Abstract
Project management, project portfolio management (PPM), and project-based organizations (PBOs) literature lacks in approaching the development of dynamic capabilities (DCs). However, creating a competitive advantage through DCs has been considered a valued mechanism. Hence, this study critically reviews the literature, looking for cross-fertilization that bridges the literature on DCs with project management, PPM, and PBOs, using a multilevel perspective to organize the coding book and explore the microfoundations of DCs. Merging content analysis and bibliometrics, we identify 99 DCs clustered into three levels: project management, PPM, and PBOs. It proposes a multilevel framework that classifies the core DCs per level of analysis.
期刊介绍:
Project Management Journal (PMJ) is the academic and research journal of the Project Management Institute and features state-of-the-art research, techniques, theories, and applications in project management.
Projects represent a growing population of human activity in large, small, private, and public organizations. Projects are used to execute and sustain today's organizational activities. They play a fundamental role as the engine of tomorrow's innovation, value creation, and strategic change. However, projects often fail to deliver their promise.
PMJ addresses these multiple challenges and opportunities by encouraging the development and application of novel theories, concepts, frameworks, research methods, and designs. PMJ embraces contributions both from within and beyond project management to augment and transform theory and practice.
