Abstract

This research investigates the impact of the project management office functions on project success in Saudi Arabia. A comprehensive literature review is conducted to study different project management functions and project success measures. The data collected on a validated list of 19 project management office functions and 14 project success measures obtained from the literature. The analyses have two parts, one to compare the project performance of organizations that have PMO to those who do not have, using excel sheets by averaging the responses for each measure. The second part is to study the relationship between PMO functions and project success measures using structural equation modeling SEM in SMARTPLS-S software. Sixteen hypotheses were generated for analyses in SEM and five of these hypotheses were validated while the remaining 11 could not be validated. The results reported that PMO organizational learning functions directly impact project outcomes, while functions of project monitoring and controlling partially impacts customer satisfaction.

探索沙特阿拉伯项目型组织中项目管理办公室的影响

本研究调查了沙特阿拉伯项目管理办公室功能对项目成功的影响。本文对不同的项目管理职能和项目成功衡量标准进行了全面的文献综述。从文献中获得的19个项目管理办公室功能和14个项目成功措施的有效列表收集的数据。分析有两个部分，一个是比较有项目管理办公室的组织和没有项目管理办公室的组织的项目绩效，使用excel表格平均每个测量的响应。第二部分是利用结构方程建模SEM在SMARTPLS-S软件中研究PMO功能与项目成功测度之间的关系。在SEM分析中产生了16个假设，其中5个假设被验证，其余11个无法被验证。结果表明，项目管理办公室组织学习功能直接影响项目成果，项目监控功能部分影响客户满意度。
