- W11137712 abstract "The purpose of this thesis is to present an account of the research conducted in thefield of project (PM). The broad problem area is the recurring projectoverrun problem. The three issues of concern are (1) the perceptions of a project, PMand their success, (2) the managerial implications of project execution problems, and(3) the verification of Baker's and Turner's theories of project success.The research made use of preliminary studies (unstructured interviews, case study,pilot study and structured interviews) to identify, refine and focus the issues forresearch. Survey research is used to derive the conclusive evidences in the Engineeringand Construction (EC) industries in Malaysia.By the use of unstructured interviews, the research identified 28 factors believed tohave caused project overrun problems. Among the 28 are four that have never beenidentified before by previous researchers. In a way, the research showed thatunstructured interview is a useful methodology in identifying new ideas.The four new factors identified are the perceptions of individuals. The perceptionsmanifested in statements such as ''what constitute project success may vary, inheritedproblems from earlier phases, management does not care and projects arecompleted anyway.The influence and impacts of the ambiguities surrounding a project, PM and theirsuccess, on project performance could not have come to light but for the literaturesurvey and unstructured interviews conducted.In the case study conducted, a list of 135 project execution problems of different typeand complexity were identified. The managerial implications in terms of Henri Fayol'smanagement function were studied. The pilot study and structured interviews helped inconfirming the issues for investigation.The basic survey research then focused on the issues discovered in the exploratorystudies for further investigation. Based on the preliminary studies theoreticalframeworks and 10 hypotheses were formulated for testing." @default.
