  • Project Initiation for telemedicine services under the lens of alternative business models
    Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2013
    Co-Authors: Cynthia Lerouge, Bengisu Tulu, Allison Tuma, D L M Arango, Pamela G Forducey
    Abstract:

    This study investigates telemedicine as a collaborative technology innovation in healthcare organizations. We use the collaborative ontology [17] inspiring this mini-track to describe our instantiation of telemedicine, namely telestroke services. We discuss how the telestroke Project Initiation process is managed and how this process impacts the overall success of the telemedicine programs through the lens of three distinct telemedicine business models. We provide insights on the effects of the varying business models focusing on commonalities and differences in Project Initiation phase. We base our findings on a multi-case qualitative data set.

  • Project Initiation for Telemedicine Services
    International Journal of Healthcare Information Systems and Informatics, 2014
    Co-Authors: Cynthia M. Lerouge, Bengisu Tulu, Suzanne Wood
    Abstract:

    This study investigates Project Initiation for telemedicine, a technology innovation in healthcare organizations that manifests both intra-and inter-organizational collaboration. Moving from a telemedicine Project to a sustainable telemedicine service line can be a challenge for many organizations (LeRouge, Tulu, & Forducey, 2010). Project definition (a.k.a., Initiation) sets the strategic vision for a Project and has been categorized as the most important stage in a Project (C. Gray & Larson, 2008) and a key element for Project success (Stah-Le Cardinal & Marle, 2006). Although Project management best practices have been applied in many domains, there are few studies that link published best practices to the telemedicine domain. This study first presents a model, resulting from a review of Project management literature that specifies the recommended components Project definition. Using this model as a foundation, the authors explore how Project definition is deployed in the telemedicine domain, using the instantiation of telestroke Projects for this study. The authors base their findings on a multi-case qualitative data set, with each case representing a distinct telemedicine business model. Findings from this study explicate how the telestroke Project Initiation process is collaboratively managed and how this process impacts the overall success of the telemedicine programs through the lens of the five distinct telemedicine business models. Specifically, this study contributes insights on key elements of Project Initiation in the telemedicine context as well as the effects of the varying business models (focusing on commonalities and differences).

  • Project management in data warehouse implementations a literature review
    IEEE Access, 2020
    Co-Authors: Petar Bogojevic
    Abstract:

    Project management (PM) is a vital part of any data warehouse (DWH) implementation due to its complexity, time constraints, size, high costs, and importance to business. To help achieve efficient PM, Project managers require a source of reference that aggregates the previously acquired body of knowledge (BOK) and presents the discovered findings. Yet, no such resource currently exits. Furthermore, no evaluation of the existing BOK has been made, which obstructs its current understanding and hinders future enhancements in the field. The goal of this paper is to remove these gaps by conducting a systematic review of the literature. The review identified 33 relevant studies. Results show that the current literature mostly covers global considerations and research on DWH requirements analysis techniques and that only a small number of studies were conducted to assist Project managers. The review method incorporated two research dimensions used to synthesize, interpret and present the findings: the PMBOK ® Guide ’s PM knowledge areas (PMKAs) and DWH stage. The majority of identified studies pertained to integration management, followed by scope management PMKAs. The biggest research gap was discovered for procurement management PMKA. The Project Initiation/planning DWH stage is most frequently analyzed in existing studies, followed by requirement analysis and database design. Findings from the identified studies are incorporated into a reference map in order to serve Project managers as a reference point for additional guidance in their Projects and an agenda for further research is provided for researchers looking to contribute to the field.

  • time dependent transport network design under cost recovery
    Transportation Research Part B-methodological, 2009
    Co-Authors: Hong Kam Lo, W Y Szeto
    Abstract:

    Transport infrastructure Projects typically take place over a long time span. They will take a few years to plan and construct, and will last decades into the future. Moreover, revenue collection (from tolls) and investments in infrastructure improvement accrue over time. It is, therefore, crucial to determine the optimal Project Initiation time, phasing, scaling, toll collection strategies, and financial arrangements over the planning horizon. This paper considers the time dimension in the continuous network design problem and focuses on analyzing the aspect of cost-recovery. We develop a flexible framework under two principles of cost-recovery as a single-level optimization program, solve it through the generalized reduced gradient algorithm, and illustrate through numerical examples three considerations: namely, (i) time-dependent demands and gradual network improvements, (ii) comparison between the two cost-recovery principles, and (iii) spatial equity issues from the perspective of consumer surplus. Moreover, this study proves that Mohring and Harwitz's self-financing result for a single facility in a static framework can be extended to the time-dependent network design problem under the same set of assumptions.
