Matching Within the project matrix, the balance between the responsibility of the project managers compared to the resource-base managers varies across different projects: -Lightweight project organization

Matching Within the project matrix, the balance between the responsibility of the project managers compared to the resource-base managers varies across different projects: -Functional project organization

Matching While utilizing knowledge as a resource is essential in SPO, and many organizations have established strategies for its acquisition and deployment, these often remain ineffective for a number of reasons: -Centralization

Matching Resources are allocated to the project structure resulting from the design by the PBFs from their resource-based. A valuable tool for doing this is the RACI chart which consists of: -C

Regions - typically major cities - where the human resources required for the delivery of projects congregate :

The allocation of human resources to project delivery organizations generates considerable tensions as project managers and resource-base managers compete for resources.

Matching While utilizing knowledge as a resource is essential in SPO, and many organizations have established strategies for its acquisition and deployment, these often remain ineffective for a number of reasons: -Time

Matching Resources are allocated to the project structure resulting from the design by the PBFs from their resource-based. A valuable tool for doing this is the RACI chart which consists of: -I

In the RACI chart, the difference between Responsible and Accountable is important. The Accountable person organizes execution of the task and leads the task execution team, while the Responsible person appoints the A-person, and ensures that the A-person delivers.

Knowledge that is fully communicable between any two or more individuals. Knowledge that can be traded internationally in the form of intellectual property, or it can be held in secret as proprietary knowledge to gain competitive advantage:

The financial resources required for project delivery come from the supplier domain but the human and technological resources required are the responsibilities of the owner domain.

The agile working methods should ease resource allocation tensions because they eliminate the problem of schedule overrun and hence the retention of resources by a particular project when they are needed on another project.

The most important resources on the project are human.

Matching While utilizing knowledge as a resource is essential in SPO, and many organizations have established strategies for its acquisition and deployment, these often remain ineffective for a number of reasons: -Incentives

Matching Within the project matrix, the balance between the responsibility of the project managers compared to the resource-base managers varies across different projects: -Autonomous project organization

Matching Resources are allocated to the project structure resulting from the design by the PBFs from their resource-based. A valuable tool for doing this is the RACI chart which consists of: -R

Matching Resources are allocated to the project structure resulting from the design by the PBFs from their resource-based. A valuable tool for doing this is the RACI chart which consists of: -A

Matching Within the project matrix, the balance between the responsibility of the project managers compared to the resource-base managers varies across different projects: -Heavyweight project organization
