Project Resource Management Survey

I am a senior in the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin and will be graduating in May 2010 with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree. This summer, Cognitive Technologies is sponsoring my research in project resource management. Project resource management is "the planning, allocating, and scheduling of resources to tasks, generally including manpower, machine, money, and materials." Since project resources are the biggest component of both project costs and schedule variance, we contend that ineffective resource management may be one of the primary sources of project failures. This research is an extremely important first step in unraveling the impact resource management has on aspects such as project success and profitability.

The survey contains:

Basic profile questions about your organization, so that we can determine how practices vary by organization size, type (i.e. public, private, etc.), industry, and how beliefs vary by the title of the respondent.
Questions to assess the usage of resource management tools and processes and the existence of any challenges across organizations

To thank you for your participation, the survey sponsor, Cognitive Technologies, would be pleased to offer you a complimentary digital copy of the final findings report.
