The main objective of the research is to explore the project quality management practice in private banks of Ethiopia, find the potential gaps and put possible recommendations for those gaps. The empirical data were obtained from qualitative research methods and thematic analysis is used to analyze the raw data and generate a meaningful conclusion. Reliability and validity have also been taken into consideration. The result of this study indicates that those private banks do not have separate project quality management process which includes Plan Quality Management, Manage Quality, Control Quality. They perform it implicitly by integrating with other tasks.
