Advancing Sustainable Project Management: Interplay of Cost, Risk, and Schedule Management with AI and Knowledge Management Processes

    This study explores the nexus of project risk, cost and schedule management on sustainable project management in Pakistani manufacturing companies where knowledge management is considered a mediator and artificial intelligence moderator. Data from project management professionals were analysed. The results show that project cost and schedule management significantly influence sustainable project management and that knowledge management practices mediate this relationship. In addition, artificial intelligence modifies the impact of cost and schedule management on sustainability. The findings provide recommendations for companies to improve sustainable project management, focusing on economic and competitive advantages, stakeholder management and innovative sustainable business models.
