Evaluation in design science: A framework to support project studies in the context of University Research Centres.

This paper proposes a discussion of the evaluation of an artefact developed under the Design Science paradigm using the Delphi method. It evaluates the Ecosystem framework of University Research Centres in Project Studies, considering a set of criteria pre-established in the literature. The Delphi method is an evaluation implemented in an electronic platform involving twenty-one participants, among whom were academics, practitioners, and PhD candidates in the field of project management.
