“…Therefore, hypothesis 1 is not valid. Our results are in contrast with the findings of Diallo and Thuillier (2004), Enrique et al, (2016) and Cooke-Davies (2002). In Vietnam, the too strong participation of many stakeholders can result in the decision disagreements.…”

“…Other authors (Enrique et al, 2016); Cooke-Davies, 2002) distinguish two different concepts of success for a project: (1) success in project management concerns implementation time, cost, and quality of the project. This concept considers the project as a process by involving the satisfaction of users and key stakeholders; and (2) success of project is measured by comparing with initial strategic objectives and goals of project owner, as well as with the satisfaction of users and key stakeholders.…”

This empirical paper focuses on the critical success factors of international projects in Vietnam. Our regression results indicate that two factors including project conditions and partners' capacities do not have significant impact on the project success in Vietnam. In contrast, we found only two factors including partners' commitments and communication that have significant and positive impact on the project success. So, in an environment with many policy changes like Vietnam, if the stakeholders make strong commitments, the success likelihood of international project is higher. Also, smooth internal and external communication contributes plays an important role in the project management, stakeholder connection and decision-making process that are favorable for the project success.

Sustainability is a field of growing interest in Project Management (PM). Literature on Sustainability in PM is abundant at a theoretical level; however, it is necessary to explore hands-on approaches for designing models and practices. The purpose of this study is to introduce management systems as a practical tool for Sustainability in PM. Management system certifications are used as an indicator of the implementation of Sustainability practices, and thus, the impact of Sustainability on the success of projects is analyzed. The methodology for this study includes the analysis of the correspondence between Sustainability and five recognized management system standards (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 50001, UNE 166002 and OHSAS 18001) and experimental research based on data delivered by CDTI (Center for Industrial Technological Development) including relevant and objective information about R&D&I Projects in the energy sector. This study analyzes the impact of four variables (duration, budget, year of funding and certifications to management systems) on the success of the project. The conclusion is the significant positive impact of having management system certifications on the success of company projects analyzed in the Spanish energy sector, which may be of interest to PM practitioners in order to consider Sustainability as a factor for success.

“…In this sense, Agarwal & Rathod (2006) suggest that customer satisfaction with the project is also a critical aspect of success. Rodríguez-Segura et al (2016) stated that the classification of project success is a multidimensional construct that depends on many factors; however, it should be considered mainly the client/user perspectives, and the firm's project policies.…”

Paper aims: Although many researchers have identified important factors for project success, there is no consensus with regard to all the factors that influence project success. This work aims to assess organizational factors that influence project success in automotive firms. Originality: Few studies have analyzed the integrated relationship between organizational factors and project success. Research method: The study carries out a quantitative survey on a sample of 72 companies. Data were analyzed through confirmatory factor analysis. Main findings: The results show that the variable that most influences project success is 'organizational culture', followed by 'change management', and 'top management support'. The results also indicate that a culture of flexibility and a climate that supports innovation tend to positively influence project performance. Implications for theory and practice: The findings suggest that it is relevant to focus attention on human resource development, empowerment, and teamwork within the context of project management.
