Project management (PM) is vital to the survival of many organizations. Traditional PM focuses on a singlernproject at a single location (Evaristo and Fenema 1999) and is more concerned with project inputs and outputsrnthan with project process (Turner 2000). The PM paradigm has begun to change due to the increasing numberrnof distributed projects (Jonsson et al. 2001). Current and future PM will be more concerned with projectrnprocess, explicit communication, and efficient and effective information sharing among contributors. High-levelsrnof collaboration will become essential for distributed project success. This article provides the rationalernfor a collaborative PM approach, explains major components of such an approach, identifies correspondingrnfunctions that PM tools should support, and presents an analysis of some collaborative PM supportingrnsoftware. The objective is to present a collaborative PM framework and identify future trends in productrndevelopment and implementation that can serve to guide further research.
