Effect of Project Management Information System on Projects Performance in Rwanda: A Case Study of New Life Women’s Development Project

The study titled "Effect of Project Management Information System on Project Performance in Rwanda: A Case Study of New Life Women’s Development Project in Kicukiro District (2018-2022)" aimed to assess various Project Management Information System (PMIS) dimensions, evaluate the project's performance, and analyze the impact of PMIS on performance outcomes. The study adopted a quantitative research design, surveying 36 employees of the project using questionnaires for data collection. Both descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were performed, revealing significant insights. The information quality dimension of PMIS received a high mean score of 4.6145, demonstrating its effectiveness. System quality also scored well, with a mean of 4.5793, while service quality, despite a notable mean of 4.5055, did not significantly influence performance. Functionality quality stood out with a high mean of 4.6825, while user satisfaction had a mean of 4.6389, reflecting its importance in project management. Regression analysis revealed that information quality (β1 = 0.331, sig. = 0.000) and functionality quality (β4 = 0.551, sig. = 0.000) had significant positive effects on project performance, whereas service quality showed no significant impact (β3 = -0.036, sig. = 0.619). Based on these findings, the study recommends that the New Life Women’s Development Project fully adopt and utilize PMIS, with a particular emphasis on generating high-quality information to enhance project management effectiveness and overall performance
