From the Paper:

" This means that effective project management will not only become more complex for businesses as they grow in e-commerce, but essential. Unfortunately, most organizations underestimate the need for a continuous commitment to implement, integrate and optimize their enterprise applications. In the future for successful e-commerce organizations, PM will develop from separate project entities to an overall strategic project management cycle that moves from planning, to implementation, to maintenance and upgrade, to optimization and back to planning again. This will allow e-commerce organizations to handle the risks and changes they will face, yet grow their business to be more globally competitive."
