*SIG ITProjMgmt (SPECIAL INTEREST GROUP IN IT Project Management)*

In today’s highly competitive marketplace, organizations continue to look
for ways to make the most of their projects. Information technology (IT)
projects specifically continue to face challenges related to uncertainty
and changing technology. IT projects have become notorious for high failure
rates, significant cost and/or budget overruns. Both research and anecdotal
evidence suggest that many IT projects struggle to meet functionality and
quality targets. Research has identified multiple reasons for these
challenges in IT projects, such as: project escalation, poor risk
management, failure to manage user expectations, poor software development
or project management processes, inability to learn from past mistakes and
successes, or even challenges related to virtual projects. The insights
gained from research in this area are often highly relevant to practice and
can offer new contributions to existing theory. As a research community,
there is still much to be learned and discussed about improving success
rates for IT projects. This track welcomes papers that address a diverse
range of topics related to IT project management.

There are two mini tracks (and chairs). See

*General Topics in IT Project Management *
The Minitrack will feature papers and panel(s) that focus on problems that

not limited to, the following topics:

   - Theories used in project management

*Emerging Technologies and Project Management *
Emerging technologies such as the internet of things (IoT), sensor
networks, artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML), and big data
analytics yield a wide range of new applications and project management
research issues. These relatively recent technological innovations bring
many challenges and also often affect economic interests. Some of these
challenges can severely undermine the various resources of organizations.
Understanding the full potential of these technological innovations and
trends requires that we produce technical solutions and address
corresponding changes in the way we manage them. This means that various IT
project stakeholders’ work tasks and skills will need to be further
understood.

Furthermore, these issues are also a relevant concern for IT leaders
(Kappelman, L. et al., 2018). Policies and frameworks related to these
trends are critically important for organizations. A greater understanding
of these emerging technological trends is required to address the various
organizational and socio-political threats (Tripathi & Khazanchi, 2018).
