| Resumen: | Construction projects in developing countries indicate many implementation problems, such as the technical incompatibility of the implemented structure with the design, incorrect management, the prolongation of a very high percentage of projects up to several times of the planned period, and the increase in costs; it is vital for construction firms to gather, integrate, and communicate the results of project management procedures using tools and methods, including information systems, in order to reduce these problems. Evaluating the results of project management procedures, using tools and methods such as information systems, can be helpful to avoid implementation problems, technical incompatibility of the constructed structure with the design, improper management, delays, and cost overruns. Hence, this study aims to evaluate the influence of information systems on project management success through the mediator variable of project risk management in construction firms. To accomplish this, 95 Iraqi building specialists were picked as a statistical sample using snowball sampling. Three questionnaires were used as data collection tools including an information systems questionnaire with four dimensions and 27 questions, a project management success questionnaire with 27 questions, and a project risk management questionnaire with six dimensions and 25 questions based on a five-point Likert scale measurement. The validity and reliability of the questionnaires were checked and confirmed. Smart PLS 4 and SPSS 28 softwares were used for analyzing the data. Finally, the findings indicated that the impact effect as well as the full effect of information system variables on project management success without the presence of a mediator is significant. Moreover, the indirect effect of information system variables on project management success with the presence of a mediator is also significant. In addition, project risk management has a partial mediator effect on the effect of information system variables on project management success. Also, there is a considerable correlation between the use of information systems and the success of project and risk management. Moreover, in the first phase of stepwise regression, capacity development predicts project management success and risk management variables. The regression analysis revealed that among the dimensions of information systems, the Capacity Development dimension has the ability to predict the success of project management and project risk management. |
