The development teams who are geographically spread, culturally mixed and mainly depend on information and communication technology (ICT) for communication is defined as a global virtual teams (GVTs). Despite the advancement of technologies, achieving the efficient performance of GVTs remains a challenge. The reviewed literature has highlighted the importance of training and development, organi...

The paper reviews the literature in the field of performance measurement and management (PMM) for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and it proposes a framework for PMM system design. The results of the literature review carried out reveal the need for developing real integrated PMM frameworks. Based on such a structured literature review, we propose an integrated framework that rectifies the ...

In recent years, performance measurement and management (PMM) has received much attention from researchers and practitioners. Despite the growing use of PMM systems, different problems cause companies to experience difficulty in implementing such systems, with consequent risk of partial benefits or total goal failure. The literature on PMM is nowadays quite vast, but only a ten of models addres...

We explore generalizations of the pari-mutuel model (PMM), a formalization of an intuitive way of assessing an upper probability from a precise one. We discuss a naive extension of the PMM considered in insurance, compare the PMM with a related model, the Total Variation Model, and generalize the natural extension of the PMM introduced by P. Walley and other pertained formulae. The results are ...

This paper uses a case study of a multi-disciplinary colorectal cancer team in health care to explain how a model of performance measures can lead to debate and action in Soft System Methodology (SSM). This study gives a greater emphasis and role to the performance measures than currently given in typical SSM studies. Currently the concept of performance measurement in SSM is in the form of a s...

The notion of project management maturity (PMM) is central to the understanding of project success in general and information systems (IS) projects in particular. Yet, while the professional press assumes for years a positive relationship between PMM level and IS project success, this relationship is still not well understood in the IS literature. Drawing on project management maturity perspect...

We explore generalizations of the pari-mutuel model (PMM), a formalization of an intuitive way of assessing an upper probability from a precise one. We discuss a naive extension of the PMM considered in insurance and generalize the natural extension of the PMM introduced by P. Walley and other related formulae. The results are subsequently given a risk measurement interpretation: in particular ...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to review the literature in the field of performance measurement and management (PMM) for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and large companies and propose a research agenda for the future. Design/methodology/approach – This paper provides an update of Neely’s work ‘‘The evolution of performance measurement research’’ The literature review has been carri...

Recent research on management control and performance measurement (PMM) points towards a concern to provide suitable systems in nonprofit organizations (NPOs). However, few attempts have been made understand these how their peculiarities influence this process. This empirically discusses NPOs’ features through the lens of system’ design, first step for an iterative PMM. A case study with two NP...
