The research design was a robust repeated measures controlled experiment where the 16 participants received all treatments, which may be contrasted to a similar 4 x 4 factorial experiment with a control group (common in psychology or healthcare) resulting in a group size of only 4. All but the individual project manager (PM) factors were controlled, while primary demographic and behavior data were collected. PM’s were tested for competence using a risk management scenario, and given two manipulated conditions (a basic and a biased treatment). Since the organizational and project level factors were controlled, some individual level factors impacted the decision. PM’s with higher competence made better decisions, with a 22% effect size, when all other factors in the model were accounted for. Competent non-certified PM’s made better decisions as compared to certified incompetent PM’s.","PeriodicalId":43211,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology Project Management","volume":"83 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83481404","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}

Therefore, the core objective of this study was to investigate how organizational culture affects the knowledge transfer process in project-intensive IT organizations. We conducted a multiple-case study with in-depth semi-structured interviews from two IT consultancy companies. We identified five main categories of factors within organizational culture that have a significant effect on knowledge transfer in project-intensive IT companies: organizational values, relationships and communication, leadership, project characteristics, and individual factors. The role of organizational values, cooperation, and leaders’ behavior are all crucial for successful knowledge transfer. Organizational values must support knowledge transfer. Cooperation creates the best environment for knowledge transfer, and leaders must be aware of their behavior.","PeriodicalId":43211,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology Project Management","volume":"83 3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87650316","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}

To obtain accurate data, this research used qualitative research and coding in the grounded theory, to explore resource management issues in the development of information systems. The results indicated that the stakeholders possessed different resources, and these resources shared amongst them is important, as these stakeholders have a common goal towards the software development project. Thus, the common goals and interests are essential to overcome the ineffective coordination between the vendors and clients. This study assesses resource management from the common goal identification perspective and extends resource management research from the internal organizations to external organizations. In practices, this study assists the group coordination strategy in designing a practicable resource management plan together.","PeriodicalId":43211,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology Project Management","volume":"97 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85896502","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}

A comprehensive literature review is conducted to study different project management functions and project success measures. The data collected on a validated list of 19 project management office functions and 14 project success measures obtained from the literature. The analyses have two parts, one to compare the project performance of organizations that have PMO to those who do not have, using excel sheets by averaging the responses for each measure. The second part is to study the relationship between PMO functions and project success measures using structural equation modeling SEM in SMARTPLS-S software. Sixteen hypotheses were generated for analyses in SEM and five of these hypotheses were validated while the remaining 11 could not be validated. The results reported that PMO organizational learning functions directly impact project outcomes, while functions of project monitoring and controlling partially impacts customer satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":43211,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology Project Management","volume":"68 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80272159","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}

Career development activities, signaling theory, expectancy theory, and pay transparency are used as theoretical frameworks to examine how country, job position, team size, and PMP certification status impact salaries. I use preexisting salary survey data from 42 countries to show that organizations and individuals may need to consider the signals and expectations they make concerning rewards and the impacts to career development on individual expectations and organizational performance. I further suggest that the use of signaling theory and expectancy theory will support multinational organizations that engage in pay transparency practices.","PeriodicalId":43211,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology Project Management","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90643173","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}

However, students’ use and reuse of technology have received little attention. The purpose of this research is to examine if students working in a team will use the same technology with which they have experience and reuse it again. Also, the purpose of this research is to examine the reasons for reusing technology. The Technology Continuance Theory (Liao et al., 2009) is used in this research as an explanatory theory for the reuse of collaboration and communication technologies in teamwork. The findings support experience with a technology as the main driver of reuse of the same technology. The findings also suggest perception of technology usefulness as the main reasons for reuse.","PeriodicalId":43211,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology Project Management","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87723307","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}

Thus, this research proposes a library of heuristics that allows evaluating the alignment of project portfolios to the desired qualities, given a strategy and a set of objectives. The heuristics related to the metrics are proposed to enable the measurement of qualities in EA such as reliability, availability, performance, security as well as alignment. Several heuristics are identified for each quality: regarding functionality, it is possible to identify three heuristics, for the quality reliability it is possible to identify one heuristic, for the quality of maintenance it is possible to identify four heuristics, for the quality alignment it is possible to identify nine heuristics and, finally, for the quality dimension it is possible to identify three heuristics. The solution is applied to government projects in the context of identification documents.","PeriodicalId":43211,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology Project Management","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84944360","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}

When successfully implemented, IFMIS can bring about a reform in the country's financial management by reduce corruption and financial mismanagement. The study uses stratified and purposeful sampling methods and a questionnaire to collect from 346 employees in selected government departments. The study employs descriptive statistics to both assess IFMIS effectiveness and the effect of information and communications technology (ICT) competency in IFMIS implementation. Moreover, multiple regression analysis is used to determine the extent of top management support on IFMIS implementation success. The findings reveal that IFMIS is an effective tool in public financial management; however, the lack of ICT competency and top management support systems are the major factors required for a successful implementation of IFMIS. Recommendations are made to reduce the challenges associated with IFMIS implementation.","PeriodicalId":43211,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology Project Management","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87769731","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}

However, delivering quality software is reliant on effective management of various organizational, technological and people aspects. This research is to identify and evaluate the determinants of quality on software projects delivered by vendors through offshoring. Data related to recently completed projects were collected through a survey of 440 project managers from Indian vendors. Based on structural equation modeling, the authors analyze the influence determinants on specific product quality attributes. It is found that, out of six determinants, technical infrastructure and process maturity have significant influence on most of the attributes of quality in offshored IS projects from India.

The framework is designed based on project selection and accountability literature and empirical data. Empirical data was collected through semi-structured interviews with project individuals working at organizations operating in information technology and working with information technology projects. This method was chosen since the authors considered it to be appropriate for providing a deeper understanding of social phenomena through enabling the researchers to explore the views, experiences and beliefs of motivations of project individuals on specific matters. The framework reveals that project individuals use multiple strategies to deal with accountability, depending on audience and on forms of accountability. How project individuals deal with accountabilities depends on how trust, transparency and legitimacy are embedded in the different principal-agent relationships and the context that the project individuals are involved in during the selection phase.","PeriodicalId":43211,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology Project Management","volume":"13 1","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87627331","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}
