Spring 2010 An empirical study on the use of project management tools and techniques across project life-cycle and their impact on project success Boonkiart Iewwongcharoen, Dragan Milosevic , Peerasit Patanakul
Even though project management tools and techniques (PMTT) have been commonly used by project managers, research on PMTT still has not been adequately investigated as to whether its use contributes to the success of a project. The lack of such knowledge leads to the use of PMTT because of popularity rather than any known benefits. To respond to this issue, the authors conducted a large-sample study based on a survey and statistical analyses to investigate the use of PMTT. Evidence emerged that some PMTT should be used in a certain phase of a project and such uses contribute to project success.
