Abstract:

Today, several website development companies use various project management tools to improve the performance of their services. An organization may conduct a variety of tasks at one point that needs a number of people or departments to contribute to a multi-level construction process, requiring a strong project management framework. Project management solutions in the IT industry are increasingly developing. With the continuously growing number of people using project management applications, web-based project management frameworks play a vital position in numerous businesses. There is a distinctive role for the accurate, robust, high-quality web apps for consumers in a proper project management framework. Developing and teaching people how a web-based project management framework should perform tasks. The scope of the study is these procedures in the daily work life. Also, the structure of this study was the stability and solidity of a web-based project management framework. Finally, a web-based project management technique is selected among others that satisfy the web-based project management's expectations and needs A quantitative research design will be adopted in achieving the objectives of this study. In view of this, a questionnaire will be designed with items to measure the effectiveness and/or suitability of four different project management techniques – Critical Path Method (CPM), Scrum, Kankan and Kaikaku – for web-based projects. A sample size of between 80 – 100 participants, including IT project management experts, has been proposed for this study. Descriptive statistics and multivariate regression analysis will be used for analyzing and comparing the four project management techniques under review. It is also important to state that a conceptual model will be designed around variables such as time, cost, accuracy, project size and the resources needed to implement the techniques. These variables will eventually be used in evaluating the efficiency/effectiveness of the various techniques for web-based projects. In essence, the efficiency of the techniques will register as the dependent variable while time, cost, accuracy, resources and project size will be categorized as the independent variables.
