Summary: | Project management (PM) has garnered significant
attention from both academia and business stakeholders to understand the
factors that contribute to the success of project delivery. Despite years of
accumulated experience and a significant increase in the number of certified
project managers, the success rate of construction projects remains relatively
low. This study aims to explore possible determinants for collaborative project
management success and validate the framework in the context of the Malaysian
construction industry. Specifically, the study tested project management
maturity, decision-making management, knowledge management, organizational
culture, coordination, and PM certification as antecedents for collaborative
project management success. The study adopted a quantitative research approach
and used a close-ended questionnaire as the data collection instrument. The
questionnaires were distributed to local project practitioners, and the 232
responses were analyzed using Partial Least Squares of the Structural Equation
Modeling (PLS-SEM). The empirical evidence indicates significant relationships
between the identified determinants and project management success. The study's
findings can be applied to manage construction projects or any other collaborative
project and also contribute to the project management body of knowledge and
elaboration of Coordination Theory application in home construction projects.
However, emerging challenges to PM in the post-COVID era suggest that further
studies on PM success factors are necessary. |
