    (Addis Ababa University, 2018-11-05) Wendafrash, Henok; Chane, Abraraw(PhD)
    Best performing project completes the projects in estimated time, estimated cost and stated quality. But different projects are failed to meet these performance parameters. Condominium projects in Addis Ababa are among these projects that fail to meet stated quality, scheduled time, and cost estimations. This study was conducted with an objective of identifying factors affecting the performance of condominium projects in Addis Ababa by using two projects that are under construction. Descriptive research design was implemented to identify these factors. Data was collected through structured questionnaire from 133 contractors and 58 consultants of the projects. Descriptive analysis such as mean, frequencies, charts and factors analysis were used to analyze the data and the analysis was conducted by using SPSS version 23. This study has identified that project characteristics, project procedures, project management actions and external environments have impact on performance of the projects. Therefore, this study recommends awareness creation for the contractors, consultants and associations that supply construction material. The client is recommended to reduce payment delays to the contractor. The consultants are recommended to make stronger follow up on the projects. To reduce the effects of material cost escalation, the client is recommended to store most important materials. Contractors are recommended to reduce profit margin and improve employee performance.
