Abstract
This work was guided by three specific objectives namely, to examine the relationship between budget management and organizational performance, to examine the relationship between internal controls and organizational performance, and to examine the joint relationship of budget management and internal controls on organizational performance. The study was conducted using a cross sectional design which involved a quantitative approach. Close-ended self-administered questionnaires were used for the purpose of data collection. The sample for the study included 144 employees from the selected parastatals in Uganda. A response rate of 79.6 % was registered. The correlation results showed positive relationships between the examined variables. There was a positive relationship between budget management and organizational performance and there was also a positive relationship between internal controls and organizational performance. The regression results also found the two independent variables, and jointly, were statistically significant predictors of organizational performance explaining 49.5 % variance. The study has contributed in providing insight on the drivers of organizational performance among parastatals in Uganda. Finally, further research is needed to examine the other factors that promote organizational performance.
