description |
In recent decades, the emphasis on project management activities has
expanded substantially, perceived as a method to enhance project performance. Such
rapid evolution has inevitably led to two opposing points of view, with some
researchers found the usual methods of prefixed rules and regulations to be a
bureaucratisation of management styles in the Weberian tradition that improves
project performance. In contrast, other scholars have a different view, believing that
the bureaucratisation of project management is flawed and can negatively impact the
performance of project managers. The two rising differences of opinion have led to
the development of project management practices becoming an exciting field for
investigation and offers diverse views as to whether project management practices
should be fluid or comply with specific structured disciplines. This thesis aims to
explores how the bureaucratisation of codified project management practices are
relevant to project performance, with a specific investigation of the construction and
development industries in Malaysia. The competency components of the codified
project management practices are taken from the summary of the five well-known
project management institutions where 10 competency components been chosen. The
participants in this study are project managers in Malaysia's construction and
development industries. A total of 210 questionnaires were distributed, and 194
questionnaires were received. The notable finding is that all the 10 competency
components display bureaucracy with formalisation of five competency components
(PSM, PTM, PCM, PQM & PCOMM) and centralisation of another set of five
competency components (PTM, PCM, PQM, PHRM & PRM) showing a significant,
and positive relationship to project performance. |
