| Abstract: | The paper examines the managing of high-tech projects in complex and dynamic settings. It builds on recent developments in organization theory and knowledge management and focuses on the importance of understanding the ways in which project-centered activities are shaped in time and space, both in the organization itself and in a wider context embracing customers, consultants and suppliers. The findings are substantiated by a longitudinal case study. The analysis reveals that boundary spanning has many dimensions that need to be considered in the management of projects in space and time. |
