The article „Agile Projects in Nonagile Portfolios: How Project Portfolio Contingencies Constrain Agile Projects’ Teamwork Quality" by Jadena Bechtel, Carsten Kaufmann and Alexander Kock is published in the Journal IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management (IEEE-TEM).

The article investigates the role of agile practices for a project's teamwork quality (TWQ) and project success and examines the influence of organizational contingencies. A multi-informant analysis (hierarchical regression) of 378 projects nested in 100 portfolios shows that agile practices positively relate to project success through TWQ. Results show that traditional PPM practices such as business case existence, strategic clarity, and operational control constrain this relationship.
