Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the alignment between product design and the supply chain and to identify how this alignment impacts on a firm's supply chain responsiveness and resilience. Design/methodology/approach – An i... Read More about Aligning product design with supply chain: a case study.

Managing the social trajectory: a practice perspective on project management (2012)
Journal Article
O'Leary, T., & Williams, T. (2013). Managing the social trajectory: a practice perspective on project management. IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management, 60(3), 566-580. https://doi.org/10.1109/tem.2012.2228206

This paper responds to recent calls to extend the theoretical perspectives taken on the important organizational activity of managing projects, based on a deeper understanding of the reality of their day-to-day social practice. Drawing on theoretical... Read More about Managing the social trajectory: a practice perspective on project management.

A problem structuring method for ecosystem-based management : the DPSIR modelling process (2012)
Journal Article
Gregory, A. J., Atkins, J. P., Burdon, D., & Elliott, M. (2018). A problem structuring method for ecosystem-based management : the DPSIR modelling process. European journal of operational research, 227(3), 558-569. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejor.2012.11.020

The purpose of this paper is to learn from Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS) theory to inform the development of Problem Structuring Methods (PSMs) both in general and in the specific context of marine management. The focus on marine management is impor... Read More about A problem structuring method for ecosystem-based management : the DPSIR modelling process.

A multidimensional analysis of project manager competences (2012)
Journal Article
Chipulu, M., Neoh, J. G., Ojiako, U., & Williams, T. (2012). A multidimensional analysis of project manager competences. IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management, 60(3), 506-517. https://doi.org/10.1109/TEM.2012.2215330

Projects are important to industry. Project manager (PM) competences are important in project success. Yet, current competence studies largely rely on small-sample, homogenous PM surveys which could suffer from uncontrollable biases and may not be ge...

Identifying and acting on early warning signs in complex projects (2012)
Journal Article
Williams, T., Jonny Klakegg, O., Walker, D. H., Andersen, B., & Morten Magnussen, O. (2012). Identifying and acting on early warning signs in complex projects. Project management journal, 43(2), 37-53. https://doi.org/10.1002/pmj.21259

We consider identification of early warning signs (EWS) in projects. Project professionals are not good at detecting or acting on EWS. Barriers that lead to this are identified. The nature of EWS and their detection change with the evolving situation... Read More about Identifying and acting on early warning signs in complex projects.
