Paper Abstract:
|
IT project management has been studied and documented over recent decades. Topics studied tend to cover the tools,
methods and cases of technological developments and systems implementations. In spite of the advances in the knowledge
base of project management, still, high rates of failure can be found along with the unmet goals of the IT investments and
wasted resources mainly by poor management of technological innovations. The article explores what are the methods,
tools and techniques for project management that better fit the diverse and varied initiatives known as IT projects
implemented in diverse organizational contexts. In order to manage and systematically analyze the complexity of projects
and organizations, ontological frameworks are introduced, and a set of tools and techniques for project management are
associated with the different contexts. With a sample of 183 capstone projects developed in an undergraduate senior course
for IS design, the authors identified customized sets of tools and methods for project management that adapt to the
characteristics of each project. |
