Summary: | 碩士 === 國立高雄科技大學 === 營建工程系 === 107 === Nowadays, the size of construction projects is larger than before, more divisions in professional fields cause complicated engineering interface management, and still project quality objectives must be achieved within a limited budget and time. The project management knowledge system promoted by the Project Management Institute (PMI) is very popular now, and so this research aims to investigate the extent of relevance of the PMI project management standard system to building construction projects in southern Taiwan. The study refers to an international project management journal paper entitled “Key project management practices affecting Singaporean firms’ project performance in China” and cites its list of practices for compiling 50 practices as factors influencing project performance that are used as the questions of a questionnaire in which the five-level scale is adopted for assessment of relevance. The survey is targeted at construction industry practitioners in southern Taiwan and the respondents make assessment of relevance to building construction in southern Taiwan based on their own experience. Summarization and analysis of the data collected from the respondents make use of descriptive statistics and t-tests. The results show ten project management practices with an average score higher than 4.5, of which four are the same as those from a previous research. Thus, it can be inferred that "adequacy of schedule control", "suppliers’ experience and capability", "project study before construction start", "adequacy of the communication form, frequency, and channel among team members" are the more important factors affecting project success.
