The Influence of Project Management Implementation on Construction Project Success: Evidence from the BRI Bank Branch Construction Project in Malang, Indonesia
Keywords:

Effective project management practices are critical determinants of construction project success, particularly in complex infrastructure environments characterized by uncertainty and multiple stakeholders. This study examines the influence of planning, organizing, leadership, and resource management on construction project success in the BRI Bank Branch development project in Indonesia. A quantitative research design was employed using survey data from 30 project stakeholders. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability testing, Pearson correlation, multiple linear regression, and hypothesis testing (t-test and F-test). The results indicate that project management functions simultaneously explain 31% of the variance in project success (R² = 0.310, p < .05). Organizing emerged as the most dominant variable (18.4%), followed by leadership, resource management, and planning. The findings confirm that structured coordination mechanisms and clear role allocation significantly enhance project outcomes. This research contributes to the growing body of literature emphasizing managerial capability as a strategic driver of construction performance in emerging economies.
