performance. This shows that the current world
belong to those projects which are able to develop
faster than their competitors offering the same goods
and services. The organizational modeling of the
future is a learning organization which is focusing at
creating and gaining knowledge for improved
performance and building a competitive edge (Singh
and Saldanha, 2013). As indicated by Hubbard
(2010), project modeling is a critical factor to project
performance. In Jordan it is accounted for that poor
project performance is because of poor financing by
the legislature. Consequently, impacts of project
modeling on effective completion of construction
projects are the worry of the Jordan government.
The formal structures are moderate, financing takes
edges of endorsement, and gradualness in receiving
present day advancements.
Brazil is accounted for to have adequate support of
HR that can offer help in construction industry.
Modeling is a pivotal component in producing future
development and flourishing projects. Construction
designing in Brazil has contributed colossally to
fruitful completion of thousands of construction
projects. Subsequently, the productive conveyance
of construction projects relies upon how great labor
is keeping up convenient completion of construction
projections. It is essential to prepare, create and keep
up quality workforce in order to have quality project
performance (Loosemore et al., 2003) In China is
taken as the best in construction of project in the
world. The advancement of construction modeling
has driven China to have the best condition of
construction projects in the world. Dominant part of
the construction projects are built and completed
within the required period. The records management
limit is facilitating by having appropriate models
and framework. The advancement is the helpful
segment in usage of another or fundamentally
enhanced thought, great, administration, process or
practice that is planned to be valuable. Dodds (2007)
indicated that strategic modeling is helping China to
have a big role in projects constructions works in a
much-enhanced manner.
In Africa, during the last fifty years the construction
industry has been heavily criticized for its
performance and productivity in relation to other
industries. With the turn of the new millennium, it
appears that the construction industry is going
through an intense period of introspection which is
exacerbated by increased technological and social
change. These changes are altering the tempo of the
environment within which construction operates. In
a related study, Oyegbile et al., (2012) revealed that
over the last 10 years, the incidence of building
collapse in Nigeria has become so alarming and does
Natome and Muchelule (2018)
not show any sign of abating. Agbenyega (2014)
also states that a section of the Methodist Church
building under construction at Sakaman, a suburb of
Accra had collapsed. Subsequently, a two storey
building was also reported to have collapsed at
“Asene Dzornshie” near Old Accra or Bukom
Square, while another three-storey structure also
collapsed in the Ashanti Regional town of Obuasi.
In Kenya, there are many construction projects that
fail in performance. In addition, performance
measurement systems are not effective or efficient
to overcome this problem. Construction projects
performance problem appears in many aspects in the
Kenya. There are many constructed projects that fail
in time performance, others fail in cost performance
and others fail in other performance factors. In 2009
there were many projects which finished with poor
performance because of many evidential reasons
such as: obstacles by client, non-availability of
materials, road closure, amendment of the design
and drawing, additional works, waiting the
decision, handing over, variation order amendments
in Bill of Quantity (B.O.Q) and delay of receiving
drawings (Ngugi, 2017).
There are other factors for problems of performance
in Kenya such as project management, coordination
between participants, monitoring, and feedback and
leadership skills. In addition, political, economic
and cultural issues are three important indicators
related to failures of projects' performance in the
Kenya. The Performance is related to many topics
and factors such as time, cost, quality, client
satisfaction; productivity and safety. Construction
industry in the Kenya suffers from many problems
and complex issues in performance (Muchungu,
2012). Work on providing construction services in
Uasin Gishu has made considerable progress since
the ministry of transport assumed responsibility for
them, but the construction companies have had to
build from a low base, including a huge backlog of
rehabilitation and development work, few
institutions, and very little funding. So, they have
had to work in every difficult physical, social,
political, economic and institutional circumstance.
For a number of reasons, the performance of
construction projects has not been as impressive,
fundamentally because of the government failure to
establish a coherent institutional and policy
framework (Kagiri, 2015).
Statement of the Problem
A lot of construction projects in Kenya do not get
completed in time or totally not completed or poorly
done. According to Kenya Rural Roads Authority,
(2013) there have been several projects which were
not completed by the end of the required period. In

2009 Kenyan officials estimated that 65% of
Kenya’s buildings fail to meet code standards.
Between 2006 and 2014, seventeen buildings
spontaneously collapsed in Kenya alone, and caused
eighty-four deaths and more than 290 injuries
(Fernandez, 2014). This is because structural defects
are frequently identified too late, often after
catastrophic collapse. Therefore these indicate poor
performance of construction projects in Kenya.
According to Ministry of Public Works, most of the
buildings, bridges collapse and roads having boodles
are due to poor supervision, poor construction
procedures and poor inspection (MOPW Report,
2006). This has led to either stalled or failed projects.
Similarly, for the few projects that get completed,
they are associated with; scope creep, cost overruns,
poor workmanship or project time delays (Navon,
2005). Consequently, arising from the creation of
“white elephant” projects, huge resources are
wasted, business opportunities lost, customers get
dissatisfied and the overall development is retarded
among others. Several studies have been done on
Kenyan construction projects performance.
Gichunge (2000) did research on risk management
in the building industry in Kenya; an analysis of time
and cost risks. Talukhaba (1999) did an investigation
into factors causing construction project delays in
Kenya. Kimemia (2015) did a study on the
determinants of project delays in the construction
industry in Kenya; the case of selected road projects
implemented by Kenya National Highways
Authority in Kenya’s Coast region. Musyoka (2012)
researched on success of capital projects in Kenya.
However, none of the studies has dealt with the
construction projects performance by utilizing the
BIM technology which presents a knowledge gap.
This study therefore sought to fill the gap by
investigating the influence of building information
modelling on Construction Projects Performance

2.0 Literature Review
Technology Acceptance Model
Technology acceptance model (TAM) was
formulated by Richard Bagozzi, Fred Davis and Paul
Warshaw in 1980’s. It explains the factors that
influence the decision about how and when users
will use a new technology – which include: 1)
Perceived Usefulness (PU) which was defined by
Fred Davis as “the degree to which a person believes
that using a particular system would enhance his or
her job performance; 2) Perceived ease-of-use
(PEOU) which was defined by Davis as “the degree
to which a person believes that using a particular
system would be free from effort (Davis, 1989).
Assumption of the theory states that because new
technologies such as personal computers are
complex and an element of uncertainty exists in the
minds of decision makers with respect to the
successful adoption of them, people form attitudes
and intentions toward trying to learn to use the new
technology prior to initiating efforts directed at
using. Attitudes towards usage and intentions to use
may be ill-formed or lacking in conviction or else
may occur only after preliminary strivings to learn
to use the technology evolve. Thus, actual usage
may not be a direct or immediate consequence of
such attitudes and intentions.
factors outside an individual such as training,
experience and system quality affects the two factors
PU and PEOU which influence the users’ attitude

towards the use of a given technology and its
ultimate use. The main external factors that are
usually manifested are social factors, cultural factors
and political factors. Social factors include
language, skills and facilitating conditions. Political
factors are mainly the impact of using technology in
politics and political crisis. The attitude to use is
concerned with the user’s evaluation of the
desirability of employing a particular information
system application.
Behavioural intention is the measure of the
likelihood of a person employing the application
(Surendran, 2012). Dr. Mohamed Al Haderi noted
that other information quality affects user’s intention
to adopt the technology especially after its
usefulness has been established and also established
a positive effect that government and top
management support has on the intentional behavior
throughout the positive effect on perceived
usefulness and ease of use (Al-Haderi, 2014).
Institutional factors refer to the aspects within the
organization related to work and the instrument to
facilitate in the accomplishment of the work. For
example, organizational support and rewards
influence workers’ beliefs in using technology to
accomplish the work (Lewis, Agarwal, &
Sambamurthy, 2003). The model was used to
explain the first objective which sought to explain
effect of records management on construction
projects coordination.
Theory of Constraints
The theory of constraints (TOC) was introduced by
Eliyahu Goldratt in 1984. The theory of constraints
developed a revolutionary method for production
scheduling which was in stark contrast to accepted
methods available at the time, such as MRP. The
theory of constraints (TOC) adopts the common
idiom "A chain is no stronger than its weakest link"
as a new management paradigm. Assumptions of
The theory of constraints asserts that every complex
systems and processes, are made up of interrelated
activities and one among the activities might pose a
constraint to the entire system, which becomes the
weakest link in the chain.
Natome and Muchelule (2018)
Critics of the theory of constraints argue that the
processes and organizations are vulnerable because
the weakest person or part can always damage or
break them or at least adversely affect the outcome.
In the third revised edition, Goldratt (2004) further
stated that the analytic approach with TOC comes
from the contention that any manageable system is
limited in achieving more of its goals by a minimal
number of constraints and that there is always at
least one constraint (Goldratt E. M., 2004). Hence
the TOC process seeks to identify the constraint and
restructure the rest of the organization around it.
Goldratt and Fox (1986) state that the secret to
success lies in managing these constraints and the
system as it interacts with these constraints, to get
the best out of the whole system (Goldratt & Fox,
1986).
Further critic show that the theory of constraints
(TOC) is a management philosophy that has been
effectively applied to Manufacturing processes and
procedures to improve Organizational effectiveness.
Klein and De Bruine (1995) in their study noted that
TOC had developed rapidly regarding both
methodology and area of applications. In the field of
project management, most of the work is carried out
in the application of Logistics Paradigm. The
methodology used in the project management is
critical chain project management to find the critical
chain and to find the project buffers and the feeding
buffers. Theory of constraints proposes a
methodology to detect and limit or eliminate the
influence posed by a constraint to a goal. The 5 steps
model include: constraint identification, decision on
constraint exploitation, subordinate everything else,
constraint elevation (constraint elimination) and
back to the first step (constraint identification)
(Wilkinson, 2013). Poor estimation of cost, time and
related resources negatively affects project success.
Thus, an effective project estimation tool to
undertake prediction is required, for instance poor
estimation in infrastructural construction project can
cause delays, emerging from project complexity,
construction and technology methods used and
related resources inefficiency (Elbeltagi, Hosny,
Dawood, & Elhakeem, 2014).

Figure 1.2 Theory of Constraints
The managers make three decisions when dealing
with constraints: What to change? What to change to
and how to cause the change? The TOC logical
thinking process has evolved to answer these generic
questions. Past studies have shown that it is often
managerial policies that most often the main
constraint and the thinking process also helps in
these situations. However, critiques to the this
theory have highlighted a major challenge, whereby
one might be working to reduce the effect of a
constraint or to eliminate it only to find that it was
caused by another constraining factor or the
constraint is not directly related to the existing
problem. This might lead to resource wastage on
factors that do not contribute towards project
success. It has also been criticized for its focus on
short-term goals as opposed to long term goals, in
that it only evaluates what is happening currently.

Conceptual Framework
Young (2009) defines a conceptual framework as a
diagrammatical representation that shows the
relationship between dependent variable and
independent variables. According to Sekaran (2010)
a conceptual framework is a systematically
organized, described and detailed model that
facilitates the conceptualization of the relationship
between the factors identified in a study (Sekaran,
2010). The dependent variable for this study was

construction project life-cycle processes must be
managed in a more effective and predictable way to
meet project stakeholders’ needs. However, there is
increasing concern about whether know-how
effectively improves understanding of underlying
theories of project management processes for
construction organizations and their project
managers. Project planning and scheduling are
considered as key and challenging tools in
controlling and monitoring project performance, but
many worldwide construction projects appear to
give insufficient attention to effective management
and definition of project planning, including
preplanning stages. Indeed, some planning issues
have been completely overlooked, resulting in
unsuccessful project performance.
There is a lack of knowledge of, and understanding
about, the significance of applications of project
planning and scheduling theory in construction
projects. Thus, improving such knowledge should be
incorporated with new management strategies or
tools to improve organizational learning and
integration in the context of project planning and
scheduling. This implies a need to assess project
stakeholders’ understanding on the application of
project planning and scheduling theories to practice.
The main aim was to study and describe project
stakeholders’ perspectives regarding a set of
identified criteria comprising aspects assumed to be
significant in successful project planning and
scheduling. The main research question was
developed as follows: What level of understanding
do project stakeholders have about the application of
project planning and scheduling theories in practices
of construction projects? This key question is
divided into a number of specific questions
concerned with various aspects of project planning
and scheduling.
Three different questionnaire surveys were
considered and designed in order to collect and
analyze data relevant to the empirical studies
presented and discussed under the scope of this
thesis. The study context is Oman. The thesis is
based on a summary of five appended papers, of
which four represent empirical survey studies. The
results form the basis of discussions and reflections,
and the four key factors identified are: highlighting
management tools needed to improve organizational
knowledge and understanding of project planning
theories and methods; paying particular
consideration to the significant factors (enablers and
barriers) impacting project planning and scheduling;
identifying project management roles and
organizational behaviour in planning and
scheduling; and increasing project stakeholders’
Natome and Muchelule (2018)
awareness of front-end planning for a more
successful project execution.
Shamp (2017) examined scheduling Strategies for
Construction Project Managers toward on Time
Delivery. The study found that construction
management projects involve complex, dynamic
environments resulting in uncertainty and risk,
compounded by demanding time constraints.
Research indicated project managers have struggled
to identify best practices for scheduling construction
projects via critical path methodologies while
searching for tools to increase timely job
completions and budget profits. The purpose of this
single case study was to explore the strategies that
construction project managers used to manage
scheduled construction project delivery on time. The
constructivist philosophical worldview was used as
the framework for this study. Data were collected
from semi structured interviews from 7 project
managers from 5 different construction companies
selected via purposive sampling throughout Florida.
All project managers had at least 15 years of
experience and multiple construction projects with
managing scheduled project deliveries. Three
themes emerged through thematic analysis: project,
time delay, and cost. A construction project can have
many variables that project managers cannot control
such as the issue of on-time scheduling.
Project managers identified that a project could be
within the budget or cost set for the project and still
be on time and go over budget or be within budget
and not meet schedule. No broad support was found
for agile project management, and no confirmation
could be made that principles of philosophical
theories were critical for project success.
Implications for a positive social change result in
creating new jobs during and after construction,
bringing new individuals to neighborhoods, schools,
and area businesses. Negendahl (2015) stated that
the schedule is usually not dynamically linked back
to the building design. It relies on those who created
the schedule, through analysis of the building
design, to make any changes or updates to the
schedule, if and when the design changes. This is
perhaps one of the more significant gaps in the
traditional process that is bridged through the use of
BIM. Ultimately, successful organisations were able
to closely manage their use of increasingly scarce
and expensive resources; demonstrating greater
value for money by reducing costs and meeting
environmental objectives. BIM is not essential to
improving a project’s resource efficiency.
Sfrent and Pop (2015) examined asymptotic
scheduling for many task computing in big data
platforms. Traditional scheduling methods rely on a
few people familiar with the tasks to be performed

to make the schedule. These members of the project
team determine how long each task should take to
complete, and in what order they need to be
completed. They must also include any other
associated logic or precedence between the tasks. As
technology has developed over time, this scheduling
process has been transformed from an all-paper
process to one involving scheduling software, not

previously.
their natural setting. This research design was also
useful in management decision making. It involved
acquiring information about a certain segment of the
population and getting information on their
characteristics, opinions or attitudes (Orodho, 2003).
Churchill and Brown (2004) also observed that
descriptive research design is appropriate where the
study sought to describe the characteristics of certain
groups, estimated the proportion of people who have
certain characteristics and make predictions.

honest and on target (Denscombe 2003). Before
using a research instrument it is important to ensure
that it has some validity.
Reliability
According to Orodho, (2009), defined reliability as
a measure of the degree to which a research
instrument yields consistent results or data after
repeated trials. According to Pallant (2011) when
using the Cronbach‘s Alpha value to test reliability,
a value above 0.7 is considered acceptable; however,
a value above 0.8 is preferable. This method requires
neither the splitting of items into halves nor the
multiple administrations of instruments. The internal
consistency method provides a unique estimate of
reliability for the given test administration. Before
the instruments are used for collecting data, a pilot
study was conducted in Nandi County Government.
The respondents to be used for piloting will not take
part in the study. Once the questionnaires are
constructed, they were tried out in the field.
Data Processing and Analysis
Data collected was prepared for analysis by editing,
coding, classification and tabulation of data before
analysis. Data analysis is a systematic process of
transcribing, collating, editing, coding and reporting
the data in a manner that makes it sensible and
accessible to the reader and researcher for the
purposes of interpretation and discussion (Jwan &
Ong'ondo, 2011). The data collected was analysed
by both descriptive and inferential statistics.
Descriptive statistics refers to the use of percentages,
frequencies, mean, standard deviations and variance
whereas the inferential statistics involves the use of
Pearson product moment, correlation coefficient and
multiple regression analysis (Cooper & Schindler,
2011).
Multiple regression analysis is a measure of the
ability of independent variable(s) to predict an
outcome of a dependent variable where there is a
linear relationship between them. In this study
regression analysis was done to establish whether
independent variables predict the dependent
variable. The R square, t-tests and F-tests and

4.0 Research Findings and Discussion
Response Rate
Response rate is the number of people who answered
the survey divided by the number of people in the
sample (Nulty, 2008). A total of 197 questionnaires
were issued out and only 175 were returned. This
represented a response rate of 88.8%. This response
rate was adequate for data analysis and conforms to
Mugenda and Mugenda (2003) stipulation that a
response rate of 70% and over was adequate. The 22
questionnaires were accounted by those respondents
who never returned the distributed questionnaires as
they were busy on their duties. Some questionnaires
were never filled completely hence were not used for
this study. The results were presented in Table 4.1.

Descriptive Findings and Discussions
This section presents descriptive analysis of the
study objectives. The statistical analyses concerning
the influence of building information modeling was
collected and the data were presented in five-point
Likert scale as follows; 5=strongly Agree 4= Agree
3= Undecided 2=Disagree 1=Strongly Disagree.
Therefore the results of the study are as shown.
Project Scheduling and Construction Projects
Performance
The study sought to determine the influence of
project scheduling on project performance in Uasin
Gishu County. Table 4.8 presents views of the
respondents on the descriptive statistics for project
scheduling. The findings as presented shows that
the respondents were in agreement that BIM project
scheduling helps the contractors attain the goals and
objectives of project completion (m= 4.03,
SD=1.404); Project scheduling function enhance the
resource allocation and simulation (M=3.82,
SD=1.542); Creation of project schedules using
BIM has proved value engineering in project
performance (m=4.12, SD=1.331) and that BIM
scheduling helps in task management of resources
and better tracking of project performance (m=4.03,
SD=1.266). The study shows that project scheduling
has a positive influence on project performance in
Uasin Gishu County. This means that a project
cannot work without a project plan because it is the
project plan which establishes the timelines,
delivery and availability of project resources,

22(12.6%) of the respondents had worked for a
period more than 5 years. The results indicate that
majority of the respondents have been working for a
period between 3 and 5 years and therefore they
understand the influence of building information

whether they be personnel, inventory or capital.
Therefore, proper project scheduling leads to an
increased project performance.
The study concurs with Negendahl (2015) who
stated that the schedule is usually not dynamically
linked back to the building design. It relies on those
who created the schedule, through analysis of the
building design, to make any changes or updates to
the schedule, if and when the design changes. This
is perhaps one of the more significant gaps in the
traditional process that is bridged through the use of
BIM. Ultimately, successful organisations were able
to closely manage their use of increasingly scarce
and expensive resources; demonstrating greater
value for money by reducing costs and meeting
environmental objectives. BIM is not essential to
improving a project’s resource efficiency.
The study findings also conceded with Sfrent and
Pop (2015) who examined asymptotic scheduling
for many task computing in big data platforms.
Traditional scheduling methods rely on a few people
familiar with the tasks to be performed to make the
schedule. These members of the project team
determine how long each task should take to
complete, and in what order they need to be
completed. They must also include any other
associated logic or precedence between the tasks. As
technology has developed over time, this scheduling
process has been transformed from an all-paper
process to one involving scheduling software, not
unlike other forms of documentation mentioned
previously.

Correlation Analysis Results
The research used Karl Pearson’s coefficient of
correlation to calculate the degree and direction of
the relationship between linear related variables.
The value of the coefficient of correlation (r) always
lies between -1 and +1 such as; r=+1, perfect
positive correlation. r=-1, perfect negative
correlation. r=0, no correlation. The correlation
showed in the table shows bivariate correlations of
all the variables (records management, project
scheduling, risk management, project monitoring
and project performance). Correlation analysis and
multiple regression analysis was used to compute
the mean of the items since the research instrument
was measured by multiple variables (Wang and
Benbasat, 2007)
From the correlation Table 4.13 it is clear that all the
independent variables (records management, project
scheduling, risk management and monitoring) are
strongly and positively correlated to project

Linear Regression Model of Project Scheduling
and Construction Projects Performance
Table 4.11 show correlation coefficient (R) and
determination (R2) which explains the degree of
association between independent and dependent
variables. A correlation coefficient of 1 means that
for every positive increase in one variable, there is a
positive increase of a fixed proportion in the other.
A correlation coefficient of -1 means that for every
positive increase in one variable, there is a negative
decrease of affixed proportion in the other. Zero
means for every increase, there is no positive or
negative increase. The two aren’t related. On the
other hand R2 is interpreted as the proportion of
variance in the dependent variable that is predictable
from independent variable. The coefficient of
determination is the square of correlation (r)
between predicted y scores and actual y scores; thus,
it ranges from 0 and 1.With linear regression, the
coefficient of determination is also equal to the
Natome and Muchelule (2018)
performance since all the correlation coefficients are
greater than 5.0 and p values for all the four variables
are 0.000 implying that all the variables are
statistically significant. The study results further
indicated that there positive, significant and strong
relationship between project scheduling and records
management (r=0.768, p<0.01), there was
significant and strong relationship between risk
management, records management and project
scheduling (r=0.779, p<0.01; r=0.807, p<0.01)
respectively. Lately the study results revealed that
there was significant, strong and positive
relationship between Monitoring, Records
Management, Project Scheduling and Risk
Management (r=0.843, p<0.01; r=0.759, p<0.01;
r=0.833, p<0.01) respectively. Karl Pearson’s
coefficient considers a range of 0.10-0.29 to be
weak, 0.30-0.49 to be medium and 0.5-1.0 to be
strong, Wong and Hiew (2005).

square of the correlation between the independent
and dependent variables. An R2 of 0 means the
dependent variables cannot be predicted from the
independent variable. An R2 of 1 means the
dependent variable can be predicted without an error
from independent variable. An R2 between 0 and 1
indicates the extent to which the dependent variable
is predictable.
The coefficient of determination (R2) and correlation
coefficient (R) shows the extent of relationship
between project scheduling and project
performance. The results of the linear regression in
table shows that R2 =0.570 and R = 0.755. R value
shows a strong linear relationship between the
project scheduling and project performance. The R2
indicates that explanatory power of the independent
variables is 0.570. This means that 57% of the
variation in project performance is explained by the
regression model while 43% remains unexplained
by the model. Adjusted R2 which is 0.568 is slightly
lower than R2 value is a sure indicator that there is a
strong relationship between project scheduling and
project performance, this is because it is so sensitive
to the addition of irrelevant variables. The adjusted
R2 indicates that 56.8% of the changes in project
performance are explained by the model while

it ranges from 0 and 1.With linear regression, the
coefficient of determination is also equal to the
square of the correlation between the independent
and dependent variables. An R2 of 0 means the
dependent variables cannot be predicted from the
independent variable. An R2 of 1 means the

indicates the extent to which the dependent variable
is predictable.
In this case the R= 0.842. This means there was a
strong positive relationship between the variables.
This value of R square indicates that the independent
variables can explain 70.8% of the variation in the
dependent variable. This implies that there is a
positive relationship between the dependent and the
independent variables and the data that had been
employed in the regression model were accurate.

Recommendations for Practice and Policy
The study recommends that the policy makers to
come up with policies which enhance automation of
records management functions and implement
records management awareness programs for non-
records management staff. They should provide
policies for training programs on records
management personnel.
Recommendations for Theories
The study recommends the use of Theory of
Constraints because the theories have highlighted
how an organization might be working to reduce the
effect of a constraint or risk. This might lead to
reduce resource wastage on factors that do not
contribute towards project success. It has also shows
that the organization should not focus on short-term
goals as opposed to long term goals, in that it only
evaluates what is happening currently. The theory
also shows the importance of project scheduling on
construction projects coordination.

Conclusions of the Study Suggestions for Further Studies

The conclusion of this study was based of the
objective that there was a statistical significant and
