“…Although the organization specific PMMs reviewed differ; many have some commonality in terms of its processes, procedures, tools and deliverables. In concluding this study, these commonalities have been compiled and combined with the literature investigations and earlier studies (Chin & Spowage 2008a, 2008b and the reviewed PMM discussed above:…”

“…Based on the literature discussed above and the research work (Chin & Spowage 2008a, 2010, Spowage & Chin 2009 done by the engineering management group at the University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus, we have defined a PMM as "a comprehensive set of best practices, tools and techniques that are dynamic, flexible, adaptive and customizable to suit different projects within a specific environment". The methodology should therefore consist of a set of processes, templates, techniques and tools to assist in planning and managing the project throughout its entire life cycle.…”

Across all industrial sectors, project management has become an essential element in the successful delivery of projects. Regardless of the industrial sector or size of project, project management methodologies (PMM) can be applied to improve the probability of meeting the project goals. In an earlier published work, we had classified PMM in five distinct but interdependent levels. In this paper, our objective is to further extend the discussion on the characteristics of L3 methodologies by comparing the PMM currently being applied in three distinct sectors: (1) academic institutions; (2) industry organizations and (3) government linked organizations. Each of the PMM across the three sectors will be compared and discussed against a list of elements to elicit a common set of requirements.

“…The foundation of the PMM is based on the work completed in Phase 1, shown in Figure 1 and by leveraging on previous work which used similar methods to develop PMM for the management of project in the undergraduate (CHIN;SPOWAGE, 2008) and doctoral research environments (CHIN et al, 2011), an appropriate PMM was developed as outlined in Figure 1.…”

This study investigates the development of a project management methodology (PMM) to be adopted in a university-industry collaborative (UIC) research environment through semi-structured interviews with project leaders from both universities and industries. This paper presents the findings of a qualitative survey conducted with respondents from the universities and industries involved in collaborative R&D projects in Malaysia. These findings together with those of previous works were used to design an appropriate PMM. The validity of the PMM was assessed by a panel of experts including recognized leaders in the field. The novelty of this survey research is in the creation of a PMM guidebook that offers guidance to the actors involved, assisting them to plan, manage and close their projects successfully.

“…Chin, A.C. Spowage, E.H. Yap and C.W. Lee studied the planning and management processes of research projects among doctoral students [2]. Scientists have found that doctoral students are not sufficiently aware of the proper use of project management methodologies, as a result of which there is a need to update the organizational framework.…”

The relevance of the research is determined by the need to update the management structure of scientific projects within higher educational institutions in accordance with modern economic realities and internationally recognized standards, the essence of which is the transition from a rigid hierarchical management system and orientation towards the commercialization of the results of scientific and technological activities. Therefore, the purpose of this scientific article is to develop a functional model for scientific project management within higher education, the components of which, unlike existing models, will be characterized by a project-oriented direction. To achieve a certain research goal, general scientific research methods were used, including analysis, synthesis, generalization, comparison, systematization, modeling, as well as structural and mathematical methods, taking into account the key principles of structural-functional and system approaches. The article analyzes a number of scientific works of Ukrainian and foreign scientists on the topic of methodological substantiation of the specifics of management of research projects in higher educational institutions. The key concerns of the current state of scientific project management within the Ukrainian scientific space have been identified, in particular, the rigid organizational and staff management structure with the predominant role of the top management, insufficient financial support of scientific and technical activities, as well as limited access to the results of scientific and technical activities. The author’s economic and mathematical model of scientific project management in higher education institutions has been developed considering functional indicators. It is proposed to introduce a body for commercialization of the results of scientific and technical activities, which will help optimize the financial support of scientific and technical activities. The necessity of developing international cooperation within the framework of scientific and technical activities and the organization of scientific projects in particular is substantiated. The practical value of scientific work lies in the development of the author’s own methodological support for the proper functioning of scientific project management with the prospect of its further application in practice
