The era of globalization and information age has led to the reduction of information illiteracy and the digital divide. This in turn has led to competitiveness in the businesses not only locally but also internationally. Increased competition has led organizations to change their tactics to ensure they retain their market share. Among this tactics is engaging in projects that are critical for the survival of the organization. These projects run across all industries including but not limited to construction, Information Technology (IT) and pharmaceutical. The projects need to be planned, monitored, controlled, evaluated and staffed. The aspects of quality and risk management must also be incorporated in the management of projects. The commonality of all these projects is the aspect of management. For these organizations to be successful the projects must be managed well to achieve their objectives while considering the three major constraints of projects i.e. quality, budget and time. According to Raymond et al., 2008, it is paramount for organizations to adequately manage their projects if they are to achieve their performance objectives. They further observe that project management remains highly a problematic endeavor since most projects are either not completed on time or exceed the budget. For instance the Athens Olympic Games Stadium exceeded its budget by 9 billion Euros while the Canadian Arms Registry was completed 10 years later (Ibid). They continue to note that Gartner Research (an Information Technology Research and Advisory Company) estimates that 75% of IT projects managed with the support of Project Management Information Systems (PMIS) will succeed while 75% of those that don’t have the support of PMIS will fail. Although the use of PMIS in the management of projects is not a guarantee that projects will be successful PMIS have become a necessity in the management of all projects whether small or large, public or private.
