Conceptually, dynamic capabilities should be relevant antecedents for portfolio agility since they help organizations cope with dynamic environments. Dynamic capabilities disaggregate into three dimensions: <em>sensing</em> market and technology opportunities, <em>seizing</em> opportunities through prioritizing and exploiting them, and continuously <em>reconfiguring</em> assets and structures. Although previous literature emphasizes the importance of dynamic capabilities for project portfolio management (PPM), former research rarely analyzed dynamic capabilities in PPM empirically. Further, dynamic capabilities can be conceptualized differently, and it remains unclear how different conceptualizations coexist and what effects they have on the results of a study. This paper quantitatively investigates the relationship between dynamic capabilities’ dimensions (sensing, seizing, and reconfiguring) and project portfolio agility and success using a multi-informant, cross-industry sample of 135 project portfolios. The findings show that dynamic capabilities positively relate to portfolio agility and that portfolio agility mediates the relationship between dynamic capabilities and portfolio success. Surprisingly, sensing, seizing, and reconfiguring do not have entirely complementary effects. Instead, at least two of the three dimensions must be strongly present to enhance portfolio agility positively. The study underscores the importance of dynamic capabilities for portfolio agility. It contributes to the literature on portfolio agility in PPM and a more differentiated view of dynamic capabilities' dimensions and their consequences.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Project Management","volume":"41 4","pages":"Article 102469"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46533192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We apply structural equation modeling, using dyadic empirical data from 102 infrastructure projects. The overall results verify our developed model and illuminate how the interplay between contractual and relational governance, in terms of coordinative and collaborative SCI, mediates the effect of technical and organizational complexity on project performance.

Intriguingly, despite major advances in megaproject management practice, policy, and tools in the last decades, delays, budget blowouts, and scope creep remain empirical regularities. In this essay, to crack the megaproject puzzle, I advocate drawing on new stakeholder theory - a nascent stakeholder perspective in strategy research that invites us to look at the legal and economic criteria that enable and constrain strategic choice. Preliminary insights from ongoing work deploying this cognitive lens suggest that managers and sponsors of the legal entity in charge of a new megaproject are in a bind. To get a capital investment sanctioned, they must follow a normative tradition, where ‘on time and budget’ is gold standard and ‘value for money’ is defined by an additive logic that establishes user willingness to pay for the project outcomes must outweigh the production costs. But, ex-post, for the project to progress, managers and sponsors must distribute the value to be jointly produced with essential stakeholders in ways that go above the threshold necessary to conform to the law and regulations. These insights suggest that empirical regularities are not isomorphic with bad management and/or dishonesty, but rather an outcome of the ‘rules of the game’. I call on future research to explore the incentives that lie behind strategic choices to make non-credible commitments before a capital investment is sanctioned, and post hoc, to renegotiate the value distribution towards the production of a socially valuable outcome.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Project Management","volume":"41 3","pages":"Article 102455"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42452959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Key for the increase of a city districts’ energy efficiency is the successful management of urban innovation projects. Urban innovation projects target heterogeneous innovation fields like heat supply, thermal insulation, mobility, and smart city approaches. They cover various technological and social innovations, affect almost all areas of urban life and economy, and, hence, need to involve heterogonous stakeholders. As such, urban innovation projects are more complex than many other projects, which results in difficulties of the implementation of the innovations alternatives in the local urban environment. This study focuses on the role of stakeholder involvement breadth and depth to foster the likelihood of implementation of new solutions in urban innovation projects. We ask how information processing capabilities affect the efficacy of stakeholder involvement. The empirical analysis provides evidence based on text mining of planning documents and survey data from 106 German urban innovation projects. The results reveal the benefits and challenges of stakeholder involvement and show how digital tools may help to overcome information processing obstacles.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Project Management","volume":"41 3","pages":"Article 102466"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47674431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
