Investigating project internal organisational culture mechanism and impact on construction project success and sustainability

It has been established that organisational culture is the primary factor that promotes the growth of the building sector, even though the mechanisms by which organisational internal factors impact the culture in construction are still unknown enough at the project level. The study aimed to investigate the mechanism that projects organisational culture and internal factors have been practiced, and how they are influencing construction project success and sustainability. A multidimensional construct of the project's internal organisational factors was suggested. Semi-structured interviews to investigate organisational culture were conducted with ten project managers who managed diverse construction projects in Syria. As a result, the mechanism of how internal organisational factors affected project performance was presented. The outcomes highlighted the mechanism of adequately handling organisational project internal factors to achieve project success. Thus, experts in the construction can use these results to improve their management practices and increase the project's success and sustainability.
