ENHANCED DECISION-MAKINGINMULTI-PROJECT MANAGEMENT:AN ANAYTICAL EXPANSION ON THE ROLE OF PMIS

Project Management Information Systems (PMIS) are vital tools for planning, organizing, and controlling activities in multi-project environments. This study explores the influence of PMIS on decision-making quality,with an emphasis on the interconnected roles of information quality, user satisfaction, and information utilization. Data was gathered from project managers in a multinational pharmaceutical company and analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results reveal significant insights: PMIS information quality strongly correlates with enhanced decision-making and user satisfaction, while counterintuitive findings show that project and information overload may not always detract from system effectiveness. This paper expands on the original study, offering a broader technical perspective by incorporating related literature, industry-specific insights, and recommendations for optimizing PMIS in high-stakes environments
