What the paper says

The hybrid project management (HPM) approach aims to leverage the strengths of various methodologies while mitigating their weaknesses, thereby supporting project managers in achieving project success. However, there is limited comprehensive knowledge about the practical implementation of HPM in organizations. This paper seeks to bridge the gap in academic literature regarding HPM, as examined in Web of Science and Scopus, and to investigate the existence and application of HPM in practice. The authors analyze the significance, benefits, and drawbacks of different project management methodologies. The research follows PRISMA guidelines, addressing five specific research questions to ensure a systematic, transparent, and rigorous process. The findings are presented in structured tables, offering a thorough understanding of the subject. This study provides a foundational basis for future research on HPM, particularly within the business administration field. It focuses exclusively on hybrid methodologies relevant to business products and service development areas, excluding unrelated hybrid approaches. In summary, this paper aims to enhance the understanding and application of HPM, offering valuable insights for both academic and practical advancements in project management.
