| dc.description.abstract | The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of project monitoring and controlling practice on project success in information network security agency (INSA). To achieve the objectives of the study the researcher adopted both Primary and Secondary data sources; Quantitative and Qualitative research approaches and Descriptive and Explanatory research design. The target population of the study were 115 employees of the agency who took a role in undertaking commercial software development projects. Purposive sampling technique was used to select only commercial software development projects undertaken in the past five years and a stratified sampling technique was employed to select respondents from different functional teams thus the commercial software development project always comprises. While The quantitative data was analysed using descriptive, correlation and regression analysis using SPSS version 23.0, The qualitative data was analysed, described, and interpreted in the form of statement. The major findings of the study revealed that there is good project monitoring and controlling practice in the organization, yet relatively there is weak project change control practice. Results also revealed that Pearson correlation between project progress tracking, project progress reporting, project change control and project documentation practice were strongly positive with project success. Regression results show that Among all the project monitoring and controlling practices, project change control has relatively the highest influence on the project success and 60.6% of changes in the project success attributed to the combined effect of project Progress tracking, project progress reporting, project change control, and project documentation. From this, the study concludes that the overall project monitoring and controlling practice have a strong impact on project success. This means the practice of project monitoring and controlling with a high level of effectiveness yields a higher level of project success. To be more successful in projects, the study recommends that the organization must focus on enhancing project monitoring and controlling practice, especially on project change control areas as they have the highest impact on project success, yet they are practiced poorly in the organization. | en_US |
