Abstract

This study examines the impact of project management practices on project completion rates within Non-Governmental Health Organizations (NGOs) in Namibia the Oshana Region. Focusing on key practices such as project planning, communication, monitoring, capacity building, and stakeholder engagement, the research targeted 85 employees from four NGHOs, with data collected from 65 employees via Google Forms, yielding 51 responses. Using a positivist approach and quantitative methods, data was analyzed through SPSS, incorporating descriptive statistics and regression analysis. Findings indicate that 88.2% of respondents believe effective project management enhances completion rates, with 47.1% highly familiar with these practices. Critical success factors include stakeholder involvement, structured monitoring, and effective communication. However, challenges persist in ensuring consistency and improving feedback mechanisms. The study recommends strengthening communication channels, aligning monitoring activities with project goals, and enhancing training initiatives. Future research should explore emerging project management trends, technological impacts, and the role of organizational culture in improving project success.
