Scale in project management: A review and research agenda 

 - Project Management Journal

<br/><br/> Scale is commonly deployed as a descriptor in the extant project management literature without an associated discussion of what this means. Following a literature review and synthesis of 172 papers we identify three findings. First, most papers addressed the foundational concept of scale obliquely, suggesting a conceptual gap. Second, where scale is mentioned, it is mostly in association with large-scale projects and megaprojects. There are few papers discussing small- to medium-scale projects. Third, the limited categorization of scale is linked to limited discussion of its managerial implications. We then synthesize this research to establish a project scale framework and position future research avenues.- Reproduced <br/><br/>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/87569728241256611<br/>
