ABSTRACT: This paper is about e-governance in project management. This topic is increasingly coming to focus as the project management methodologies are becoming more mature and the troubles in project management are not in processes, tools and techniques any more. The troubles in project management are in: how and who is taking the decision making and how to utilize project resources to the maximum possible level of effectiveness and efficiency. These two issues are the main concern of e-governance in project management. The aim is to understand the subject in a proper way, to focus on its impact, to highlight the risk of e-governance implementation and try to mitigate them and improve the processes of e-governance in organizations. This research uses a case study design in 3 organizations (Dubai Police, Road and Transport Authority (RTA), and the Dubai Health Authority (DHA)) by using qualitative research approach. The data is collected and analysed in a trial to address the gaps in this topic. The article concludes that combining the human mind and technological tools, such as AI and Blockchain and dashboard can add real value and drive positive change in project management governance. These tools allow project managers and stakeholders to make decisions and better governance of resources based on real-time data.
