| Summary: | Success in a construction project is indicated by the performance in timeliness, cost, quality
and stakeholder’s satisfaction. Construction projects in Malaysia bears a high risk of being
over budget and completed way past due. Thus, identifying the most influential factor
towards a successful implementation of construction projects is crucial. Although a number
of factors have been found to potentially influence the success of a construction project, the
correlation between these aspects has not been extensively investigated. This research
investigates the relationship between six (6)1factors; top1management1support level,
project management maturity, realistic schedule and budgeting, clear1project goal definition,
project1team competency, and risk1management. The results demonstrated the factors
which has the most influence on Malaysian construction projects' success. Purposive and
non-proportionate quota sampling was adopted to gather 224 samples from various project
managers and leaders working in construction companies with CIDB G7 grade throughout
Malaysia. To gather quantitative data, a questionnaire was developed by modifying previous
research' questionnaires, and its validity and reliability were assessed using SmartPLS
(SEM). The results show that defining clear goals, realistic scheduling and budgeting and
project management maturity has the most impact towards project performance success in
Malaysian construction industry. This study has made a significant theoretical contribution
to the larger body of knowledge by establishing the most influence factors that contributed
to project success. Furthermore, the outcome from this study shall contribute to construction
companies, project management bodies, practicing project managers, and project analyst
involved in the Malaysian construction industry. |
