  In November 2008, Project Management Association Finland organized a research track as part of the Project Days (Projektipäivät) conference to bring researchers and practitioners together, to share and discuss topical research results, and to develop research topics further. The track generated new ideas and opportunities for the researchers’ work as well as inspired practitioners to adopt the latest research results and knowledge into their work.

This book is a compilation of the improved versions of the papers presented in the research track of the Project Days conference. The book reports topical research on the business and organizational aspects of projects on four major topic areas:

  • Global project business
  • Project autonomy and integration
  • Risk management
  • Contracting and control
