Classical Project Management originated in highly technical and scientific organisations such as NASA and the armed forces. It employs sophisticated methods for structuring and managing activities, while also requiring a strong project-oriented mindset and an organisational culture aligned with project-based work.

However, most commercial, service, and even industrial organisations are not primarily project-driven — unlike consulting firms, for example — but instead operate mainly through their core ongoing processes.

This means that employees are generally more inclined to focus on their day-to-day responsibilities rather than dedicating time to additional project work.

To improve team organisation in a project context at ALKYMA, we support the development of a project management culture based on a small number of fundamental principles, a few essential tools, and a highly participative interaction among project members, integrating practices inspired by the AGILE movement.
