摘要
The aim of this study was to investigate conflict management in engineering projects in South Africa. Improved management of project failure is possible if the relationship between conflict management and project success is known. Organizations turn to project management to unlock opportunities and fulfil strategic objectives. This study provides a framework to address and manage conflict in outsourced engineering projects for the benefit of organizations and engineering professionals who are involved in projects. The constructs of conflict management and project success were delineated and analyzed with structural equation modeling in SPSS. The statistical analysis confirmed that effective conflict management positively impacts project success.
