A Functional and Conceptual Model of the Project Management Information System

Software products to support project management are very complex and expensive and for that reason small and medium enterprises (SME) lack the possibilities to use them. The paper presents our study on the project management information system (PMIS) that is appropriate for SME through aspects of architecture, functional model and conceptual model. PMIS architecture presents applications and integrations between them. A functional model presents phases and modules, separately for the project portfolio management and project management. A conceptual model in presented through sub-models for the project portfolio management, project management and reporting. The paper represents the first stage of our research on PMIS for SME where the goal is to evaluate the option for the development of PMIS that is suitable for SME.
