Challenges and Solutions in e-Science Project Management

The e-Science Project Managers Forum held from December 12-13, 2002, focused on key challenges in the realm of academic and commercial project management. Discussions highlighted issues like the lack of experience among academic PMs, the complexities of diverse political landscapes, and the difficulties in estimation and planning for high-risk projects. Attendees emphasized the need for better collaboration across various e-Science projects within the UK and globally, and the vital role of standards-setting bodies. The forum aims to create a permanent space for project managers to address these issues collectively and work towards effective solutions.
