Project Portfolio Management and Information Technology Strategic Alignment

This study analyzes the relationship between Project Portfolio Management (PPM) and the Information Technology (IT) strategic alignment in conjunction with the intensity of technology usage. The methodological approach was a survey-based research, using structural equation modeling based on a field study involving 158 responses. The results indicate PPM has a positive relationship with IT strategic alignment and the intensity of technology usage in the organization does not affect this relationship. It is an original practical and theoretical finding that adds to the PPM studies an important perspective to be considered in the organizations and new research.
