Resumo: |
While several studies have shown the existence of dissimilarities among diverse types of external knowledge sources, little attention has been given to identifying the project management success factors that are most suitable for each of them. Based on a quantitative exploratory approach, this study examines the relationship between Success Factors is Collaborative R&D project management and project performance, examining evidence on the dichotomy of Science-based and Market-based knowledge sources. Performance here is a multidimensional construct bringing together several dimensions: Budget, Time Schedule, Technical Quality, Patents, Publications and Overall Success Performance. The Project Management set of success factors evaluated were related to Clearly Planning the Project, Mutually Agreeing on Project Plans, Progress Monitoring and Effective Communication. To optimize performance, our findings strongly suggest the need for an R&D project management approach contingent on external knowledge source. More specifically, Clearly Defining Expectations, Objectives and Responsibilities and Jointly Agreeing on Human Resources Characteristics improve the Technical Quality of the projects with Science-based sources. In projects with Market-based sources, Discussing the Sources of Conflict, Defining Appropriation Issues and Milestones, and doing these together improve the Schedule performance. No association of performance improvement with Project Progress Monitoring was identified in projects made exclusively with Science-based sources. Success factors for Effective Communication also show some different effects on performance by knowledge sources. Informal Communication is positively and significantly correlated to the Technical Quality of the project for Science-based sources; however, Having Pre-Defined Communication Strategies is correlated to performance only for Market-based sources. These findings contribute to practice in Collaborative Project Management, identifying success factors to be emphasized, depending on the type of knowledge source involved in the project. |
