A Proposal for Research on the Application of AI/ML in ITPM: Intelligent Project Management

Project Management

PM processes are used to achieve project goals in a certain amount of time and budget by following guidelines that allow the use of knowledge and skills to be incorporated efficiently (Varajão et al., 2017). In this context, for example, the PM body of knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) prescribes a global standard for PM professionals (Project Management Institute, 2017). In this paper, the authors use the PMBOK® Guide five process groups (i.e., initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, control, and closing) to determine tasks that, in these groups, are conducive to AI/ML approaches (Varajão et al., 2017). Below, Table 1 provides a summary description of these processes (Project Management Institute, 2017).
