Abstract:

Currently, a role for a creative or visually appealing interior designer has also includes project management. One of the project's primary roles is for the interior design manager is to successfully deliver to the client. Additionally, project managers are measured for their capability to deal with day-to-to-day activities as well as projects. This study shares the required competencies project managers and interior designers to qualify as a project manager in the field of design. This paper examines the 27 competencies required of an interior project manager and highlights the value of competence in these three areas: functional, contextual, and behavioral. Competence as a project manager is assessed using questionnaires. The review and data collection of the results later helps support competency skills, which then diminishes the value of competency activities. From the analysis of the results, it follows that the project validity of the manager's knowledge increases project efficiency. Following the findings, new guidelines are implemented to further and more generally define the nature of the research.Keywords: interior design practice, project management competency

Abstract:

This study aims to identify the primary aspects contributing to the project’s successful implementation by considering project risk management as a mediating component. The paper uses the survey methodology to examine the impact of project management processes (project start-up, planning, execution, monitoring and control, and closing the project) on successful project implementation by the arts of project risk management as a mediating variable. The study population consists of project managers employed by the Jordan Engineers Association, Jordan Construction Contractors Association, and King Abdullah Design and Development Bureau in Jordan, with a sample size of 96 project managers. A questionnaire was divided into three categories. The primary data were analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (3.3.3) software. The result shows that the arts of project risk management mediate the impact of project start-up, planning, execution, monitoring and control, closing, and management processes on successful project implementation. The findings recommend that integrated project management processes with project risk management could enhance the chances of successful project implementation for Jordanian project managers.

Abstract:

Bolsa Chica Wetlands is one of a few recently restored large wetlands in Southern California of the United States. The project required restoration of tidal flooding of some isolated wetlands while minimizing impacts to the shoreline adjacent to the new inlet and maintenance costs, preserving endangered species on site, and maintaining oil field operations along the periphery of the project. The project created a direct connection to the ocean through wetland basins that included a full tidal basin, muted tidal basins and seasonal ponds linked by a series of ocean jetties, levees, water control structures, culverts, and channels. The inlet is a key project feature and has been the focus of numerous technical studies and numerical modeling tasks. As part of theses analyses, a pre-filled ebb bar was designed and about 1 million cubic yards of clean sand from the lowlands dredging was placed offshore to minimize the anticipated impacts of the inlet opening to the shoreline. This paper presents the inlet location selection, inlet and wetland hydrodynamics, inlet dimension optimization, inlet stability analyses, and jettied inlet entrance design. It also discusses findings of comparison between model predictions and field measurements of tidal elevations and sediment accumulations in the wetland basin since the completion of the project in August 2006. This project received the first Project Excellence Award from COPRI (Coasts, Oceans, Ports and Rivers Institute) of the American Society of Civil Engineers in 2008.

Abstract:

This paper describes the importance of design thinking in project management. Design thinking is critical in guiding managers to deliver elaborate projects. The paper reviews literature on project failure and its reasons, knowledge of project management and illustrate how design thinking can help. Through project formulation, design, implementation, execution and monitoring stages, project managers must think beyond project complexities-they must consider environmental enablers so as to deliver successful projects. Project externalities influence the successful implementation of projects. The need for managers to think critically on their projects design and implementation is discussed later in the paper. The paper concludes by stating that knowledge on project management must be rebuilt through design thinking. This would enhance better project execution and reduce project failures.

Abstract:

While there are many project management tools and software packages available, these are not widely used in the design curriculum at colleges and universities. This may reflect some of the differences between conventional projects and design activities. In particular, the open-ended nature of design activities and the need to clarify the client's intention may lead to the conclusion that conventional project management tools are only useful for the most routine activities in the design process. It is suggested that there is a market for a new set of tools for teaching the management of design. These tools should incorporate the most useful of the current management tools and integrate them with some of the requirements of effective design, including support for clarification of objectives, functional analysis, and generation and evaluation of alternatives.

Abstract:

Purpose Although prior studies have noted the importance of trust for project performance, research remains scant on describing the role of trust when using lean design management (LDM) in projects. The purpose of this paper is to explore the connection between LDM and interpersonal trust in solving construction projects’ design management problems. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative study was conducted that included 29 trust- and LDM-themed semi-structured interviews in the USA (California), Brazil and Finland; 11 focus group discussions were also organized to validate the interview findings. Findings The study reveals how LDM contributes to solving design management problems through two distinct but interconnected mechanisms: improved information flow; and improved trust among project team members. A conceptual framework was crafted to illustrate the mechanisms in building trust by means of the social domain of LDM concepts. Research limitations/implications The conceptual framework requires testing through an international survey or through multiple case studies. Practical implications The results indicate that design management would benefit from trustful environments and that trust may be the catalyst for actors’ engagement with LDM. Managers in charge of design within projects can use the conceptual framework when selecting the appropriate LDM tools, which should include both the social and technical domains. Originality/value The study emphasizes the importance of the social domain of LDM concepts. Previous studies have focussed on information flow aspects of LDM but have overlooked the value of interpersonal trust in solving design management problems.

Abstract:

The idea of artful rainwater design is based on the premise that new stormwater management techniques focusing on non-point source pollution, water balance, and small-storm hydrology can be used to create projects resulting in greater user satisfaction and perceived value. Examination of exemplary artful rainwater designs can provide engaging and useful information to guide designers in their own artful rainwater designs. This article is grounded in case studies of selected artful rainwater designs and offers two concepts to the existing body of stormwater management design knowledge by drawing attention to the valuable project attributes common to artful rainwater design projects, and by clarifying specific project approaches that can enhance the value of stormwater management systems. The article includes specific project examples to illustrate these project attributes and design possibilities. The article concludes by discussing some of the opportunities and challenges faced by those advancing artful rainwater designs.

Abstract:

Available literature points out that the complexities of projects have often led to project failure. Insufficient project management standards have led to project uncertainties. The management of project uncertainty lies with the project manager. There is little evidence on empirical literature that is focused on project management and their uncertainty. This paper investigates the practices used by project managers to address project uncertainty and to critically analyze the success of these methods in complex projects by use of design thinking approach in the implementation of projects. The findings of address challenges and concerns facing project managers in managing projects in uncertain environments. This paper will give guide on project design, management and uncertainty .It will further contribute to the theory on uncertainty on project management.

Abstract:

To increase the interest in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) among high school students, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) created the “High Schools United with NASA to Create Hardware” (HUNCH) program. To enhance the experience of the students, NASA sponsored two additional projects that require universities to design and implement educational modules to be delivered over two (fall and spring) semesters to the six high schools in the area of project management. These modules exposed the students to project management concepts and tools that can be applied in their HUNCH projects. The benefits of the project management modules are: 1) acquiring knowledge in project management, 2) timely, cost- effective execution of the HUNCH projects, and most important, 3) increased student interest in STEM. This article discusses the details of Texas A&M University’s design and implementation of the project management modules. The faculty members involved in the sponsored research projects designed and taught the educational modules. The educational modules were reviewed by the Project Management Institute-Clear Lake (PMI-CL) to ensure consistency with PMI’s project management standards. Texas A&M University partnered with three high schools during this project. Undergraduate students at Texas A&M University who were enrolled in a project management course using project management techniques to complete their capstone design projects mentored the high school students. The interactions between the undergraduate and high school students proved beneficial to both parties. Pre- and post- tests in project management were designed and conducted in each high school. The data are used to analyze the effectiveness of student learning.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify issues in the long-term development of project workers, their career paths, their contribution to organizational success and their need for equity of opportunity. The long-term development of project workers, their career paths and their contribution to organizational success is explored. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative research design using semi-structured interviews was employed to gain an understanding of social and human issues related to careers in project management (PM). By researching the lived experiences and feelings of those pursuing a career in PM the aim was to gain insight into the career journeys and experiences of practicing project managers. Findings Those who choose to pursue a career in PM have the personal characteristics and sufficiently high levels of self-efficacy to deal effectively with the uncertainty inherent in the nature of projects and of project-based employment. Research limitations/implications Participants were drawn from current project practitioners. As a result, the views of those who have worked on projects and chosen not to continue their career in the area have not been gathered. Practical implications Predictions are that there will be a continuing demand for project managers with the capabilities required to deliver successful projects. The challenge for organizations is to create an environment that will encourage greater numbers of people to embrace the uncertainty of project. The findings reported provide insight into how organizations might attract, develop and retain the project expertise they require for success. Originality/value This research provides further understanding into the lived experience of project managers, with a focus on those who have unexpectedly found themselves pursuing a career in PM.

Abstract:

Design Thinking has the potential to train the soft skills of preservice teachers who will need to continuously design their future towards sustainable education. However, Design Thinking is intrinsically complex, and managing its learning and projects with large groups is not straightforward, especially in remote situations such as COVID-19. From collaborative work among disciplines, this study introduces a Design Thinking-based board to improve the implementation and management of remote design projects. This board was applied with university-level preservice teachers who worked in teams to design instructional materials for preschool. We assessed the perception of the usefulness of the board by the preservice teachers and the teachers responsible for their training, using mixed methods in two consecutive courses. The board was perceived as helpful in developing design projects and improving collaborative learning. It was beneficial for the management, monitoring, and communication, enriching the project process and outcomes. From the achieved learning, we provide guidelines for designing and using these boards to aid educators and researchers in integrating Design Thinking and developing practical and sustainable solutions. This study contributes to the natural integration of Design Thinking and technology in preservice teachers’ education with a replicable and flexible process, improving the quality of education for future generations.

Abstract:

The contemporary discourse on organizational project management (OPM) complements project, program, and portfolio management with emerging elements, such as governance, projectification, the project management office (PMO), and organizational design. This creates the need for an integrated model that defines the content and roles in OPM. This article addresses this by conceptually developing a seven-layered model that organizes 22 OPM elements, ranging from the corporate level to the management of individual projects. A theory is developed to explain the interaction of the elements and the layers within the model.

Abstract:

The paramount importance of project portfolios for business drives managers to search for highly efficient support tools to overcome complex challenges of their management. A major tradeoff is to acquire tools able to produce a convenient portfolio project prioritization process, on which business investments are decided. However, by using existing Project Portfolio Management Systems (PPMS), many concurrent projects in a portfolio are usually prioritized and planned in the upstream life-cycle phases according to financial criteria, and overlooking the portfolio alignment to enterprise strategies and the availability of resources, although their importance. In this paper, we propose a conceptual formalization of PPMS with respect to a double portfolio prioritization process that performs two levels of selections according to both: i.) Strategy alignment, including returns on investment, size, and total cost; and ii.) Execution capability, as the organization should be able to manage and deliver the selected projects' outcomes. The advantage of our PPMS framework is twofold. First, it is useful to be customized by designers to fit organization needs. Second it is built with respect to the double prioritization phase process, as an end-to-end process that guarantees optimal portfolios generation. Further, the proposed PPMS system and its identified functionalities are validated through an implementation of a prototype tool.

This paper focuses on the possibility of linking Project Management and Facility Management that would result in an operationally efficient design of a development project. Project management tools are used during a construction project when an investment plan is implemented from the idea all the way until it is put into operation. Adding facility management to a construction project leads to a new insight into the project development which works with suggestions of the future operator of the facility from the very first considerations of the investment. The paper aims to highlight the benefits that a project would gain by integrating there two management areas.

Abstract:

Lightning protection is becoming more and more important because the climate has changed in recent years and lightning occurs frequently. Given the lightning accidents in these years, this study adopted a new lightning protection device, increased deployment of lightning arresters, solved the problem that the lightning arresters cannot automatically exit the original lightning protection system after penetration. By optimizing the design of the lightning protection system, this study increased the system, reduced the occurrence and damage of lightning accidents. Statistics about the application of the system in an oil production plant show that the system has improved the plant’s economic gains. The investment decisionmaking, budget control, phased evaluation and calculation of the innovative project of the lightning protection system have been analyzed in depth. The engineering cost of each item, including the innovative techniques and the application of lightning protection systems, in the project was calculated separately, which improved the cost management of the innovative project.

Abstract:

Program management is the process of managing several related projects, often with the intention of improving an organization's performance. In practice and in its aims it is often closely related to systems engineering and industrial engineering. The Program Manager has oversight of the purpose and status of all projects in a Program and can use this oversight to support project-level activity to ensure the overall program goals are likely to be met, possibly by providing a decision-making capacity that cannot be achieved at project level or by providing the Project Manager with a program perspective when required, or as a sounding board for ideas and approaches to solving project issues that have program impacts. Typically in a program there is a need to identify and manage cross-project dependencies and often the PMO (Program or Project Management Office) may not have sufficient insight of the risk, issues, requirements, design or solution to be able to usefully manage these. The Program manager may be well placed to provide this insight by actively seeking out such information from the Project Managers although in large and/or complex projects, a specific role may be required. However this insight arises, the Program Manager needs this in order to be comfortable that the overall program goals are achievable.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the vulnerability of projects implemented in enterprises. The paper focuses on the issue of vulnerability assessment in the planning stages of a project, before its realization. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, the realization of the project has been analyzed through the phases of delivery, and the fuzzy approach has been deployed for mathematical modeling of uncertainties. An appropriate expert and management team has assessed the variables of the project’s vulnerability by using linguistic expressions, as this way of assessment is close to the human way of thinking. The model of project’s vulnerability assessment has been verified on real life data by means of an illustrative example. Findings A very significant part of business operations in enterprises all over the world is realized through the practice of project management. In daily business practice, project activities may be exposed to different risk sources. These risks may be studied from different perspectives, but without reevaluation, risk sources increase the vulnerability of projects as well as of the whole enterprise. Originality/value The results of the analysis of the obtained data gives good direction to future research in the scope of vulnerability management in the enterprises oriented to long-term sustainability.

Abstract:

Purpose Design management plays a significant role in value creation in a construction project. Within the last few decades, new design tools such as building information model have been introduced, which supposedly enhance design productivity and quality. However, no such revolution of design quality has emerged. Therefore, more research on how design management affects the quality of construction project is needed. The purpose of this paper is to better understand the connection between design management procedures and quality. Design/methodology/approach This is a case study with a mixed-method approach. The data collection strategies used are quantitative user satisfaction survey and qualitative analysis over the documentation of the case project. Findings A deductive analysis was conducted to four suggested indicators of beneficial collaboration. An explanation was found for how the quality of the project outcome can be forecasted from the management style and procedures. Research limitations/implications The research was conducted as single case study, and therefore, greater data would enable further development of the indicators. Practical implications The indicators have wide range of applicability: the clients can forecast the quality performance by evaluating the management procedures already during the project instead of waiting until the end of project. The indicator system also provides societal impact as it guides the clients to use the kind of managerial practices that improve the ability to create value in projects that are difficult to evaluate in money terms. Originality/value The research provides a novel way to gain a holistic view with analytical indicator tools. The research contributes to lean design management literature by providing insight to the underlying mechanism of beneficial collaboration.

Abstract:

Hydropower, as a renewable energy resource, has become an important way to fit for Chinese long-term energy policy of energy transformation. Engineering–procurement–construction (EPC) has been increasingly adopted for improving hydropower project delivery efficiency in the utilization of water resources and generation of clean energy, where design plays a critical role in project success. Existing studies advocate the need to use partnering for better solutions to designs in EPC hydropower projects. However, there is a lack of a theoretical framework to systematically address design-related issues considering different participants’ interactions. This study coherently examined the causal relationships among partnering, design management, design capability, and EPC hydropower project performance by establishing and validating a conceptual model, with the support of data collected from a large-scale EPC hydropower project. Path analysis reveals that partnering can directly promote design management and design capability and exert an effect on design capability through enhancing design management, thereby achieving better hydropower project outcomes. This study’s contribution lies in that it theoretically builds the links between intra- and inter-organizational design-related activities by systematically mapping EPC hydropower project performance on partnering, design management, and design capability. These findings also suggest broad practical strategies for participants to optimally integrate their complementary resources into designs to achieve superior hydropower project performance.

Abstract:

Designing modern waste recycling systems is an urgent problem. The experience of attracting masters from two leading Russian universities in organizing interaction and cooperation in the development and implementation of waste sorting complexes is considered. Faculties of Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration and Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology held a project session for developing and launching innovative technological projects on the market called "Techno marketing". The developed methodological base made it possible to combine educational and entrepreneurial tasks and ensure the promotion of student technological projects. As a result of the conducted project session, a project on the use of computer vision systems for sorting waste was developed, the competitive differences of the project and its technical and economic indicators were presented. The mechanisms for the implementation of an innovative waste sorting project have been determined. Despite being twice as expensive, the waste sorting machine is able to fully pay off 3 times faster than manual sorting, justifying further investment in the project.

Abstract:

The economic growth in Southeast Asia has a number of benefits for downstream industries including jig and fixture fabricators. Jig and fixture fabricators are categorized as small and medium industries that operate based on job-shop manufacturing concept. Meantime, jig and fixture projects are characterized by the unique nature of unforeseeable demand and customized design with multiple objectives. Hence, managing jig and fixture projects is eventually not an easy task. In line with this, this paper aims to develop an objective driven framework that is applicable to jig and fixture industries in Southeast Asia. Thus, the paper reviews various objectives and success factors for jig and fixture projects. The paper subsequently proposes a jig and fixture project management framework based on an objective-oriented project planning and management theory, namely Logical Framework Approach (LFA). The proposed framework is developed based on the concept that generalizations of jig and fixture projects objectives are infeasible. As such, the proposed framework treats projects objective individually. The uniqueness of the proposed framework is the multiple cross links that exist between project management success factors and project objectives. Intrinsically, the proposed framework presents a clearer picture on important factors that contribute towards the success of achieving each projects objective. The proposed framework has descriptive value in terms of studying, classifying and defining the relationships that govern jig and fixture project activities and project objectives.

Abstract:

This review paper has been prepared to provide an overview of multidisciplinary research that combines recent findings in the fields that support digital transformation development. The potential impact of digital technologies on organizational performance is the leverage that enables changes in common elements of organizational design; such are strategy, structure, processes, or workforce. According to reports by various authors, choosing an approach to digital transformation potentially includes an emphasis on strategy, processes, a structural approach, a project approach, and other performances. Such transformation is often performed through a portfolio of interrelated projects that change the organization. Most contemporary organizations establish a project management office (PMO) as an organizational entity responsible for implementing digital transformation initiatives. In this article, PMO is highlighted as an element of organizational design that promises success in meeting the demands of digital transformation initiatives, such as digital agility or innovation project management, by introducing new digital competencies into its professional domains. Such extensions of PMO domain expertise may lead to the transformation of “traditional” PMOs into digital PMOs. The paper analyses the cases of application of structural elements of digital PMO and their characteristics in three Croatian companies.

Abstract:

This paper describes the method of project risk analysis based on design thinking and explores the possibility of its application for industrial investment projects. Traditional and suggested approaches to project risk management have been compared. Several risk analysis artifacts have been added to the standard list of artifacts. An iterative procedure for the formation of risk analysis artifacts has been developed, with the purpose of integrating the risk management process into strategic and prompt decision-making during project management. A list of tools at each stage of design thinking for risk management within the framework of real investment projects has been proposed. The suggested technology helps to determine project objectives and content and adapt them in regards to possible; as well as to implement measures aimed at reducing these risks, to increase productivity of the existing risk assessment and risk management tools, to organize effective cooperation between project team members, and to promote accumulation of knowledge about the project during its development and implementation.The authors declare no conflict of interest.

Abstract:

Good project management is a crucial factor for the smooth implementation of projects in an application development organization. Management activities carried out manually have the potential to result in errors in data processing, and it is difficult to monitor project progress, which often results in time and financial losses. This research was conducted to overcome this problem by building a project management system based on the Scrum method using the Laravel framework and applying a multiple linear regression algorithm in estimating time for each project activity with parameters of the number of people involved and the type of work, as well as competency mapping on the recommendations in the human resource allocations. The Scrum method is used because of its flexibility and fast adaptability to the system development process. The result of this research is a software development project management system that helps organizations in allocating human resources and time management. The resulting multiple linear regression model obtains a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 349.97. Descriptive analysis conducted on user responses stated that user responses were positive towards the use of the project management system.

Abstract:

Project Risk management is known as an important workout for the achievement of desired objectives for the construction projects. Success in construction project is quantified by attaining its enactment in terms of project quality, project cost, project time, project safety. Construction projects in Pakistan, typically in the whole world have a high risk of being pointedly late and over budget. However, a bit of schedule and cost related risks are unavoidable in any construction project around the world. It was found out that the engineers were generally nominated earlier the design phase of any project. Due to this reason maximum projects did not get the advantage from SMEs at the planning stage of the project. This study also supports that project managers who are engineers be involved in construction projects site selection, in preliminary budget and schedule development by using good Engineering Management Practices.

Abstract:

The construction quality and efficiency of construction engineering are directly related to people’s daily life. Therefore, construction enterprises must keep pace with the times and actively introduce advanced technical means into architectural design, project construction, and management, so as to ensure the quality and safety of construction to the maximum extent. The application of BIM not only improves the efficiency of construction and construction quality, but also realizes the control of construction cost. This study explores and analyzes the advantages of BIM as well as proposes application strategies of BIM in architectural design, project construction, and management, hoping to contribute to the smooth construction of construction engineering.

Abstract:

The article presents an BIM implementation analysis in a context of Project management in the construction. Most efficient construction management process could be designed on most of PM branches, such as Project Supply Management, quality management in the project, Project Cost and Cost Management, Project Timing Management. The article presents the impact of GOST R 54869―201 “PROJECT MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS” on one of the most complicated environments, including BIM in construction. In Russia, much is said about supporting construction site project management; there are federal and regional programs of implementing BIM. There is also an understanding of what kind of construction design projects it is and why it is needed. There are many definitions of BIM design project detail level. Each region country has its own limitations and conditions for implementing BIM for construction project management. Another important aspect of implementing BIM opportunities in the regions is their isolation in the presented region and development will cause demand for local investments.
