Abstract
The main purpose of the study was to identify and evaluate the challenges encountered through
project management practices in Rehabilitation Service for the Deaf Association (RSDA). The
study aims to point out these difficulties and thus improve the project management practice in
order to benefit from the findings. A descriptive research method is used in order to achieve the
intended purpose of the study. Closed-end and Open-end questionnaire were used for the purpose
of collecting required data for the study. From 230 target population of the study in the inclusive
education project and its stakeholders, I took 70 sample size by using the solving formula. n =
N/1+N (e) 2. Out of 70, 68 questionnaires were collected by distributing the questionnaire to
those eight groups by purposive sampling method. The data were analyzed using software
Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS V.22) to generate mean, frequencies, standard
deviation and percentages of the statics.
A project scope management challenge is a challenge in RSDAs project management practice.
This indicates that the RSDA Project Management is to work with special emphasis on this. On
the other seven factors, however, good project management experience was evident. In addition
to that, the study suggested that emphasis should be given to items like Item `` the project office
does not use all the options to make the budget source secure and sustainable`` because the
respondents have no confidence on the sustainability of the project. Success factors are inputs for
the management system that lead directly or indirectly to the success of the project.
