Analyzing Project Complexity, Its Dimensions and Their Impact on Project Success

Projects are undertaken in all science, engineering, and technology fields to achieve strategic tactical goals. It is evident from the literature that projects becoming more complex day by day, making project complexity a domain for current research. The objective of this study evaluate using systematic, comprehensive, widely accepted definition can capture multidimensional nature its impact on success. Therefore, an integrative systemic framework has been selected define considering seven key dimensions: context, size, diversity, autonomy, connectivity, emergence, belonging. employed structural equation modeling analyze complexity, dimensions their relationship with success engineering projects. After extensive review, validated questionnaire was developed used obtain responses different countries (Pakistan, China, UAE, UK, USA, others) aerospace, design, manufacturing, oil gas, IT, construction. work shows negative Further, analyses examined between complexity. significance lies evaluation systematic comprehensive which previous studies brings clarity understanding underlying mechanisms causal relationships related factors. findings suggest careful consideration these factors help managers better understand navigate ultimately improve rates.
