Abstract

This study analysed project management competency factors which contribute to project success in the construction industry in Gaborone, Botswana. Primary data was collected from 60 randomly sampled project managers from construction companies in Gaborone using a questionnaire. Data was analyzed using Microsoft Excel and presented in the form of graphs and tables. Findings revealed that clear goals of project, roles and responsibilities of project team, communications and consultations with stakeholders and compliance with the planned budget, time frame and performance criteria have a high impact on the success of a project. It was also concluded that experience of a project manager has significant influence on their performance thus contributing to the overall project success. Furthermore, despite the technical nature of the construction industry, management competency has become almost as equally as important as technical competency in the undertaking of projects.
