Abstract:
The main objective of this study is to investigate the influence of monitoring planning practices
on project performance of Kenyan State Corporations. Complexity theory informed the study.
Mixed research design was adopted and a target population of 187 state corporations was
used. Simple random sampling were used to select 65 state corporations who forms the sample
size. Data was collect using questionnaire. The collected data was analysed using descriptive
and inferential statistics as well as qualitative methods. Findings from regression model showed
that monitoring planning (β1 = -0.307) had negative significant effect project performance in
Kenyan State Corporations. The implication is that monitoring planning results in declined
project performance. There is thus need for further research on the same to establish the
validity of this concept.
