A Model for Organizational Project Management
Prof Ralf Müller, BI Norwegian Business School, PM Concepts AB, Sweden
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), organizational design and many more. This creates the
need for an integrated model that defines the content and roles in OPM.
This
presentation reports on the development and empirical test of an award winning
OPM model that organizes 22 OPM elements in seven layers that cover the
organizational hierarchy or network. Implementation patterns and their context
contingency are identified and discussed.
