The aim of this paper is to establish an international framework for sustainable project management in engineering, to make up the lack of research in this field, and to propose a scientific theoretical basis for the establishment of a new project management system. The article adopts literature review, mathematical programming algorithm and case study as the research method. The literature review applied the visual clustering research method and analyzed the results of 21-year research in this field. As a result, the project management system was found to have defects and deficiencies. A mathematical model was established to analyze the composition and elements of the optimized international project management system. The case study research selected large bridges for analysis and verified the superiority and practicability of the theoretical system. Thus, the goal of sustainable development of bridges was achieved. The value of this re-search lies in establishing a comprehensive international project management system model; truly integrating sustainable development with project management; providing new research frames and management models to promote the sustainable development of the construction industry.

This paper proposes a risk based approach in order to obtain a quantitative estimate of the salience of the stakeholders involved in a project. The integration between stakeholders and risk management processes in the Project Management System allows us to realize a twofold objective: a quantitative estimate of the salience of each stakeholder in terms of the contribution to the overall project riskiness and an identification of the most effective responses as a function of the dynamics of the risks generated by each stakeholder. The proposed approach has been applied to an international project concerning the building of a pipe line.

This paper reveals the project management reality in Polish organizations . Two groups of factors referring to the project manager are presented . The first one contains direct factors, i .e . these that can be influenced by the project manager himself: experience in project management (in years), level of certificate, sector of the economy . The second one comprises the indirect factors, which cannot be controlled by the project manager: number of projects carried out in the organization yearly, number of concurrent projects carried out in the organization, average project budget in the organization, average number of project team members . Conclusions are based on the research carried out in 2011 in cooperation with the International Project Management Association . Moreover, two hypotheses are verified, both refer to the Polish project management conditions .
