INFLUENCE OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ON IMPLEMENTATION OF COUNTY GOVERNMENTS PROJECTS IN KENYA: A CASE OF NAKURU COUNTY
Authors: Francis Mwangi Kimiti
Year: 2018

The purpose of this study was to investigate influence of project management practices on implementation of county government projects in Kenya. The researcher focused on the situation at the County of Nakuru as a case study. The study adopted the descriptive survey research design as aided in the determination of the current state of affairs in the County of Nakuru. The target population comprised of 78 county government projects in Nakuru County completed between 2011 and 2015. Data was analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively using SPSS. It was notable that there exists strong positive relationship between the independent variables and dependent variable as shown by R value (0.786). It shows that the independent variables in the study were able to explain 61.80% variation in the implementation of county government projects while the remaining 38.20% is explained by the variables or other aspects outside the model. The study established that independent variables influence implementation of county government projects. The study revealed that the independent variables statistically, strongly and significantly correlated to implementation of county government projects. The study recommended that the projects should have work plan devised to achieve specific objectives within a specified period of time. The project teams should identify the specific schedule activities to produce various project schedules and dependencies among schedule activities. The project managers should identify the needs and expectations of the stakeholders in relation to the success of the project. The success of the project should be dependent on primary customer satisfaction. The study recommended for continuous project monitoring to ensure the county gets value for the invested money in the projects. There is need to enhance a participative monitoring and evaluation to ensure that the management objectives are achieved and evaluation reviews key performance indicators of the project quality carried out regularly. This study confined itself to Nakuru county government projects in Kenya. A comparative study should be carried out to compare whether the findings also apply to other projects in different regions in order to validate whether the findings can be generalized in Kenya.

Drivers of Cultural Differences in Information System Adoption - A Case Study
Authors: Stephanie Ryschka; M. Bick
Year: 2013

There are various studies demonstrating the influence of cultural differences on IS adoption decisions, whereby variation among corresponding findings is substantial. In contrast to previous quantitative studies which focus mainly on uncovering the kinds of differences that exist in the adoption process across cultures, we scrutinize the motives for these differences in adoption decisions with a qualitative case study across China, the United States and Switzerland. By applying the extended technology acceptance model and the GLOBE study, we analyze the adoption decisions of a subset of an ERP system – quality management systems. By means of a case study containing document analysis, evaluations of observations and interviews, five system-related and four project-management-related influencing variables are identified, leading to the basis for a future research agenda. Finally, the practical and theoretical contribution of this study consists of an enriched understanding of culturally determined variables for the implementation of IS.
Improving professional development through building contract administration (BCA) framework of housing projects for graduate architects
Authors: S. Y. Tiew
Year: 2024

PurposeThe administration of a contract by the architect is necessary to ensure the contract is performed according to the conditions of the contract, compliance with related laws and the practices of the construction industry. With the increasing number of housing projects and the limited number of registered architects in the nation, the architect is unable to be hands-on with every project. Hence, the involvement of graduate architects to reduce the workload in building contract administration (BCA) is required. The purpose of this paper is to develop a BCA framework for graduate architects to enhance their work performance in BCA work and to assist them in moving a step closer to acquiring their professional qualifications.Design/methodology/approachThis study adopted a qualitative method where seven housing projects in Malaysia were selected as case studies to conduct documentation reviews and semistructured interviews. The data collected was analyzed using content analysis to develop the BCA framework. Focus groups were used to validate the framework.FindingsThis study summarized there are 5 themes (claims and legal matters management, project management, communication and relationship management, quality assessment and management, and design management) and 11 sub-themes (authority matters, building certification, meetings, coordination checklist, letter-writing, contract documentation, building material, design brief, building sustainability and workmanship quality standard, contractor’s submission and building details) that need to be improved by graduate architects in BCA work.Originality/valueThe contribution of this study to the existing knowledge is the development of a BCA framework that enables graduate architects to get a glimpse of architectural professional practice in reality and better prepare them to confront and resolve problems. Besides, the proposed framework could be incorporated into a pedagogy focusing on methods to support construction contract administrators.
Accidental vs Intentional Project Managers: A Case Study
Authors: Desmond Tres Bishop
Year: 2023

Project management has increasingly become an important part of business globally. Once referred to as the “accidental profession”, project management has recently made strides to become more professionalized. What results are now available? This project uses the case study research methodology to take an in-depth look into project management at a small to medium-sized enterprise. The case employs an empirically proven framework to compare and contrast accidental and intentional project management attitudes and traditional versus protean career approaches. Based on semi-structured interviews, documented evidence, and direct observation, the project suggests that accidental project management is still prevalent in industry, as are protean career attitudes. Additionally, this study recommends that a greater focus on early project management education may result in increased intentional entry into the profession.
Evaluating the Relative Performance of Engineering Design Projects: A Case Study Using Data Envelopment Analysis
Authors: J. Farris; Richard L. Groesbeck; E. V. Aken; Geert Letens
Year: 2006

This paper presents a case study of how Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was applied to generate objective cross-project comparisons of project duration within an engineering department of the Belgian Armed Forces. To date, DEA has been applied to study projects within certain domains (e.g., software and R&D); however, DEA has not been proposed as a general project evaluation tool within the project management literature. In this case study, we demonstrate how DEA fills a gap not addressed by commonly applied project evaluation methods (such as earned value management) by allowing the objective comparison of projects on actual measures, such as duration and cost, by explicitly considering differences in key input characteristics across these projects. Thus, DEA can overcome the paradigm of project uniqueness and facilitate cross-project learning. We describe how DEA allowed the department to gain new insight about the impact of changes to its engineering design process (redesigned based on ISO 15288), creating a performance index that simultaneously considers project duration and key input variables that determine project duration. We conclude with directions for future research on the application of DEA as a project evaluation tool for project managers, program office managers, and other decision-makers in project-based organizations
Beyond the rhetoric: what do we mean by a 'model of care'?
Authors: P. Davidson; E. Halcomb; Louise D. Hickman; Jane Phillips; B. Graham
Year: 2006

BACKGROUND
Contemporary health care systems are constantly challenged to revise traditional methods of health care delivery. These challenges are multifaceted and stem from: (1) novel pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments; (2) changes in consumer demands and expectations; (3) fiscal and resource constraints; (4) changes in societal demographics in particular the ageing of society; (5) an increasing burden of chronic disease; (6) documentation of limitations in traditional health care delivery; (7) increased emphasis on transparency, accountability, evidence-based practice (EBP) and clinical governance structures; and (8) the increasing cultural diversity of the community. These challenges provoke discussion of potential alternative models of care, with scant reference to defining what constitutes a model of care.


AIM
This paper aims to define what is meant by the term 'model of care' and document the pragmatic systems and processes necessary to develop, plan, implement and evaluate novel models of care delivery.


METHODS
Searches of electronic databases, the reference lists of published materials, policy documents and the Internet were conducted using key words including 'model*', 'framework*', 'models, theoretical' and 'nursing models, theoretical'. The collated material was then analysed and synthesised into this review.


RESULTS
This review determined that in addition to key conceptual and theoretical perspectives, quality improvement theory (eg. collaborative methodology), project management methods and change management theory inform both pragmatic and conceptual elements of a model of care. Crucial elements in changing health care delivery through the development of innovative models of care include the planning, development, implementation, evaluation and assessment of the sustainability of the new model. Regardless of whether change in health care delivery is attempted on a micro basis (eg. ward level) or macro basis (eg. national or state system) in order to achieve sustainable, effective and efficient changes a well-planned, systematic process is essential.

Authors: Mahesan Viknaruban; K.A.K. Devapriya; A. Parameswaran
Year: 2024

ABSTRACT International Construction Joint Ventures (ICJVs) offer benefits to both local and foreign partners. However, their failure rates tend to be high, leading to poor ICJV performance. Effective Project Management (PM) is considered a means to resolve challenges in a construction project. Therefore, this research aims to address the challenges in ICJV projects within the Sri Lankan construction industry through PM practices to establish successful ICJVs. The research adopted a mixed-method approach. A preliminary survey was conducted to validate the challenges in the Sri Lankan context. After that, challenges were ranked based on their significance level using the Relative Importance Index (RII) method through a questionnaire survey. Then, Semi-structured interviews were conducted to identify the PM practices that can address significant challenges through code-based content analysis. The study revealed 38 challenges applicable to ICJVs and identified 88 PM practices for resolving 10 significant challenges out of the 38 identified in ICJV projects in Sri Lanka (SL). Finally, a framework was developed for successful ICJVs by addressing challenges through PM practices. This study marks the first attempt to establish a framework for successful ICJVs by addressing challenges through PM practices in the Sri Lankan construction industry.

Authors: Diana Suwardi; Suhana Saad
Year: 2024

The Public-Private Partnership (PPP) implementation approach in Malaysia aims to enhance the delivery of public sector infrastructure and services. However, the Auditor General's Report 2012 highlighted several deficiencies in PPP project management, including delays, poor quality, and inefficient resource use. This study seeks to identify the issues in the management of PPP projects in Malaysia that contribute to these ongoing problems and to propose improvements for enhancing PPP practices. Adopting a qualitative approach with an inductive single case study, the research involved semi-structured interviews with 14 participants conducted over one month in May 2024. The data were analyzed using NVivo Version 14 software through thematic analysis, which generated relevant codes, categories, themes, and domains. The findings reveal seven key strategic issues in PPP project management, such as accountability; incentives and assistance; values, norms, and prevalence; standards and procedures; good and moral governance; duties and roles; and laws and regulations. To improve PPP practices in Malaysia, it is essential for both the government and private sector key players in PPP project management to focus on enhancing capacity building and process optimization. This study provides valuable insights for future PPP project management in Malaysia and serves as a guide for strengthening PPP practices.
EFFECT OF COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AT THE PLANNING PHASE ON PROJECT SUSTAINABILITY IN PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES IN KENYA: A CASE STUDY OF JOMO KENYATTA UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE AND TECHNOLOGY
Authors: J. M. Migwi; Rukia Atikiya
Year: 2017

The main objective of this study was to assess the effects of community engagement at different project phases on projects sustainability. To achieve this, the study specifically investigated the effect of engaging the community during the planning, implementation and monitoring and evaluation phases of project management towards achieving sustainability. Data was collected from 200 different people who had been involved with JKUAT sponsored community projects. This represented 10% of the entire population. Case study research design was applied.  Primary data was collected using self-administered questionnaire while secondary data was collected from JKUAT’s annual reports, journals, books, researches, thesis, dissertations, articles, working papers, and the internet. Data was collected by drop and pick method. The questionnaire were evaluated for content validity and reliability. Data presentation was done using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software. From the findings, it was deduced that the community was not fully involved in all the stages of projects development. In the project planning phase, the respondents indicated minimal involvement where a majority of the respondents disagreed in community engagement in the identification of community based projects. In the project implementation stage, majority of the respondents disagreed on involvement of the community in the coordination of the project activities. The findings also indicated lack of community engagement in the evaluation and monitoring stage which was evidenced by the fact that most of the respondents disagreed that the community formed the evaluation team and helped develop the performance indicators. The study concluded that sustainability had neither been mainstreamed nor prioritized in each phase. It was recommended that there was need for community members to identify their own needs, analyze the factors that lead to the needs, and draw up community action plans and schedules to address the needs.  The study also recommended that before the implementing parties commence on the project, there should be exhaustive and detailed approach to mainstream and prioritize project sustainability in all the phases with specific steps deliberately taken to entrench long-term project benefits.
