Project Management Practices and Their Influence on the Timely Completion of Infrastructure Projects in DPWH Pampanga 2nd District Engineering Office
Abstract
This study evaluates the effectiveness of project management practices and their direct influence on the timely completion of infrastructure projects at the DPWH Pampanga 2nd District Engineering Office. It is also the aim of this study to determine the specific levels of effectiveness across planning, execution, and monitoring phases, and identify the relationship between project management rigor and actual project timelines. Following a descriptive-quantitative research design, a structured survey questionnaire was utilized by this study to reveal perceptions among technical personnel regarding these management practices and project outcomes. The data collected was also analyzed to measure implementation levels and assess schedule adherence, efficiency, and excellence in project deliverables. Statistical tools, specifically weighted mean and Pearson’s correlation coefficient, were used to analyze the data. Results showed that monitoring and control practices achieved the highest level of perceived effectiveness with a mean score of 3.41, while a strong positive significant relationship (r = 0.7335) was attained between overall management rigor and timely completion. Moreover, data collected showed that Right-of-Way (ROW) coordination issues and daily monitoring of contractor equipment deployment were among the primary challenges encountered. Findings suggest that inadequate use of modern automated tracking tools and a reliance on traditional manual methods hinder maximizing operational efficiency and maximizing timely delivery across infrastructure projects.
