Abstract

There are many factors that affect project outcomes. Communication is the one of key factors of project success, as it plays a significant role in project planning and executing. Communication not only provides information to other people, but it also can indicate the success or failure of a project. This paper introduces communication and how it relates to project planning, executing, and how it influences the project. It is clear that more research can be performed on the most current variables, concepts, and models within project management. The absence of such research can be detrimental to the field. This paper studies the variables, their concepts, and models in project management and procedures. As a result, an assessment model is created that can greatly contribute to the engineering field. This model can ensure more successful projects and better communication within teams. This study's findings and discussion contribute to the fields of industrial engineering, engineering management, and project management.

Research Objective

There is a research gap on these variables, their concepts, and models in project management and performance, so this study will fill this research gap. Furthermore, elements and applications of these variables will be studied to find how they relate or differ. As a result, a general outline will encompass the best practices to use for any business sectors. The study also answers frequently asked questions about these variables, concepts, and models. Lastly, future research can use these findings to perform more in depth analyses.

Managerial Relevance

Decision-making is an important role for engineering managers, especially in the future of project management and engineering. This study addresses this role and how it will change in the future for engineering management. Also, this study addresses why engineering managers must maintain accurate decision-making skills in their operations and project management lifecycle. With this study's conclusions, the engineering management practitioner at any level can learn to more effectively utilize these variables, concepts, and models.

Originality

Though this paper utilizes other studies with the same hypothesis, there are different research perspectives that are used to find new ways of addressing prominent issues. This study features real-life examples for practitioners to easily apply these concepts to real situations. Lastly, this research will prove how vital it is to practice these variables, their concepts, and models in any business.
