Study goals
Organizational project management (GOP) involves methods and processes that seek to obtain competitive advantage for organizations. Applying tools to assess maturity and competence, stakeholder influence, restrictions and risks, among other aspects, can contribute to organizational effectiveness. Thus, this article aims to identify the main topics of assessment in the context of GOP.
Relevance / originality
In a brief survey, we did not observe studies that focused on this direction, but we see several studies that tend to develop specific aspects of evaluation. As organizations and projects in them can have several purposes, we understand that this study will allow new research to improve performance and develop project management.
Methodology / approach
From the Web of Science (WOS) bibliographic base, we searched for the documents published in the last decade. The steps that support the methodological process involve the collection and analysis of data, followed by the presentation and discussion of the results.
Main results
The results showed a concentration of discussions on environmental assessment in the project life cycle, and in relation to environmental and climatic risks and impacts.
Theoretical / methodological contributions
The maturity and risk assessment in project management comprises another field of research. Thus, opportunities are created for applications in other theoretical and practical research.
Social / management contributions
In another perspective, we have the evaluation of effectiveness, or models, structures and systems, or influence of stakeholders, thus allowing performance improvements in others, which benefit not only management but also society. Thus, we have more than just aspects of literary review, the possibility of practical application in project management.
