The interactive project - a model for analyzing environmental uncertainty

• Contemporary organization theory reminds us about the impact of the environment on what is going on in organizations and that neither permanent nor temporary organizations can be understood without taking their relations to other organizations into consideration. The aim of this article is to outline a model for analyzing fundamental relationships between projects and important actors in its environment. The model can be used for identifying determinants of uncertainty in the environment and how these influence project structures, processes and outcomes. The model enables us to contrast different ways in which relationships either constrain or enable projects to accomplish their tasks.
