Like every other industry sector, project management is being transformed by new technologies, such as big data, analytics and artificial intelligence (AI). "Large projects generate huge amounts of complex data that needs to be analysed and monitored to create valuable insights and predictions about a project's progress. Fed with the right data, AI systems could accurately produce information on budgets or estimated time frames in real time, something that even the most experienced human project managers could never do." In a recent survey of project managers by AXELOS, a UK government and Capita joint venture, 57 per cent expect AI and machine-learning to have a profound impact on project management, with 59 per cent believing that as automation increases, daily routine tasks of project management will no longer be a burden on them.
