Abstract:
This article highlights the influence of
organisational culture on implementation
of electronic project monitoring
information system (e-ProMIS) in public
tertiary institutions. It is based on literature
review and field research by employing
cross sectional descriptive survey and
correlational research design. Data was
collected using questionnaire from 30
tertiary institutions and a sample size of
162 members of staff selected through
stratified random sampling technique. To
ensure validity and reliability of the
questionnaire, pretesting was conducted.
Data was analysed using both descriptive
and inferential statistics. The study
findings indicated that majority of the
Tertiary institutions in Kenya practiced
bureaucratic culture followed by
innovative culture then supportive culture.
Correlational results using Pearson’s
Product Moment Technique indicated
positive and significant coefficients
between the indicators of organisational
culture and implementation of e-ProMIS in
the public tertiary institutions in Kenya.
The test of hypothesis showed a
statistically significant relationship
between organisational culture and
implementation of electronic project
monitoring information system in public
tertiary institutions in Kenya. Based on the
research findings the null hypothesis that
organisational culture has no significant
influence on the implementation of
Electronic Project Monitoring Information
System in Public Tertiary Institutions in
Kenya was rejected and it was conclude
that organisational culture has a
statistically significant influence on the
implementation of Electronic Project
Monitoring Information System in Public
Tertiary Institutions in Kenya. These study
findings imply that for successful
implementation of e-ProMIS and other egovernment
systems, organisational
culture is imperative.
