“…This helps identify areas where changes might have led to shortcomings or failures. The practicality of applying the theory of change in a situation involving scope modification depends on the ability of both the stakeholders and the project change manager to identify, prioritize, and analyze critical project activities and contextual factors (Jiya, 2021).…”

The researcher aimed to highlight the effect of project management practices on project Performance. Effective project management is a key strategic capability that allows organizations to bridge the gap between project Performance and their business goals. The general objective of this study was to assess the effect of project management practices on the Performance of the USAID Soma Umenye project. The study was guided by three research objectives namely: to examine the effect of project scope management on the Performance of the USAID Soma Umenye project; To explore the effect of effective stakeholder management on the Performance of the USAID Soma Umenye project; and to assess the effect of project human resource management on the Performance of USAID Soma Umenye project. This research adopted correlative study design. The study focused on the USAID Soma Umenye project in Rwanda specifically in Nyamagabe District. Project management practices were evaluated by USAID Soma Umenye project implementers, partners, and beneficiaries. The population of the study was 315 participants in the USAID Soma Umenye project in Nyamagabe District. The sample size was 176 respondents; it was calculated by using Solvin's sample size formula. The study was limited to Nyamagabe district, specifically in 5 sectors Gasaka, Tare, Kitabi, Kibilizi, and Cyanika. The respondents are a subset of P3 teachers, headteachers, and all SEIs of those sectors, DEO, DDE of Nyamagabe District, USAID Soma Umenye project staff at Nyamagabe district and national level. The researcher used two tools of data collection in the study including questionnaires and documentary reviews. The researcher used SPSS as a tool for data analysis. The findings revealed that there is positive and significant effect of project scope management on Performance of USAID Soma Umenye project, (β = 0.45; p-value < 5%),), hence the first hypothesis is rejected. The study findings indicated that there is positive and insignificant effect of stakeholder on Performance of USAID Soma Umenye project (β = 461; p-value < 5%), hence the second hypothesis was accepted. Thirdly, it was discovered that there is positive and significant effect of project HR management on Performance of USAID Soma Umenye project (β = 0.532; p-value < 5%), hence the third hypothesis was rejected. For recommendations, the management was suggested to get strong structure in promoting effective communication within any project. In addition, let the local leaders be part of the projects since these are same people that are always be in the communities even after the closure of the projects.

“…Stakeholder engagement itself can be defined as "aims, activities and impacts of stakeholder relations in a moral, strategic and/or pragmatic manner" (Kujala et al, 2022). Stakeholders of successful research projects typically include researchers, industry actors and funders, but also local authorities and end-users (Jiya, 2021). The nature of stakeholder engagement in FP projects has already been described in several studies related to smart and resilient cities, e.g.…”

PurposeThis research assesses the implications of integrating standardization activities into European research projects to foster the engagement of project internal and external stakeholders and into different project stakeholder management theories.Design/methodology/approachThis paper analyzes the integration of standardization and the engagement of project internal and external stakeholders in standardization activities in a multi-case study of four European Framework Program projects and with the projects Advancing Resilience of Historic Areas Against Climate-Related and Other Hazards (ARCH) and Smart Mature Resilience (SMR) in two separate case studies more deeply. The multi-case study mainly evaluates the stakeholder participation in 10 CEN Workshop Agreements. While in the two case studies, among other things, two project surveys are used to investigate how stakeholder engagement was supported by standardization activities.FindingsThe results show that standardization significantly supports stakeholder engagement and lead to a proposal on how standardization can support achieving stakeholder engagement goals in the different research project phases.Originality/valueThis research provides practical information for policy-makers who support standardization as a tool for research, as well as for researchers and project managers who want to use standardization activities efficiently in research projects.

Kemajuan Teknologi dan perlintasan zaman Society 5.0 menuntut organisasi sektor publik untuk mengintegrasikan teknologi di dalam kinerja pelayanan dan tata kelola agar lebih efisien, bersih, transparan, akuntabel, dan partisipatif. Konsep E-Government menjadi semakin populer di Indonesia, salah satunya dengan keberadaan kebijakan KTP Digital pada awal tahun 2023. Transformasi digital administrasi kependudukan ini harus efektif salah satunya dengan menggandeng generasi millenial dan Gen-Z sebagai pionir transformasi digital di Indonesia. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi keberhasilan penerapan kebijakan KTP Digital di tengah generasi millenial-Gen Z dan mengembangkan kerangka kerja konseptual yang berkaitan dengan penerapan teknologi digital dalam administrasi kependudukan. Studi ini mengembangkan delapan hipotesis dengan instrumen indikator yang telah ditetapkan. Data didapatkan dari survei di tengah generasi millenial dan Gen Z dengan penyebaran berbasis online pada Bulan Januari-Februari 2023 dan sampelnya ditarik dengan teknik Convenience Sampling. Hasil data dianalisis dengan teknik SEM PLS. Pada hasil analisis ditemukan faktor kesadaran, pengaruh sosial, persepsi biaya untuk bertransformasi, dan kepercayaan yang dirasakan pada teknologi serta pemerintah sebagai penentu penting dari niat untuk menggunakan KTP Digital. Namun menariknya terdapat penolakan faktor risiko di dalam penentu niat menggunakan KTP Digital yang ditelisik lebih lanjut dikarenakan beban tanggung jawab pemerintah sebagai pengambil kebijakan. Sehingga studi ini menyimpulkan perlunya penguatan infrastruktur, jemput bola transformasi dan sosialisasi KTP Digital menjadi tiga solusi utama mendorong masyarakat yakin dan siap bertransformasi dengan KTP Digital.
