摘要:Sustainability is one of the most important challenges of our time. Companies are integrating sustainability in theirmarketing, communication and their actions. Sustainability has more recently also been linked to project management.The logic behind this link is that sustainability needs change and projects are realizing change. Several studies exploredhow the concept of sustainability impact project management. The research project reported in this paper elaborates onthese works by studying how sustainability affects project success. Project managers, logically, strive for projectsuccess and considering sustainability may influence this success. Based upon a review of relevant literature, the paperdevelops a conceptual model that provides a more detailed understanding of how considering different dimensions ofsustainability may affect the individual criteria of project success. The study also provides a conceptual mapping of thedifferent relationships between dimensions of sustainability and criteria of project success. This mapping shows that themost positive relationships are expected for the relationship between sustainability and the success criteria stakeholdersatisfaction, future readiness and controlled project execution. The expected relationship between consideringsustainability and completing the project on schedule and within budget is uncertain
