Authors: David Sudhir Otieno; P. K. Mutundu
Year: 2024

Kenya’s vision 2030 identifies infrastructural development as one of the very crucial pillars to economic growth. However, the projects are awash with delays in completion, cost and time overrun an index of their poor performance. Therefore, there is a need for reliance on monitoring and evaluation (M&E) to enhance performance of these construction-oriented projects for infrastructural development. In this regard, the purpose of this study was to analyze the Influence of Monitoring and Evaluation Tools on the performance of Road Infrastructural Projects funded by the County Government of Kisii in Kenya. The study sought to analyze the influence of; progress reviews, balanced scorecards, performance contracting and project audits on the completion of road infrastructural projects funded by the County Government of Kisii. The study was guided by program and theory of project management. It adopted a descriptive research design based on samples drawn from across construction projects funded by the county government of Kisii from 2013 to 2022. The target population was 180 respondents. Using Taro Yamane's (1967) formulas, a sample size of 124 respondents was determined and distributed proportionately using Neyman's allocation formula. Data were gathered using structured questionnaires and an interview schedule. Using Cronbach's alpha coefficient, it was determined if the instrument satisfied the 0.7 or higher requirement. The study found that regular progress reviews significantly contribute to effective stakeholder engagement in road infrastructure projects. The application of the balanced scorecard in monitoring and evaluating projects has a beneficial impact on multiple dimensions of project management. The use of performance contracting was found to significantly influence the achievement of project goals and enhance individual staff performance. The study also found that project audits play a crucial role in identifying weaknesses in project management processes and recommending corrective actions. The study concludes that the effective implementation and utilization of monitoring and evaluation tools, progress reviews, balanced scorecards, performance contracting, and project audits, are crucial for enhancing the performance of road infrastructure projects. The study highlights how important it is to keep refining these methods and instruments in order to close the gaps and variations in stakeholder views that have been found. The results of the study support the adoption and improvement of monitoring and evaluation mechanisms as a top priority for the Kisii County Government and the construction industry in order to improve stakeholder trust, support project outcomes, and guarantee the county's road infrastructure is developed sustainably.

Authors: Hamza Sellak; B. Ouhbi; B. Frikh
Year: 2015

Renewable Energy (RE) field provides significant new challenges for research in Intelligent Decision Support Systems (IDSS) since decision-making process requires more intelligent algorithms and mechanisms that can solve complex problems involving a large number of stakeholders in an uncertainty, dynamic, and distributed environment. In this paper, we present an intelligent RE-DSS framework to facilitate the decision-making process for the planning and designing intelligent Renewable Energy Management Systems. The framework offers a widespread adoption of more intelligent components in classical RE-DSS that will eventually lead to more efficient decision-making in all levels of RE projects management.
INFLUENCE OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT FACTORS ON PROJECT SUCCESS, A CASE OF A CHILD CARE PROJECT IN VIHIGA COUNTY
Authors: Esther Agoi
Year: 2020

Project success forms a critical foundation for project management and any manager wants to deliver to their stakeholders the intended goals of the project. A project is said to be a success if it achieves all of the agreed project objectives. The purpose of this study was to establish the influence of project factors on the success of projects in county Governments in Kenya. The study used project planning, project execution, monitoring and control as the main independent variables on which it pegged its objectives. The study adopted four main theirs namely; organization theory, classical communication theory, thermostat model and the transformation flow value theory. It adopted a descriptive survey design and targeted project managers and supervisors of the selected project. The study used a sample of 52 respondents selected through a census. Questionnaires were the main data collection instruments. These instruments were pre-tested to ascertain whether they were valid and reliable. A coefficient of above 0.7 was achieved for all the study variables thereby making it reliable. The data was analyzed quantitatively and was presented in the form of descriptive and inferential statistics. The results showed that all the variables including project planning, project execution, project monitoring and project control positively influenced project success. The study recommended that management should incorporate stakeholders that will undertake the project to avoid rolling down already planned projects that may not do well in some regions. The management should also include expected risks in their project and give possible mitigation methods so that the contingence funds set aside for risks were estimated and allocated. Managers of different organizations which sponsor project should continually modify management aspects to improve performance of county government projects. Certain aspects of management should be addressed as a matter of policy, such as supervision of team members by the project managers to improve service delivery. Finally, national and county government has therefore, a duty to closely monitor all the projects from start to end.

Successful chronic disease project management, especially of multiyear initiatives using evidence-based interventions (EBIs), is of great importance to funders, health care decision makers, and researchers, particularly in light of limited funding. However, a gap in knowledge may exist regarding which attributes and skills are most desirable in a program manager to help him or her ensure successful implementation of EBIs. Although some literature examines the dynamics contributing to the success of community coalitions, public health leadership, and community health education, there is minimal literature exploring the significance of a program manager’s role in the conceptualization, implementation, and sustainability of initiatives to improve patient and community health. The authors present their experiences as participants in a large-scale asthma initiative implemented in priority communities, as well as results of a survey distributed among all personnel of the program sites. The survey aimed to assess the key skills and attributes, in addition to contextual factors, that contribute to the strength of a program manager overseeing EBIs in asthma initiatives. The results suggest that certain attributes and skills are desirable in recruiting and hiring of a program manager, especially when augmented by ongoing skill-building training, and can help ensure program and research success.

Infusion of ABET — Specified professional and academic content into off-campus work experiences via distance learning modules
Authors: Chris Plouff; Nael Barakat
Year: 2012

Educating engineering students on ABET-required professional and nontechnical skills is usually a challenging task. The related challenges include finding a balance between the content, the delivery format, the time of delivery, and location in the curriculum for this material. This paper presents details on a pilot project to deliver professional and academic content to engineering students via distance learning during required co-op semesters. Assessment of this experience to solve multiple challenges simultaneously is also presented. Students were educated on engineering ethics, engineering economics, and project management, which are readily applied in workplace settings. This pilot study was conducted during the winter 2011 semester and included six modules, targeting the level of the first co-op course. Twelve co-op students were carefully chosen as a controlled sample to participate in the study. This sample included a horizontal cross section representing all engineering programs, and a vertical cross section including students from each of the three co-op courses. Direct and indirect assessment methods were conducted to assess the project. Students' perceptions of their knowledge in the targeted topics were greater than their demonstrated knowledge. Direct assessment showed an increase in students' knowledge for all three topic areas.
A Conceptual Framework of the Alignment of the Project Management Office (PMO) with the Organizational Structure
Authors: Ramakrishna Ayyagari; R. Henry; Russell L. Purvis
Year: 2006

Despite the intensity of information technology investments, too many projects fail to meet their multiple objectives of time, cost, quality, scope and stakeholder expectations. Consequently, organizations are implementing project management offices (PMO) – an organizational unit that centralizes and coordinates the management of projects. While there is a growing interest in practice, there is a paucity of theory and research on PMO’s to guide practice in unlocking the potential benefits offered from such a structure. PMOs can operate on a continuum, from providing project management support functions in the form of training, software, standardized policies and templates, to the direct management and responsibility of achieving project objectives. In this research, a conceptual framework is developed using governance and organizational structures to examine the alignment of configuration dimensions or arrangements of the PMO needed to exploit the various potential features and benefits, as well as the potential costs (in terms of innovations) of such configurations. The implications for researchers and practitioners of the presented framework are also discussed.
An NFC-based Context Approach to Life Cycle Management of Construction Projects
Authors: Xiaoyu Zheng; Jie Shen
Year: 2018

The1 life cycle management of construction project acts as an important role in construction process, project maintenance, evaluation and safety warning. NFC (Near Field Communication) is a newly thrived technology in recent years. This technology has been installed on many kinds of mobile phone systems. Based on it, a new NFC-based context framework is presented for the life cycle management, and efficient support for interacting, mapping, and accessing the contexts of onsite construction process is provided. Moreover, a new model of construction project management (CPM) is derived for this system, and a description model for the context data management of life cycle of construction project is analysed and designed. A case study for diversion tunnel management is carried out to verify the brand-new framework for the life cycle management. The results show that it could provide efficient support for the context-aware CPM, and the work encourages a wider use of NFC-based context technology for improving current CPM process and exploring the innovative methods of these technology in CPM.
Coordination algorithms for managing large-scale projects

Year: 2020

В статье решается задача разработки двух алгоритмов координации при управлении крупномасштабными проектами. Первый алгоритм предназначен для выбора целесообразного способа координации при управлении рассматриваемыми проектами. Алгоритм строится исходя из тезиса о том, что, чем выше угроза срыва выполнения плана проектных работ, тем выше должна быть степень централизации управления проектом, и, чем в ниже эта угроза, тем менее централизованной должно быть управление проектом. При таком подходе, выбор целесообразного способа координации фактически сводится к оценке уровня угрозы. Учитывая, что понятие «уровень» носит качественный характер, его предложено характеризовать функцией принадлежности к градациям: «очень высокий», «высокий», «средний», «низкий» и «нулевой», а для оценки текущего уровня угроз использовать меру близости Хемминга, в которой в качестве эталона принят нулевой уровень угроз. Второй алгоритм предназначен для выбора оптимальных координирующих решений по критерию минимума отклонения проекта от заданного целевого состояния. Его новизна и оригинальность заключается в том, что в отличие от обычного оптимизационного подхода, он построен на сочетании методов полного перебора и линейного программирования. Это дало возможность корректно учесть то обстоятельство, что координирующие и проектные решения неразрывно связаны друг с другом.
 The article solves the problem of developing two coordination algorithms for managing large-scale projects. The first algorithm is designed to select the appropriate method of coordination when managing the projects under consideration. The algorithm is based on the thesis that the higher the threat of failure of the project plan, the higher the degree of centralization of project management should be, and the lower the threat, the less centralized the project management should be. With this approach, choosing the appropriate method of coordination actually comes down to assessing the threat level. Given that the concept of "level" is of a qualitative nature, it is proposed to characterize it by the function of belonging to gradations: "very high", "high", "medium"," low", and" zero", and to evaluate the current threat level, use the measure of hemming proximity, which uses the zero threat level as a reference. The second algorithm is designed to select optimal coordinating solutions based on the criterion of minimum deviation of the project from the specified target state. Its novelty and originality lies in the fact that, unlike the usual optimization approach, it is built on a combination of methods of full iteration and linear programming. This made it possible to correctly take into account the fact that coordinating and design solutions are inextricably linked with each other.

Authors: Rekha Singhal; Chetan Phalak
Year: 2017

Typically, applications are tested on small data size for both functional and non functional requirements. However, in production environment, the applications, having SQL queries, may experience performance violations due to increase in data volume. There is need to have tool which could test SQL query performance for large data sizes without elongating application testing phase. In this paper, we have presented a tool for estimating SQL query execution time for large data sizes without actually generating and loading the large volume of data. The model behind the working of the tool has been validated with TPC-H benchmarks and industry applications to predict within 10% average prediction error. The tool is built using underlying popular open source project CoDD with better project management and user interfaces.

Authors: Muhammad Azman; A. Mohamed; E. E. Odzaly
Year: 2020

The relationship between project manager and project delivery is obvious. The use of a project management method or standard like PMBOK and PRINCE2 remains very important for the success of the project. Several critical success and failure factors of a project were studied and one of the responsibilities in ensuring successful delivery lies in project manager. This paper includes reviews from 45 articles which discovered different styles, attributes and skills that justify good leadership in support of successful project delivery. The findings further supported by an interviewed data obtained from an industry which shows that leadership styles influence in achieving successful project delivery. In addition, shifting in styles is require to optimize the effectiveness of a leader thus increase in team performance in achieving successful project delivery. Finally, a conceptual model showing the relationship between leadership and project delivery was proposed.
