Abstract

This research delves into the transformative impact of project management information system on project completion in selected construction companies in Lagos State, exploring its impact on completion time, resource availability, and stakeholder satisfaction. A survey study plan was utilizing a standardized questionnaire distributed to project managers of 25 selected construction companies. The study empirically examines three hypotheses: the relationship between user skill and knowledge and completion time, the relationship between quality of information and availability of resources, and the substantial impact of system quality on stakeholder satisfaction. The research instrument reliability was test by applying Cronbach Alpha threshold. Employing rigorous statistical analyses, the findings reveal positive correlations in each hypothesis, underscoring the integral role of project management information system in shaping organizational dynamics. Employees' heightened awareness of information system emerges as a catalyst for improved project completion, while information quality proves instrumental in optimizing resource availability. Moreover, the study underscores the consequence of Project Management Information Systems (PMIS) in cultivating a culture of efficiency and continuous improvement within construction companies. These findings provide valuable empirical evidence to the disciplinary framework and propose realistic recommendations for construction firms aiming to harness PMIS for successful project completion and enhanced operational effectiveness.
