Abstract

This chapter reveals the roles of Information Technology (IT) and Knowledge Management (KM) in Project Management (PM) metrics, thus explaining the theoretical and practical concepts of IT, IT capability, Information System (IS) effectiveness, KM, and PM; the measures of IT, KM, and PM metrics; and the significance of IT and KM in PM metrics. The fulfillment of IT and KM is essential for modern organizations that seek to serve suppliers and customers, increase business performance, strengthen competitiveness, and achieve constant success in global business. Therefore, it is crucial for modern organizations to explore their IT and KM applications, establish a strategic plan to routinely inspect their functional advancements, and promptly respond to the IT and KM needs of customers. The chapter argues that applying IT and KM in PM metrics has the potential to enhance organizational performance and achieve strategic goals in the social media age.
