Abstract
Government-funded projects have long-term impacts on environment and socioeconomics in any country. However, despite government efforts to provide funding for development, Kenya has seen a sharp rise in the number of unfinished and failed projects and only 5% of projects have been effectively completed. The study specifically assessed the effect of stakeholder planning on completion of NGCDF projects in Kibwezi West Sub County, Kenya. The contingency theory was used to anchor the study employing descriptive design was applied and targeting project managers and supervisors of 209 completed NG-CDF projects in 2015/2016, 2017/2018, 2018/2019, 2019/2020, 2020/2021, 2021/2022 financial years. Simple random sampling was employed to identify the sixty-three (63) NG-CDF projects respondents. Primary data was collated via structured close-ended questionnaire. The survey examined validity of questionnaires through content and construct validity and reliability by using Cronbach’s alpha. Using inferential as well as descriptive analysis, data was analysed. Graphs, charts and tables were utilized in descriptive analysis, whereas multiple regression methods were utilized in inferential analysis. Ethical considerations were observed duly. Findings from the survey established a significant yet positive effect of stakeholders planning on national constituency projects completion. The survey recommends that the government should ensure that there are well-defined and efficient communication channels among stakeholders involved in the development projects. Implement regular meetings, workshops, and reporting mechanisms to facilitate the exchange of information and updates. This can be done by utilizing various communication tools such as email, project management software, or online platforms to enhance communication efficiency.
