Artificial Intelligence Enabled Project Management: A Systematic Literature Review

Abstract

In the Industry 5.0 era, companies are leveraging the potential of cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence for more efficient and green human-centric production. In a similar approach, project management would benefit from artificial intelligence in order to achieve project goals by improving project performance, and consequently, reaching higher sustainable success. In this context, this paper examines the role of artificial intelligence in emerging project management through a systematic literature review; the applications of AI techniques in the project management performance domains are presented. The results show that the number of influential publications on artificial intelligence-enabled project management has increased significantly over the last decade. The findings indicate that artificial intelligence, predominantly machine learning, can be considerably useful in the management of construction and IT projects; it is notably encouraging for enhancing the planning, measurement, and uncertainty performance domains by providing promising forecasting and decision-making capabilities.

Lean Construction Strategies Supported by Artificial Intelligence Techniques for Construction Project Management—A Review

“…The study shows that, while its application is not yet widespread, AI is used to plan, schedule, and monitor projects. Similarly, in [26], the results demonstrate that ML is highly beneficial for construction PM due to its capacity to enhance planning, measurement, performance, and decision-making. In [27], it is demonstrated that AI has a positive impact on risk management, cost efficiency, and time efficiency.…”

“…This study identifies the most commonly used AI techniques to enhance PM in construction. In [26], ML is presented as a powerful tool in AI that relies on classifying and predicting information. It utilizes a range of architectures and algorithms to learn from the input data, ultimately resulting in the creation and training of a model capable of making predictions based on the analyzed and learned information.…”

A Systematic Literature Review: AI, DL and Machine Learning inCyber Risk Management

“…al. [40] looks at how artificial intelligence (AI) is being used in project management to make projects run better. It studies how AI can help with making decisions and getting better results overall.…”

“…Artificial intelligence models can pick up prejudices from the information they are trained with, which can result in unfair or discriminatory results. It is very important to address unfairness and inequality in AI systems Taboada [40]. Using AI and Big Data solutions can be difficult and need a lot of resources.…”

Reviewing and Integrating AEC Practices into Industry 6.0: Strategies for Smart and Sustainable Future-Built Environments

“…AI and ML in Construction 5.0 improve predictive maintenance and adaptive control. Intelligent algorithms that examine large data sets to make judgments are a promising research field [123]. Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) technology extends cloud computing to wireless access networks near end-users.…”
