaluated using standard metrics, such as precision, recall, and F1-score, demonstrating significant improvement over existing methods. The integration of Computer Vision into CPM provides stakeholders with reliable, efficient, and cost-effective means to monitor project progress, facilitating timely decision-making and ultimately contributing to the successful completion of construction projects.

Authors: V. Nguyen; Manuel Kolp; Yves Wautelet
Year: 2018

Governing Knowledge Management in a Requirements-Driven Software Processes such as (GI-) Tropos or even waterfall, V, UP-based ones allows IT managers to propose rules for efficient handling of information and resources to cope with stakeholders’ requirements. On the one hand, Knowledge Management Governance in software engineering has to ensure that software organization business processes determine organizational knowledge access conditions, quality maintenance, decision making processes and means of resolving knowledge management obstacles of the organization. On the other hand, requirements-driven software methods are development processes using high-level social-oriented models to drive the software life cycle both in terms of project management and deductive iterative engineering techniques. Typically, such methods are well-suited for the straightforward inclusion and adaptation of knowledge management governance principles into the software development life cycle. To consolidate both perspectives, this paper proposes a generic framework allowing to drive Knowledge Management in the GI-Tropos software processes.

Completing a project on time and on budget are essential factors for the success of any project. One technique that allows predicting the final cost of a project is earned value management (EVM). In this technique, different mathematical methods for predicting the final project cost have been proposed over the last 30 years. These formulas make use of activities’ actual costs and durations as the project progresses. EVM is a technique widely used by many project management professionals. However, very few studies have compared the stability and accuracy of the multiple existing methods for predicting the final cost of the project (commonly abbreviated as estimated cost at completion, EAC). This study compares the stability and accuracy of 30 deterministic cost prediction methods (EAC) in EVM. For this purpose, a representative database of 4100 simulated projects of various topological structures is used. Our results suggest that the methods with the simplest mathematical configurations achieve better stability and accuracy performance. Knowing which EVM methods are the most stable and accurate for predicting the final cost of the project will help project practitioners choose the most reliable cost prediction techniques when they are managing their own projects in real contexts.
Modeling open source software bugs with complex networks

Year: 2010

A major concern in open source software development is regarding bugs emerging during the life circle of a software project. Understanding the topological characteristics of interrelated bugs can provide useful insights into software project management and potentially facilitate the development of new complex network models. In this paper, we analyze the bug network in Gentoo Linux, one of the most popular Linux distributions. We model software bugs as nodes and the blocking relationships among them as edges. As the resulting Gentoo bug network cannot be adequately explained by some commonly-used complex network models, we propose a new model, which can better explain this network.
