Dear research participants, colleagues and friends. Prof. Ross Chapman and I have an article in press.

Andersson, T., & Chapman, R. (2017). Project strategy for product innovation: the strategic project management framework. International Journal of Project Organisation and Management, 9(4), 328-349. DOI: 10.1504/IJPOM.2017.10009330

Abstract: This conceptual paper develops an integrated strategic project management (SPM) framework for product innovation projects by integrating relevant theoretical concepts such as business models, value proposition, resource-based view, dynamic capability theory and contingency theory. The research develops an extended framework to assist practitioners and researchers in formulating appropriate project strategies for radical front-end product innovation projects (PIPs). These strategies are aimed at optimising PIP business value creation and increasing the likelihood of commercial product innovation success. The SPM framework integrates findings in recent papers from research streams on product innovation, project management for product innovation, project strategy, project capability and project business.
Keywords: strategic project management; project business; project capability; product innovation; project strategy.

I will be posting more about strategic project management and project strategy as the strategy-as-practice data analysis progresses.

Best regards Tage Andersson
