| dc.description.abstract | The study aimed at examining the relationship among project transparency, project accountability, and project success in KCCA. The study employed a cross-sectional survey design with a quantitative approach. Out of the 46 KCCA Infrastructure and Institutional Capacity Projects, 44 of them were included in the study through the application of a simple random sampling technique that was supported with a lottery approach. Primary data was collected from project managers, supervisors, and two lower cadre project staff from each and every project using a closed-ended survey questionnaire that was anchored on a five-point Likert scale. The data was analysed using SPSS software version 25. The demographic characteristics were analysed using descriptive statistics, while relationships according to the study objectives were analysed using inferential statistics that included correlations and regressions. The findings from correlation analysis indicated that project transparency has a significant positive association with project success. On the other hand, project accountability also has a significant positive association with project success. The findings from the regression analysis found that project accountability is a significant positive predictor of project success, while project transparency is an insignificant positive predictor of project success. The study recommends that KCCA infrastructure and institutional capacity projects ensure proper accountability through accountability and enforcement whenever a project is implemented. In regard to policy, KCCA policy makers should design policies and implement them. For instance, a policy on project accountability, especially ensuring that project managers and staff are answerable in regard to the ongoing projects, especially where there is a mess, and also enforces them to abide by the stipulated roles and regulations governing the project operations. This will enhance project success. | |
