Abstract: Abstract Large scale publicly funded research projects involving both academia and industry have gained tremendous importance in information systems research. However, little knowledge is available on how to suitably manage these projects. Project management contingency frameworks can help to characterize the specific type of a project and offer guidelines for its management. In this paper we apply these frameworks to collaborative research projects. As a result we present a first set of management guidelines derived from each framework and highlight further directions of research towards a comprehensive management approach for collaborative research projects
