Abstract:
Construction projects are commonly admitted as successful when they are completed on time,
within budget, and in line with quality. While large amounts of time and resources are devoted to
selecting and designing projects, it remains of vital importance that projects be effectively
managed to achieve their objectives. Nowadays it is almost unable to meet project constraints
without the application of technologies. Information and communication technology offers
adequate tools to support project tasks, where PMS is one of those tools. The purpose of the
study was to establish the influence of PMS on the construction project Success: a study of
construction company Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The target population data was obtained from
construction firms in Addis Ababa registered in the Ministry of Urban Development and
Construction under categories of grade one contractors; purposive sampling was adopted to
select the sample from the target population. Descriptive analysis, Correlations and econometric
analysis (using ordered logistic regression model) were performed to analyze the collected data
and establish the relationship between the dependent and independent variables using the SPSS
software. The results of all descriptive, correlation, ordered logistic analysis were consistent and
showed that all four explanatory variables have a significant positive effect and determinant of
construction projects success. Accordingly, the application of PMS is advantageous for the
success of construction projects with respect to time, budget and quality constraints of the
project. The study recommends that construction companies should expand the use of PMS in
planning and managing the upcoming projects by assigning well trained users/project managers
