Purpose

This work investigates the influence of the organizational life cycle (OLC) on the performance management system (PMS) design and the performance of projects in Brazilian industries of software development.

Design/methodology/approach

The study employed descriptive statistics and structural equations modeling on the data and information obtained from 115 Brazilian industries of software development with maturity in project management. Data collection was carried out through a survey applied to managers of the organizations mapped and certified by management maturity models Brazilian software process improvement (MPS-BR) or capability maturity model integration (CMMI).

Findings

Results revealed that OLC influences the PMS design dimensions (scope, aggregation and opportunity) and project performance. Regarding effects observed on the performance of projects, only the scope dimension's influence was validated by the analyses, and the other dimensions were not significant considering the investigated sample.

Originality/value

The paper shows evidence of how OLC can influence PMS design and project performance. The analyses can help managers to improve their actions in the PMS design, increasing confidence and generating more robust and sustainable results in the business model.

组织生命周期对软件行业绩效管理设计的影响

目的

这项工作调查了组织生命周期 (OLC) 对绩效管理系统 (PMS) 设计和巴西软件开发行业项目绩效的影响。

设计/方法/途径

该研究对从巴西 115 个项目管理成熟的软件开发行业获得的数据和信息采用描述性统计和结构方程建模。数据收集是通过对管理成熟度模型巴西软件过程改进 (MPS-BR) 或能力成熟度模型集成 (CMMI) 映射和认证的组织经理进行的调查进行的。

发现

结果表明，OLC 影响 PMS 设计维度（范围、聚合和机会）和项目绩效。关于观察到的对项目绩效的影响，分析仅验证了范围维度的影响，考虑到所调查的样本，其他维度的影响并不显着。

原创性/价值

本文展示了 OLC 如何影响 PMS 设计和项目绩效的证据。这些分析可以帮助管理人员改进他们在 PMS 设计中的行动，增强信心并在业务模型中产生更稳健和可持续的结果。
