LSAFs embrace many typical PMO responsibilities; however, this study highlights that PMOs receive new and tentatively critical responsibilities when moving from a stakeholder position (ISO 21500) to (re-)institutionalizing as a core element in the project governance of enterprises. Essential PMO roles can be top-management alignment and reporting, cross-project coordination, funding and staffing, controlling, and external management of “political” and organizational matters. The research limitations relate to the use of Denmark as the key setting and the targeting of mostly larger companies and larger projects.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133594492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We identify and classify seven project management skills in management literature and, subsequently, we statistically investigate the link between these skills and the student performance during the course module. Also, a model to incorporate these skills in the Dynamic Scheduling framework is proposed and validated using Structural Equation Modeling. The results indicate that planning is key for good risk analysis and project control, and show that both types of skills are important for successful project management.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132748811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mattos","doi":"10.19255/JMPM02602","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.19255/JMPM02602","url":null,"abstract":"The project management (PM) has gained relevance in organizations for being considered a tool that increases the efficiency of the projects, allowing a better control of costs, schedule and quality of projects managed under the methodology. The traditional definition of success in PM is based on the triple constraint (cost/timeline/scope), for every type of project executed. In contrast to this approach arises the adaptive approach suggested by authors who advocate that each project must be measured and managed in a different way. Within this approach include the view that the project manager must assume the role of a team leader, and that human and relational issues are relevant to the performance of the project. This work consists of an explanatory and quantitative research that relates critical success of success with leadership skills. To define the capacities to be studied, four leadership theories served as the basis for the study. The results demonstrate that the leadership skills of the project manager impact significantly some critical factors of success, while others were not impacted. The comprehension about how the leadership skills of the project manager impact the critical factors of success of the project, can both bring greater effectiveness in the recruitment process, development and direction of project managers career, as well as assisting organizations and managers who use techniques and tools of project management to better assess and define critical factor of success of the projects. To the project managers, this work can assist in the understanding of how to mobilize their leadership skills in a more results and superior performance in their projects.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134152809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Collaborative Project Identity Formation Process in Complex Projects","authors":"Emmanuel Nyameke, H. Haapasalo, K. Aaltonen","doi":"10.19255/JMPM02612","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.19255/JMPM02612","url":null,"abstract":"Currently, the increase in relational project contracts and integrated project deliveries indicates that companies should collaborate to facilitate more effective project delivery in industrial projects. Collaborative project identity is considered a core concept in the evaluation of processes involved in collaborations between industrial projects. The concept implies that a single identity, one in which collaborative values, collaborative working practices and cooperation are central, is beneficial to a project organisation’s self-image and can distinguish the organisation from other project organisations. Therefore, this research aims to examine the processes involved in the formation of collaborative project identity in an industrial project. This identity cultivates a sense of joint belonging and a culture of cooperation that contributes to the success of a project. In order to acquire an in-depth understanding of this phenomenon, two projects were qualitatively researched as a case study of the processes involved in the formation of collaborative project identity in the delivery of an industrial project. More specifically, organisational documents, project materials, workshop materials, project websites and interviews were used as data collection sources. The findings of this study revealed five steps in the formation of collaborative project identity: (1) establishing a collaborative sense of meaning and purpose; (2) establishing a sense of shared responsibility; (3) building mutual trust among all participants; (4) Establishing workforce diversity; and (5) designing appropriate collaborative project management information systems. These research results could be used to support the development and management of high-performing collaborative project teams. They could additionally assist collaborative project organisations in actualising the innovation potential of all participants collaborating in joint projects – in the best interest of the project.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132052284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Having IT governance in place is one thing, but practicability in the project is another challenge for project managers. While the practice of governance is still a challenge to implement, stakeholder management within the context of IT governance adds complexity to managing local and foreign stakeholders that span country borders. This article provides an understanding of how IT governance and stakeholder management are inseparable when implementing global IT projects. Interviews were used to determine the industry best practices for multinational organisations and project practitioners’ experience in the implementation of global IT projects. The results highlight the link between stakeholder management and specific IT governance practices for proactively implementing global IT projects. A relationship management approach for project managers and other key project players to link both IT governance and stakeholder engagement is required. From a practical standpoint, the study explored the practitioners’ experience and practices of IT governance implementation in line with stakeholder management in various global IT projects.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127870194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on existing scientific research about troubling compatibility of PMBOK processes and agile frameworks, enhancements of five critical project processes are postulated. These process enhancements often focus on time-limited disruptions of agile actions and a separation of macro- and micro-management between agile developments and project management practices. To verify the effectiveness of such enhancement approaches, a quantitative survey explores the applicability and current state of usage. Results show that most proposed solutions are currently not widely used in IT project management although practitioners have evaluated them as useful. However, participants tend to increase the use when understanding more about the solutions. In combination with the discovered positive rating of the effectiveness of enhancement approaches, it can be summarized that the improvement approaches are a well-perceived step towards the enhancement of PMBOK processes in agile developed IT projects.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116036083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on a case study, this paper aims at analyzing the organizational enablers allowing the adoption of the project owner role for the benefit realization. We identified six organizational enablers, such as benefits management practices, change management practices, organizational leadership, information infrastructure, strong relationship with the project supplier and urgency for realizing benefits.

The search for so-called hybrid models has increased among different organizations and industrial sectors. Despite the interest, there is a lack of systematic procedures to effectively adapt hybrid models to specific projects. In order to bridge this gap, we propose a method to support the creation of hybrid models, based on a morphological matrix that allows the combination of practices to the specific needs of each project. The method was developed through a systematic literature review, a theoretical proposition phase and its evaluation in a single case study involving an information technology company. The results indicate that a customization by project is feasible, allowing professionals to be more assertive in creating customized management solutions. Finally, the study highlights the possibility of creating systematic procedures to assist organizations and professionals in choosing management practices for their projects and the consequent creation of hybrid models .","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124135505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
