Abstract
A well-defined project strategy that will guide the implementation phase often precedes a project. However, changes often occur as the event progresses. The national lands commission projects continue to encounter major delays, cost overruns, and projects never went according to plan. In this regard, the study investigated the influence of monitoring and evaluation planning on project implementation by National Lands Commission in Nairobi City County, Kenya. The descriptive research design was employed in study methodology. 6 projects being implemented by the commission were targeted and 66 respondents among them 6 project managers and 60 project team members were the respondents. These respondents received structured questionnaires to gather data for the study. A total of 6 questionnaires were first piloted to ensure that met the required standard in collecting final data for the study. This was determined by subjecting the questionnaires for validity and reliability tests whereby three test for validity including; content validity, criterion validity and face validity were applied. Cronbach's alpha test was used to measure reliability. The study’s data was qualitative and quantitative and thematic method and descriptive statistics was used respectively in analysis data. The study used inferential statistics to see how the variables interact with each other. The data was presented in the form of tables and figures. The regression analysis results indicated that M&E planning, had a positive significant influence on project implementation. The study concluded that M&E planning helps in making decisions with clear objectives in mind and helps you concentrate on results that matter, while M&E allows you to learn from past successes and failures as well as lessons learned during project execution. The study recommended that project managers should define project objectives by defining the project's purpose, the process to follow and how stakeholders will be informed that the project is accomplishing its purpose.
