This paper examines the international diffusion of one business practice, project management, through the prism of prior literature and data on the diffusion of ISO 9000. The study took an inductive approach, building theory through the iterative collection and analysis of quantitative and qualitative data. The findings problematise the central position accorded to the S-curve model and neo-institutional theory in explaining technology diffusion. The research posits three distinct processes driving the diffusion process: utility, institutional isomorphism, and competitive isomorphism, with the latter consisting of three primary mechanisms: competitive imitation, trendslators and fashion retailers. Contrary to prior literature, national, quasi-professional associations are found to be central to the diffusion process and play a key role in advocating and containing management technologies.

This research inquires into the value of two common ‘management technologies’, namely ISO 9001 and project management. To avoid certain methodological problems, we study the value of these micro-level practices by inductively analysing macro-level data, specifically the intensity of project management and ISO 9001 certification (termed project management score and ISO 9001 score) in different countries against national measures of wealth and innovation. There is no correlation between ISO 9001 score and innovation, while high ISO 9001 scores are correlated with decreasing levels of wealth. The project management score is positively correlated with wealth and with innovation, though very high project management scores are negatively correlated with innovation. The study includes a cluster analysis which finds that, with one exception, countries tend to adopt either project management or ISO 9001 but not both. The analysis indicates that project management is more likely to be associated with high innovation and high wealth than ISO 9001.

Today a number of studies are published on how organizational strategy is developed and how organizations contribute to local and regional development through the realization of these strategies. There are also many articles dealing with the success of a project by identifying the criteria and the factors that influence them. This article introduces the project-oriented strategic planning process that reveals how projects contribute to local and regional development and demonstrates the relationship between this approach and the regional competitiveness model as well as the KRAFT concept. There is a lot of research that focuses on sustainability in business. These studies argue that sustainability is very important to the success of a business in the future. The Project Excellence Model that analyses project success does not contain the sustainability criteria; the GPM P5 standard consists of sustainability components related either to the organizational level. To fill this gap a Project Sustainability Excellence Model (PSEM) was developed. The model was tested by interviews with managers of Hungarian for-profit and non-profit organizations. This paper introduces the PSEM and highlights the most important elements of the empirical analysis.

Are you ready for a tender project? – Analysis of organisational project management maturity in the Austrian- Hungarian border region. Since the 1990s the European Union has paid more and more attention to subsidising cross-border development. It is understandable that different funding from proposal sources is particularly important for the border area, especially to those of utmost importance that support co-operation and rural development. Therefore, they could become a driving force for development. The authors’ research analyses the organisational project management maturity of the projects implemented in the frame of the Austria-Hungary Cross-border Cooperation Programme 2007-2013 (AT-HU). Analysing this kind of organisation is an important issue, since the new call for proposals are open in 2016 and the results of this study may provide a self-evaluation opportunity to organisations that need to know if they are ready or mature enough for a new tender project. The aim of this study was twofold. First of all, those indicators that could be used to analyse the project management maturity of implementing organisations in the AT-HU programme were identified. Based on the empirical research these are the project experience accumulated by the organisation, the internal processes operating at the institution and the professional background. Secondly, factors that can affect this project management maturity were explored and we determined five influencing area: the organisational structure, culture, project managers motivation and the typical and important competences.

This project supported the planning and conduct of a two-day Iowa Department of Transportation–hosted peer exchange for state agencies that have implemented some or all of the suggested strategies outlined in the Second Strategic Highway Research Program–sponsored project R10, Project Management Strategies for Complex Projects. Presentations were made by participating states, and several opportunities were provided for directed discussion. General themes emerging from the presentations and discussions were identified as follows: To implement improvements in project management processes, agency leadership needs to decide that a new approach to project management is worth pursuing and then dedicate resources to developing a project management plan. The change to formalized project management and five-dimensional project management (5DPM) requires a culture shift in agencies from segmented “silo” processes to collaborative, cooperative processes that make communication and collaboration high priorities. Agencies need trained project managers who are empowered to execute the project management plan, as well as properly trained functional staff. Project management can be centralized or decentralized with equal effect. After an agency’s project management plan and structure are developed, software tools and other resources should be implemented to support the plan and structure. All projects will benefit from enhanced project management, but the project management plan should specify appropriate approaches for several project levels as defined by factors in addition to dollar value. Project management should be included in an agency’s project development manual.

This study analyzes the manifestation of the dimensions of Entrepreneurial Orientation (EO) and Project Management Systems (PMS). We used a qualitative approach to conduct exploratory research through a study in literature and a pilot case in a software company. Data was collected from semi structured interviews, documents, and records on file, then triangulated and treated with content analysis. The model proposed for the relationship between the types of PMS (ad hoc, Classic PM, innovation, entrepreneurship/intrapreneurship) and the dimensions of EO (innovativeness, risk-taking, proactiveness, competitive aggressiveness, and autonomy), was partially corroborated by empirical studies. New studies are suggested to validate the applicability and setup of the model.

En els últims anys hi ha hagut un interès creixent per la disciplina de Gestió de Projectes. Durant un temps els projectes eren gestionats per gerents que tenien coneixements tècnics previs sobre un problema a resoldre. Però l’elevat índex de fracàs en aquest tipus de gestió porta canvis en la manera de dirigir els projectes. Es comença a reconèixer la gestió de projectes com una habilitat especifica i sorgeix el concepte de Oficina de Gestió de Projectes, com a òrgan responsable dels processos de gestió de projectes. L’objectiu fonamental d’aquest document és donar les pautes per implementar una Oficina de Gestió de Projectes i establir una metodologia de projecte basada en el manual de bones pràctiques PMBOK per una organització TIC, per tal de normalitzar els projectes TIC i facilitar-ne el seguiment, control i visió global.

Os projetos são atualmente parte indispensável das organizações. O campo de gerenciamento de projetos vem ganhando importância e as organizações buscam meios de garantir que seus projetos sejam mais eficazes e eficientes gerando retorno. Dentro deste contexto, o escritório de projetos surge como um meio de alavancar a gestão de projetos dentro das organizações. Na administração pública os escritórios ainda são vistos como um caminho para fazer a transição de um modelo de gestão voltado para processos para outro voltado para resultados. A literatura destaca suas inúmeras qualidades, entretanto estudos mostram que as pessoas ainda não tem clareza do valor gerado pelos escritórios. Desta forma, esta pesquisa buscou verificar quais são os benefícios percebidos de escritórios de gerenciamento de projetos da administração pública e também qual a sua aceitação dentro da organização. A pesquisa foi conduzida através de um estudo de casos múltiplos onde as entrevistas realizadas foram tratadas por meio de uma análise de conteúdo estruturalista que resultou numa estrutura que relaciona os benefícios dos escritórios de projetos a sua aceitação. A estrutura mostra como fatores organizacionais levam a uma resistência e baixa aceitação ao escritório de projetos e as suas funções. Ao mesmo tempo, as funções geram os benefícios que são responsáveis por legitimar os escritórios e aumentar a sua aceitação. O cenário colocado é fundamental para compreender o tempo necessário para que o escritório possa agregar valor à organização.
