The Integration of Artificial Intelligence in Project Management: A Review

Project management is the coordination of a number of procedures to achieve ‎the desired goals of a project. It involves planning, monitoring and execution. The over ‎expansion of IT projects increased their complexity, uncertainty and its variability. ‎Therefore, it has become difficult for traditional methods to manage these projects ‎effectively. As these methods rely on experience and intuition and cannot deal with vast ‎amounts of data, repetitive tasks or high variability. As a result, the outcomes maybe ‎prone to errors. Consequently, the failure rate of IT projects increases. Since technology ‎is an essential element for any organization, they have to find solutions in order to ‎manage IT projects. AI has proven its effectiveness in many fields. In this research, ‎through a literature review, we will study the most prominent aspects of integration ‎between AI and project management in terms of challenges and impacts. As well as the ‎contribution of AI in the knowledge areas of project management. We will focus on ‎exploring how AI improves these specific knowledge areas: risk management, cost ‎management, and scheduling management. From this research, we conclude that AI ‎proved its ability to enhance many aspects of project management. Therefore, the ‎research offers important insights for organizations that attempt to adopt AI into project ‎management‎.
