Project Based Firms Conduct Multiple Business Projects

Abstract

Shaifali Garg*

Multi-project management is typically regarded as an intra-organizational process of putting strategies into action through change and development project lines, portfolios, or programs. Between project-based businesses and other participants in project networks, inter-organizational multi-project management takes place. In inter-organizational contexts, multi-project aspects significantly increase management complexity, but their specific requirements are poorly understood. The nature and requirements of inter-organizational multi-project management in project-based businesses are examined in this article. As an extension to the predominant intra-organizational research, parallel and sequential inter-organizational multiproject settings are proposed. Stakeholder and agency theories, prior portfolio and program management research knowledge, and an inductive analysis of existing literature are used to construct a thematic framework.
