Abstract

This study proposes program orientation as an organizational culture that motivates organizations to manage interrelated projects like a program without a formal structure or program team. We hold that collaboration, with cooperation and coordination as its main elements, plays a critical role in aligning interrelated projects dynamically. The empirical results support our hypotheses that program orientation indirectly affects information systems alignment with interproject cooperation, coordination, and adaptability mediating its effects. This study thus confirms the benefit of treating interrelated projects as a program, even when they are not governed by a formal program structure.

无意的计划:使IT与组织战略保持一致的项目间方向

本研究提出，计划导向作为一种组织文化，激励组织管理相互关联的项目，就像没有正式结构或计划团队的计划一样。我们认为，以合作与协调为主要内容的协作，在动态协调相关项目方面发挥着关键作用。实证结果支持我们的假设，即项目导向间接影响信息系统的一致性，项目间的合作、协调和适应性在其中起中介作用。因此，这项研究证实了将相互关联的项目视为一个规划的好处，即使它们不受正式规划结构的支配。

期刊介绍： Project Management Journal (PMJ) is the academic and research journal of the Project Management Institute and features state-of-the-art research, techniques, theories, and applications in project management. Projects represent a growing population of human activity in large, small, private, and public organizations. Projects are used to execute and sustain today's organizational activities. They play a fundamental role as the engine of tomorrow's innovation, value creation, and strategic change. However, projects often fail to deliver their promise. PMJ addresses these multiple challenges and opportunities by encouraging the development and application of novel theories, concepts, frameworks, research methods, and designs. PMJ embraces contributions both from within and beyond project management to augment and transform theory and practice.
