Abstract

This study investigates the effects of project management practices on the performance of the Ethiopian National Stadium. It identifies the challenges inherent in project management, particularly in the Ethiopian construction sector, where the alignment of scope, time, cost, and quality remains critical. The research employs a descriptive and explanatory design, focusing on a sample of 292 staff from various management levels involved in mega projects. Key findings reveal a significant correlation between the implementation of project management tools and project performance. Despite some positive practices in time and human resource management, deficiencies in quality, procurement, and risk management were noted. The study underscores the necessity for enhanced project management methodologies tailored to the Ethiopian context, emphasizing the importance of effective stakeholder engagement and communication for successful project outcomes. The results contribute valuable insights to the ongoing discourse on project management practices in developing countries, particularly in the context of large-scale infrastructure projects.
