The role of artificial intelligence in project management: a supply chain perspective

Abstract

Artificial intelligence continuously overtakes an increased number of functions within numerous business fields. Consistently, its appliance in supply chain-related project management is also constantly rising. The purpose of this paper is to explore the role of artificial intelligent (AI) technologies in project management (PM) undertaken in supply chain (SC) contexts. Moreover, a focus is set on explaining the relationship between supply chain project management and AI, with emphasis on the appliance of AI in PM and the level of activities and operations that could be performed by the algorithms, AI-related integration challenges and risks and future anticipation of AI.
