“…In this sense, there is an important research stream that combines sustainability principles and different predictive methodologies to estimate uncertainty situations with stakeholders (modeling and simulation of scenarios, backcasting, forecasting, and so on). Thus, the final objective is to facilitate project manager anticipation and rapid decision-making in those situations that are desirable for the project [89][90][91]. Taking into account that stakeholders have a growing social awareness, access to information and a critical opinion about the performance of companies regarding the impact of their economic activity, elements that are essential to stakeholders' participation in a project.…”

Nowadays the advance towards sustainability poses a global challenge for modern society as well as for companies. Professionals and academics continually redefine business processes and design management mechanisms in a more appropriate way in order to allow companies to balance economic activity with the environmental and social impact that they generate. Under this complex and dynamic scenario, creating a product, providing a service, or achieving a given result requires a different interpretation of the efficiency paradigm and an adequate socio-environmental intelligence. In the context of project management, sustainability-related knowledge, skills, and suitable tools are necessary to face this challenge. Moreover, its close relationship with stakeholder theory presents an alternative to approach that purpose. This article attempts a systematic review of the literature on stakeholder theory in project management during the past nine years, with the aim of providing a comprehensive view of this relationship, revealing its impact and influence on sustainability, and finding new research paths. We highlight the potential benefits derived from this relationship, either as an instrument for the promotion of corporate social responsibility and inclusive policies, as a means for the generation of shared value and technological innovation, or as a key factor in the strategy and business management of a given project.

“…Research has acknowledged the need for IT evaluation framework building (Björnsson & Lundegård, 1992) and recommends to use and to develop more advanced, or combined instruments that take into account multi-criteria, multi-stakeholder, and systemic streams of OR (Kunsch, Kavathatzopoulos, & Rauschmayer, 2009). Different researchers and practitioners develop frameworks to guide decision makers through the process (Reiner & Stix, 2004;Remenyi, 1999).…”

“…This method supports the requirement for IS evaluations to be tailored to the needs of individual settings based on their environment, the context of the evaluation, what is to be evaluated and the inclusion of needed stakeholders (Stockdale & Standing, 2006). Additionally, we answer the call for more advanced, or combined instruments to take into account multi-criteria, multi-stakeholder and systemic streams of operations research (Kunsch, Kavathatzopoulos, & Rauschmayer, 2009).…”

Motivated by IT evaluation problems identified in a large public sector organization, we propose how evaluation requirements can be supported by a framework combining different models and methods from IS evaluation theory. The article extends the content, context, process (CCP) perspectives of organizational change with operations research techniques and demonstrates the approach in practice for an Enterprise Resource Planning evaluation.
