Project Performance Improvement through Planning, Technical Factors, Implementation, and Control Case Studies in MEP Contractor Projects

This research was conducted at a firm that operates in the MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) industry and engages in project management. In practise, the budget for the 2020–2022 project was exceeded, and the late delivery of project supplies resulted in project completion times that beyond the original timeline. This study aims to determine the magnitude of the impact of project planning on technical factors, project implementation, and control, as well as the impact of technical characteristics, project implementation, and management on the performance of MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) projects. One hundred respondents filled out the questionnaire that yielded the research data. The method of data analysis employed is PLS-SEM 3. The results of this study indicate that project planning effects technical aspects by 66.3%, implementation by 72.2%, and control by 59.0%. For MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) projects, technological factors have a positive and significant effect on project performance by 31.6%, implementation has a positive and significant effect on project performance by 27%, and control has a positive and significant effect on project performance by 37.4%.
