Abstract:

The study examined the impact of computer-based project management model on building project performance in Enugu Metropolis. Specifically, the study sought to: Examine the impact of Civilsoft computer-based project management software on quality reinforcement of building project in Enugu Metropolis and evaluate the impact of Planswift computer-based project management software on avoidance of cost-overrun of building project in Enugu Metropolis. Research design was descriptive survey research design. The sample size of 134 respondents was drawn from 202 construction operators (Architects, Quantity surveyors, civil Engineers, Builders) of the selected indigenous construction companies in Enugu metropolis namely: Marlum Nigeria Limited, Project Technical Inc, New Idea Construction Company and Achimore Nigeria Limited. Research questions of the study were answered using mean score and standard deviation. The hypotheses stated were tested using single regression analysis. The empirical results showed that civilsoft computer-based project management software has significant impact on quality reinforcement of building project in Enugu Metropolis (t-statistic =3.692; P-value (0.000) < Sig-value (0.05) and planswift computer-based project management software has significant impact on avoidance of cost-overrun of building project in Enugu Metropolis (t-statistic = 5.748; P-value (0.000) < Sig-value (0.05). The study recommended that the use computer-based project management software have the following impacts on the project success: Improves the quality of work, saves time, makes complex tasks easier to perform, facilitates decision making, savings in operating costs.
