Abstract

Management of large scale distributed collaborative projects requires unified and aligned working methods and practices. Project alignment is the process to ensure that all key stakeholders share a common understanding of the project mission, goals, objectives, tactics, work processes and plans, and have the required competences and skills to perform in the project. Grounding on the recent advancements in the areas of collaborative networks, project management and Internet technologies, we have identified needs and opportunities for further development in the area of collaborative project management. We are presenting a methodology, model and a set of tools, called Project Alignment Booster, for promoting collaborative project management, introducing the concept of collaborative project alignment
