• Cross-national. How is project management affected by the increasing number of international projects? How is project management affected by the increasing requirements on cross-national cooperation and coordination?
• Cross-company. How is project management affected by the increasing need for cooperation and coordination across firms?
• Cross-disciplinary. How is project management affected by the increasing requirements on knowledge integration, coordination across disciplinary boundaries and knowledge bases?

Three challenges
![Page 7: Recent evolution and future trend of project management - Prof. Soderlund](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081413/5458e3bbb1af9f40378b5326/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Challenges
• The international challenge: International mergers, international R&D,
international projects
• The organizational challenge: Outsourcing, offshoring, networks, cooperation
across organizational boundaries
• The technological challenge: Complex systems and technologies, coordination
across disciplinary boundaries, knowledge integration requirements

The international challenge
• International mergers
• International R&D
• International projects
• International mega projects

Case: Scandinavia • The export of Scandinavian countries has continued to
increase. Today export accounts for more than 50 percent of GDP.
• The share of foreign owned R&D is more than 40 percent, equally the share of foreign R&D by Scandinavian firms is steadily increasing.
• The number of people employed by foreign companies is on the rise. In some sectors the rate of change has been 300 percent during the last two decades.
• Number and importance of international mega projects are increasing. More local large-scale projects are carried out by international companies.

The organizational challenge
• Outsourcing and offshoring
• Open innovation and open projects
• Network-based organizations
![Page 16: Recent evolution and future trend of project management - Prof. Soderlund](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081413/5458e3bbb1af9f40378b5326/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Organizational fragmentation• R&D carried out by Indian companies for Western
companies have increased by 300 percent in the last 10 years.
• Co-developed projects in the pharmaceutical industry are more than 25 percent faster than in-house projects.
• Infrastructure projects in 2010 involved five times as many sub-contractors as in 1990.
• Project alliances and innovative contracting are used to reduce cost and lead-times.

Supporting observations• The increasing clockspeeds in our economy are forcing firms to launch products more
frequently.
• As a result, a larger fraction of the total work in the firm is project work. In effect, then, the business manager becomes a project manager or an overseer of project managers. The premium paid for project management skills and tools is thus likely to increase.
• Those faster clockspeeds are also forcing companies to compress their product development cycles.
• A research study at Stanford University found that industry sectors where the product clockspeed was higher tend also to have faster organizational clockspeeds.

Approach Traditional project management Adaptive project management
Project goal Getting the job done on time, on budget, and within requirements
Getting business results, meeting multiple criteria
Project plan A collection of activities that are executed as planned to meet the triple constraint
An organization and a process to achieve the expected goals and business results
Planning Plan once at project initiation Plan at outset and re-plan when needed
Managerial approach
Rigid, focused on initial plan Flexible, changing, adaptive
Project work Predictable, certain, linear, simple Unpredictable, uncertain, nonlinear, complex
Environment effect
Minimal, detached after the project is launched
Affects the project throughout its execution
Project control Identify deviations from plan, and put things back on track
Identify changes in the environment, and adjust the plans accordingly
Distinction All projects are the same Projects differ
Management style
One size fits all Adaptive approach: one size does not fit all
