The Impact of AI and Data Analytics on Project Management Information Systems (PMIS)

This chapter explores the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Data Analytics in modern Project Management Information Systems (PMIS). It delves into how these technologies redefine project planning, execution, and monitoring, enhancing efficiency and decision-making capabilities. AI empowers project managers with predictive analytics, automation, and real-time insights, enabling proactive responses to risks and bottlenecks. Data analytics complements this by uncovering patterns, diagnosing issues, and prescribing optimal strategies for improved outcomes. Real-world applications illustrate the strategic alignment of projects with broader organizational goals. Challenges such as data governance, cybersecurity, and talent requirements are addressed, along with future directions like digital twins and advanced algorithms. This discussion positions AI and Data Analytics as indispensable tools for achieving sustainable, data-driven project success in an increasingly complex landscape.
