The objective is to analyse the influence of project characteristics, such as project size, resource constraints, overlapping opportunities and rework, on the efficiency of overlapping in terms of reduction of the project makespan. An exact solution procedure and a metaheuristic are thus proposed to minimize the project makespan, while limiting the use of overlapping. A two-part model is used to conduct a statistical analysis of the influence of project characteristics on the makespan gain with overlapping. Results suggest that the best overlapping decision should consist in overlapping few pairs of overlappable activities with a large degree of overlapping. Furthermore, for complex projects, overlapping decisions should not rely solely on the criticality of the activities. These findings provide a better understanding of overlapping decisions and should guide planners in improving existing practices.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"378 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126723881","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}

That is why, recent studies have begun exploring the concept of resilience in project management. These studies aim to reinforce current project risk management practices and improve the capacity of a project to deal with disruptive events. Therefore, this paper reviews first the literature on the concepts of resilience, and of organizational resilience in order to propose a definition of project resilience and to set its dimensions. Second, the development of indicators to assess project resilience is achieved by conducting semi-structured interviews with 10 senior project managers from different industries, in which, 10 case studies were explored and analyzed. As a result, a definition is proposed, and 10 indicators are established to assess two dimensions of project resilience: awareness and adaptive capacity. In future research, these indicators would require a rigorous validation in different project types. This provides project team members with a robust set of indicators with which they would be able to assess their project’s capacity to effectively and efficiently deal with disruptive events.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"19 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116801192","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}

The existing research on project team coordination has mostly focused on large or innovative projects. In addition, the existing research has focused mostly on the ways project team coordination takes place in different projects, with less focus on how beneficial circumstances for coordination are created or promoted. This study contributes to these knowledge gaps by studying how a standardized project management methodology introduced by a parent organization can promote project team coordination in repetitive projects. An embedded single-case study design with qualitative interview-based data collection was followed. The case firm introduced a management framework in its service centers to promote project team coordination in repetitive maintenance projects. The interviewees perceived improvements in  communication, visibility of project and portfolio status information, and information sharing. The improvements were enabled by two coordination mechanisms of the management framework: regular meetings and visual whiteboards. The perceived improvements were considered beneficial for project team coordination, both within and between project teams.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130363996","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}

In addition, the system accounts for the relative importance of various stakeholders’ roles at different stages of a mega infrastructure project. A fuzzy-based multi-criterion decision-making technique used to develop the DSS assists the client to depict his/her best choices of contractual delivery methods. Further, the system provides the best mix of stakeholder entities that would likely provide the best environment for the project success. A two-step system calibration procedure was considered, including the expert judgment of 192 key stakeholder professionals worldwide. The fuzzy model performance was illustrated using default factor sets and sample inputs of differing weights for project risks, constraints, opportunities and the other critical categories affecting the decision-making process. Based on model results, the conventional delivery method (e.g., Design Bid Build) is least recommended if the project risk weighs more than 30%, as provided by the user.  With such an intricate system, the client can investigate the specifics of various project stages and study the effects of enhancements or deficiencies of the stakeholder entities’ capabilities.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"165 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127380194","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}

In this paper, we present the concept of project management ‘agilification’ as a smooth transition from TPM to APM. In order to develop their APM capabilities, companies need APM maturity models and scenarios to transform their project management routines. We defend that a key instrument of the TPM, which is the Project Management Maturity Model (P3M), can be adapted to APM. After identifying key principles in both TPM and APM, their convergences and divergences, this paper proposes a conceptual and practical framework consisting of behavior ontologies and two tools that facilitate this agilification: a maturity grid and a diagram displaying agilification scenarios. These proposals are applied on a case study related to the schedule management audit carried out by consultants in a large company.","PeriodicalId":320094,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Modern Project Management","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126726809","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}
