Abstrakt

This paper identifies the true coverage of PM theory through a bibliometric analysis of the International Journal of Project Management from 1996-2012. We identify six
persistent research themes: project time management, project risk management,
programme management, large-scale project management, project success/failure and practitioner development. These differ from those presented in review and editorial articles in the literature. In addition, topics missing from the PM BOK: knowledge management project-based organization and project portfolio management have become more popular topics in recent years and are expected to show an increasing trend of development in the future.
