Traditionally, project management has been neglected by business schools and by default it has become the preserve of more specialised professional faculties such as engineering and architecture. By taking a broader organisational perspective and by covering a wider range of industries and professions, IJPOM will appeal to a wider readership which includes not only those with an interest in mainstream management topics but also practitioners engaged in an unlimited variety of projects.
Topics covered include
- Pre-project activities
- Project proposals/initial analysis, conception/design, management models
- Post-deployment review/documentation
- Engineering, production, service, construction projects
- Public sector programmes/campaigns, public/private sector partnerships
- Consultancy projects, public relations campaigns
- Mergers/acquisitions, outsourcing, alliances
- Particular events, humanitarian aid programmes, disasters projects
- Virtual projects, web-based PM, open-ended projects
- Communication/collaboration, negotiation skills, risk assessment/management
- Current/emerging standards, facilities/equipment support, quality assurance/testing
- Goals/objectives setting, budgeting, time/cost estimating
- HRM challenges, staffing, organisation change projects
- Opportunity management, marketing/branding strategies, measurement/metrics
