The application of Project Management Tools and Techniques (PMTT) has been integral to contemporary project management practices. Despite their widespread adoption, empirical research examining the contribution of PMTT to project success remains limited. This study examines the use of PMTT across different phases of the project lifecycle and evaluates their impact on project outcomes. A survey of over 400 project managers and subsequent statistical analysis reveals that selective application of PMTT during specific phases enhances project success. This research aims to provide evidence-based guidelines for project managers on the judicious use of PMTT to achieve superior results
