Social business documents are currently one of the fastest growing content types within organizations. As carriers of important business information they require systematic management to ensure their content is available, accurate and protected over the long-term. To achieve this requires a deep understanding of their structure, nature and use. In this paper we present the findings of a preliminary study of social business documents. The aim of the study is to understand how social business documents are structured and to identify the issues and challenges that surround their management. Through an analysis of social business documents in four different systems we identify and compare their structural components from a user perspective. From this cross document/cross system analysis we develop a conceptual model for social business documents and identify issues for their long-term management. Our findings also identify the need for more in-depth modeling for which we propose methods to assist in understanding the syntactic and semantic structure of social business documents and how these change over the life of a social business document.
社会商业文档是当前组织中增长最快的内容类型之一。作为重要商业信息的载体,它们需要系统的管理,以确保其内容的可用性、准确性和长期的保护。要做到这一点,需要深入了解它们的结构、性质和用途。在本文中,我们提出了对社会企业文件的初步研究结果。本研究的目的是了解社会企业文件是如何构建的,并确定围绕其管理的问题和挑战。通过对四个不同系统的社会商业文件的分析,我们从用户的角度识别和比较了它们的结构组成。通过这种跨文件/跨系统的分析,我们开发了社会企业文件的概念模型,并确定了其长期管理的问题。我们的研究结果还表明需要更深入的建模,为此我们提出了一些方法来帮助理解社会企业文档的语法和语义结构,以及这些结构在社会企业文档的生命周期中是如何变化的。

The paper focuses on the development of the ex-post conceptual holistic framework for Project Evaluation on Strategic, Tactical and Operational Levels, the PESTOL model, by reviewing different definitions of project success and/or failure and combining the findings with the logic framework. The model reflects the project life cycle by considering all project phases, such as identification and conception. To demonstrate the relevance of the developed model, the authors applied it to a project case, the Algerian East–West Highway megaproject. The project has attracted media attention and a number of media discussions of the project have been limited to the completion of the project in a short-term perspective. In this regard, the discussions have been notably associated with delays and expenditures coming in over budget, referring to project efficiency. One reason for the media focus on these aspects alone is that they can easily be measured. The relevance of the project and its effects - whether it attains its goals and objectives measured in terms of effectiveness, including impact and sustainability - can only be verified at a later stage, after the project has delivered its results. These are much broader aspects and are therefore difficult to measure.
本文通过回顾项目成功和/或失败的不同定义,并将研究结果与逻辑框架相结合,重点研究了项目战略、战术和作战层面评估的前后概念整体框架(PESTOL模型)的发展。该模型通过考虑项目的所有阶段,如识别和概念,反映了项目的生命周期。为了证明所开发模型的相关性,作者将其应用于一个项目案例,即阿尔及利亚东西高速公路大型项目。该项目引起了媒体的关注,一些媒体对该项目的讨论仅限于短期内项目的完成。在这方面,讨论的重点是延误和超出预算的支出,即项目效率。媒体只关注这些方面的一个原因是它们很容易衡量。项目的相关性及其效果- -是否达到了以有效性(包括影响和可持续性)衡量的目标和目的- -只有在项目取得成果后的较晚阶段才能加以核实。这些是更广泛的方面,因此难以衡量。

Sustainability is one of the most important challenges of our time. Companies are integrating sustainability in their marketing, communication and their actions. Sustainability has more recently also been linked to project management. The logic behind this link is that sustainability needs change and projects are realizing change. Several studies explored how the concept of sustainability impact project management. The research project reported in this paper elaborates on these works by studying how sustainability affects project success. Project managers, logically, strive for project success and considering sustainability may influence this success. Based upon a review of relevant literature, the paper develops a conceptual model that provides a more detailed understanding of how considering different dimensions of sustainability may affect the individual criteria of project success. The study also provides a conceptual mapping of the different relationships between dimensions of sustainability and criteria of project success. This mapping shows that the most positive relationships are expected for the relationship between sustainability and the success criteria stakeholder satisfaction, future readiness and controlled project execution. The expected relationship between considering sustainability and completing the project on schedule and within budget is uncertain.
可持续发展是我们这个时代最重要的挑战之一。公司正在将可持续性融入营销、沟通和行动中。最近,可持续性也与项目管理联系在一起。这种联系背后的逻辑是,可持续性需要变革,项目正在实现变革。几项研究探讨了可持续性概念如何影响项目管理。本文报道的研究项目通过研究可持续性如何影响项目成功来阐述这些工作。从逻辑上讲,项目经理努力争取项目的成功,考虑可持续性可能会影响这种成功。在回顾相关文献的基础上,本文开发了一个概念模型,该模型更详细地了解了考虑可持续性的不同维度如何影响项目成功的个人标准。该研究还提供了可持续性维度与项目成功标准之间不同关系的概念图。这一映射表明,可持续性与成功标准——利益相关者满意度、未来准备程度和受控项目执行之间的关系预计将是最积极的关系。考虑可持续性和在预算内如期完成项目之间的预期关系是不确定的。

Lean Management is a standard production mode that has been familiar to production organizations for several decades. To date, however, academic literature has presented surprisingly little information about the application of Lean Management in Information Technology (IT) organizations, or what is called Lean IT. Drawing upon an empirical qualitative case study of the IT departments of two multinational companies, in this paper we identify change management lessons learned for Lean IT implementations, as well as seven characteristics of a corresponding change management approach. As an extension of our work, researchers should validate and expand our initial findings, preferably in a quantitative setting.
精益管理是生产组织几十年来熟悉的一种标准生产模式。然而,到目前为止,学术文献中关于精益管理在信息技术(IT)组织或所谓的精益IT中的应用的信息少得令人惊讶。根据对两家跨国公司IT部门的实证定性案例研究,在本文中,我们确定了精益IT实施的变革管理经验教训,以及相应的变更管理方法的七个特征。作为我们工作的延伸,研究人员应该验证和扩展我们的初步发现,最好是在定量的环境中。

Digitalization has been identified as one of the major trends changing society and business. Digitalization causes changes for companies due to the adoption of digital technologies in the organization or in the operation environment. This paper discusses digitalization from the viewpoint of diverse case studies carried out to collect data from several companies, and a literature study to complement the data. This paper describes the first version of the digital transformation model, derived from synthesis of these industrial cases, explaining a starting point for a systematic approach to tackle digital transformation. The model is aimed to help companies systematically handle the changes associated with digitalization. The model consists of four main steps, starting with positioning the company in digitalization and defining goals for the company, and then analyzing the company’s current state with respect to digitalization goals. Next, a roadmap for reaching the goals is defined and implemented in the company. These steps are iterative and can be repeated several times. Although company situations vary, these steps will help to systematically approach digitalization and to take the steps necessary to benefit from it.
数字化已被确定为改变社会和商业的主要趋势之一。由于组织或运营环境中采用了数字技术,数字化会给公司带来变化。本文从收集多家公司数据的不同案例研究和补充数据的文献研究的角度讨论了数字化。本文描述了数字转型模型的第一个版本,该模型是从这些行业案例的综合得出的,解释了解决数字转型的系统方法的起点。该模型旨在帮助公司系统地处理与数字化相关的变化。该模型由四个主要步骤组成,首先是在数字化中定位公司并为公司定义目标,然后分析公司在数字化目标方面的现状。接下来,在公司中定义并实施实现目标的路线图。这些步骤是迭代的,可以重复多次。尽管公司情况各不相同,但这些步骤将有助于系统地实现数字化,并采取必要措施从中受益。

Numerous contemporary problems that project managers face can be considered as unstructured decision problems, characterized by multiple actors and perspectives, incommensurable and/or conflicting objectives, and important intangibles. This work environment demands that project managers to possess not only hard skills but also soft skills with the ability to take a management perspective and, above all, develop real leadership capabilities. In this paper, is presented a family of problem structured methods for decision support, aimed at assisting project managers in tackling complex problems. Problem structured methods are a family of soft operations research methods for decision support that assist groups of diverse composition to agree on a problem focus and make commitments to consequential action. Project management programs are challenged to implement these methodologies in such a way that it is organized around the key competences that a project manager needs in order to be more effective, work efficiently as members of interdisciplinary teams and successfully execute even a small project.
项目经理面临的许多当代问题可以被认为是非结构化的决策问题,其特征是多个参与者和观点,不可通约和/或冲突的目标,以及重要的无形因素。这种工作环境要求项目经理不仅要具备硬技能,还要具备软技能,具备管理视角的能力,最重要的是,培养真正的领导能力。在本文中,提出了一系列问题结构化的决策支持方法,旨在帮助项目经理处理复杂问题。问题结构化方法是一系列用于决策支持的软运筹学方法,帮助不同组成的团队就问题焦点达成一致,并承诺采取相应的行动。项目管理程序面临的挑战是,以这样一种方式来实施这些方法,它是围绕项目经理需要的关键能力来组织的,以便更有效地工作,作为跨学科团队的成员高效地工作,甚至成功地执行一个小项目。

Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) require the right Organizational Information and Communication Technology Infrastructure (OICTI) to provide them with the essential functionalities to support their business processes. In order to have the right OICTI, MSEs are expected to make huge investments in financial and human resources, to purchase, deploy and maintain Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs). Cloud Computing Services (CCS) avail OICTI, for a fraction of the resources required to own private ICT infrastructure. The purpose of this study was to assess the fit between the MSEs’ OICTI needs and the information processing capabilities of CCS and how this fit influences CCS adoption in the Kenyan MSEs. The research was quantitative in nature, in which, a theory-based model grounded on the task technology fit, organization information processing and technology-organization-environment theories, was developed and validated. Study findings suggest strong correlations between MSEs’ tasks and CCS and between MSEs’ information processing needs and CCS information processing capabilities. Other factors identified as influencing CCS procurement are affordability and the relationship between the CCS providers and the MSEs. The study contributes to the academic literature on technology adoption in MSEs by showing that there exists a multidimensional fit between CCS and MSEs’ OICTI requirements.
微型和小型企业(mse)需要合适的组织信息和通信技术基础设施(OICTI)来为它们提供支持其业务流程的基本功能。为了获得OICTI,中小企业需要在购买、部署和维护信息通信技术(ict)方面投入大量资金和人力。云计算服务(CCS)利用OICTI,只需要拥有私有ICT基础设施所需资源的一小部分。本研究的目的是评估中小微企业的OICTI需求与CCS的信息处理能力之间的契合度,以及这种契合度如何影响肯尼亚中小微企业采用CCS。本研究为定量研究,以任务技术匹配理论、组织信息处理理论和技术-组织-环境理论为基础,建立并验证了基于理论的模型。研究发现,中小微企业的任务与CCS、信息处理需求与CCS信息处理能力之间存在较强的相关性。被确定为影响CCS采购的其他因素是可负担性以及CCS供应商与中小企业之间的关系。该研究通过表明CCS与中小微企业的OICTI需求之间存在多维度的契合,为中小微企业技术采用的学术文献做出了贡献。

Currently, internal IT organizations use outsourcing and offshore arrangements to achieve cost savings and gain access to new capabilities. It was found that suppliers’ personnel at the operational level can face challenges with internalizing their operations based on the agreed outsourcing practices and transferred responsibilities. This study gives voice to the supplier and studies the impact of offshore outsourcing operation development activities. The internal IT unit from Nokia Devices selectively outsourced global IT service activities and responsibilities to the IT supplier. The outsourced activities were implemented by offshore centers in India and China. It was found that the global selective outsourcing environment (GSOE) did not provide a solution to all of their expectations, and new unexpected challenges occurred. Several practices, communication and information sharing, and behavior-related lessons learned items were identified. It was found that the GSOE operation needs to be developed and implemented in an agile and incremental manner, instead of a singular implementation approach. Also, the globally distributed teams’ group dynamics critically impacted on the teams’ ability to work. The lessons learned items and recommendations can be utilized by other companies during their mode-of-operation development.
目前,内部IT组织使用外包和离岸安排来实现成本节约并获得新功能。研究发现,供应商在运营层面的人员在根据商定的外包做法和移交的责任将其运营内部化方面可能面临挑战。本研究为供应商发声,并研究离岸外包业务发展活动的影响。诺基亚设备的内部IT部门有选择地将全球IT服务活动和职责外包给IT供应商。外包活动由印度和中国的离岸中心实施。研究发现,全球选择性外包环境(GSOE)并没有为他们的所有期望提供解决方案,出现了新的意外挑战。确定了一些实践、沟通和信息共享以及与行为相关的经验教训项目。研究发现,GSOE操作需要以敏捷和增量的方式开发和实施,而不是单一的实施方法。此外,全球分布的团队的团队动态严重影响了团队的工作能力。吸取的经验教训和建议可供其他公司在其运营模式开发过程中使用。

Business intelligence systems (BISs) refer to a wide range of technologies and applications useful for retrieving and analyzing a large amount of information with the goal to generate knowledge useful for making effective business decision. In order to investigate adoption of BISs in companies, we propose a model based on the technology acceptance model (TAM) that is expanded by variables representing the concept of a project management maturity (PMM). The survey on the sample of USA companies has been conducted with the chief information officer (CIO) as the main informant. A structural equation model has been developed in order to test the research model. Results indicate that TAM expanded with the notion of PMM is useful in increasing understanding of BISs adoption in companies.
商业智能系统(BISs)是指用于检索和分析大量信息的广泛技术和应用程序,其目标是生成对制定有效业务决策有用的知识。为了调查企业采用bis,我们提出了一个基于技术接受模型(TAM)的模型,该模型由代表项目管理成熟度(PMM)概念的变量扩展。本调查以美国公司为样本,以首席信息官(CIO)为主要信息提供者。为了对研究模型进行检验,建立了结构方程模型。结果表明,随着PMM概念的扩展,TAM有助于增加对公司采用bis的理解。

This article examines the adoption challenges organizations encounter when they introduce enterprise collaboration systems (ECS) and the measures that can be used, i.e. actions that can be taken, to address these challenges. The aim of the article is to provide an overview of the multitude of different ECS adoption challenges and measures, and based on these, to lay the theoretical and analytical basis for studying the shaping of such complex sociotechnical systems. For this purpose, a qualitative meta-analysis of the academic literature and interviews with companies were conducted, which resulted in a collection of ECS challenges and measures classified and analyzed with regard to their specific spatiotemporal aspects. Drawing on the results of this study, research imperatives, which include the call for studying ECS over multiple time frames and settings, are presented. These will be examined in greater depth as part of our wider, multidisciplinary research program that focuses on enterprise collaboration systems use in the emerging digital workplace.
本文研究了组织在引入企业协作系统(ECS)时遇到的采用挑战,以及可以使用的措施,即可以采取的行动,以解决这些挑战。本文的目的是概述各种不同的ECS采用挑战和措施,并在此基础上为研究这种复杂的社会技术系统的形成奠定理论和分析基础。为此,对学术文献进行了定性荟萃分析,并对公司进行了采访,结果收集了ECS挑战和措施,并根据其特定的时空方面进行了分类和分析。根据这项研究的结果,提出了研究的必要性,包括在多个时间框架和环境下研究ECS的呼吁。作为我们更广泛、多学科研究计划的一部分,我们将对这些问题进行更深入的研究,该计划侧重于新兴数字工作场所中使用的企业协作系统。
