    Research Trends in Management Issues of Global Software Development: Evaluating the Past To Envision the Future
    (Taylor & Francis inc, 2011) Mishra, Deepti; Mishra, Alok
    This paper presents research trends in management issues (project management, process management, knowledge management, requirements management, configuration management, risk management, quality management) of distributed/global information system development. The main objective is to highlight the current research and practice direction in these areas. The results are based on peer-reviewed conference papers/journal articles, published between 2000 and early 2011. The analysis revealed that most research has been done in project management, process management, knowledge management and requirements management areas while configuration, risk, and quality management issues could get only limited attention in global/distributed information system development. This indicates the need for future research (quantitative and qualitative) in these areas.

    Real Options Valuation of Solar Energy Projects: a Systematic Review
    (Association of Researchers in Construction Management, 2024) Ustun, F.S.; Bilgin, G.; Akcay, E.C.
    Energy plays an essential role in the development of countries, addressing the basic needs of people, and advancing technological progress. As the world's population and the energy demand in the industrial sector increase rapidly, the limited non-renewable energy resources prove insufficient to supply this demand. Consequently, both developed and developing countries are shifting towards renewable energy sources to meet their energy needs. As a result, the number of renewable energy projects in the world has been increasing day by day. Solar energy technology stands as an exemplar within the realm of renewable energy resources, playing a pivotal role in contributing to their overall share. Assessing the economic feasibility of solar energy projects is crucial to ensure their success. Traditional economic analysis methods often disregard managerial flexibility, leading to prefer the real options valuation for analysing the economic feasibility of solar energy projects. Therefore, the objective of this research is to review the application of the real options valuation for valuing solar energy projects in the existing literature. The findings of this study may provide a roadmap for future research efforts. © Association of Researchers in Construction Management

    Exploring the Critical Risk Factors of Public-Private Partnership City Hospital Projects in Turkey
    (Mdpi, 2024) Dogan Erdem, Tugba; Birgonul, Zeynep; Bilgin, Gozde; Akcay, Emre Caner
    Governments face challenges in delivering essential public services due to their limited funds. This has led to an increasing reliance on the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model, an alternative financing model involving a long-term collaboration between the private and public sectors to provide public services. Turkey, as a developing country facing financial limitations, has embraced the PPP model to address urgent public needs. Over the past decade, the Turkish Government has extensively utilized the PPP model, particularly in executing city hospital projects. However, investors have faced challenges in project execution due to various risk factors. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to explore the critical risk factors associated with PPP city hospital projects in Turkey. In this context, a comprehensive literature review was conducted to identify potential risks related to PPP city hospital projects. A questionnaire survey was implemented to assess the probability of occurrence and the severity of the impact of these risk factors. The collected data underwent analysis to determine the priority of these risk factors. The findings revealed that the top five most critical risk factors in PPP city hospital projects in Turkey are "foreign exchange rate fluctuations", "inflation rate volatility", "high finance costs", "fiscal issues", and "economic crises". Conversely, "unavailability of equipment" was identified as the least significant risk factor. The insights gained from this research can offer valuable guidance for prospective investors interested in participating in PPP city hospital projects in Turkey and other developing countries with similar conditions.
