Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the extant correlation among sustainable project planning, the utilization of project management information, and project success. Furthermore, the research employs the deployment of project management information as a mediating variable, while project manager satisfaction serves as a moderating variable in delineating the connection between the utilization of project management information and project success. This study gathered data from 239 employees in the interior design and construction industry in Saudi Arabia. The research utilized Partial Least Squares (PLS) software with a Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) approach to accomplish its objectives. The research reveals a notable correlation between sustainable project planning and project success, as well as between sustainable project planning and the utilization of project management information. Furthermore, the study confirms that project manager satisfaction moderates the relationship between sustainable project planning and the use of project management information. Additionally, the use of the project management information system significantly serves as a mediator in the association between sustainable project planning and project success. This research contributes to the scholarly discourse by establishing connections among technology utilization, project manager satisfaction, sustainable project management, and the success of interior design and construction projects in Saudi Arabia. The results underscore the imperative of incorporating sustainability considerations into project design and leveraging technology to enhance sustainability outcomes. These insights have implications for interior design and construction enterprises striving for both project success and sustainability.
