Paper Title:
RISK MANAGEMENT AND SUCCESS OF MULTI-PHASE ROAD CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT; A CASE OF REHABILITATION OF RUSIZI TOWN TARMAC ROADS (2015-2019).
The study entitled “Risk management and success of multi-phase road construction projects in local government; A Case of Rehabilitation of Rusizi Town Tarmac Roads (2015-2019)” was conducted for assessing the significance of risk management and success of multi-phase road construction projects in local government. The study was used both descriptive, qualitative, quantitative, and correlative design. The total population of the study were 132 stakeholders of Rusizi town tarmac road rehabilitation project. The researcher has used Slovin formula to calculate the total sample which is equal to 99 respondents. And for sample selection purposive sampling which was based on the selection of knowledgeable people about the rehabilitation of Rusizi Town tarmac roads project from 2015 to 2019 was used. Questionnaire, interview, and documentation were used as important tools of data collection (both primary, secondary, qualitative, and quantitative data). Data analysis was displayed in form of descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The study results confirm that, managing risks in project implementation is one of among tools for project success not only in road construction projects but also in all form of the projects. The quality of project outputs, or for a project to meet planned scope, budget, and deadline (time) depends on the quality ensured vis a vis risk management practice. This study has shown that risk management has contributed on 35.2% in the success of Rusizi town tarmac road rehabilitation project while remaining 64.8% was occupied by other factors not covered by this study. In other case, the project stakeholders have been confirmed that risk management was delayed, and decisions were also delayed it is in that context, the project was completed in 47 months and 12 days while only 10 months were planned, the project was completed with an increase of budget rated to 109% and the project scope was reduced to 5.05Km from 7.54Km planned. The researcher confirms that, there is a good contribution of risk management toward the success of multi-phase road construction projects in local government, this contribution was tested and found that it is statistically significant. Reference to the achievements or outputs of this research project owners or managers are recommended to ensure that project feasibility study was made before any project activity and was conducted by certified and qualified experts, project planning also should include clear plan and procedure for risk assessment, analysis, and handling. Other project stakeholders are recommended to respect the project expected outputs and ensure that any risk met or expected was reported on time and resolved or transferred before impacting the entire project.
