In order to ensure the performance of a project, it should be defined in terms of some measurable key parameters. Past researchers have identified project performance parameters such as cost, safety, construction productivity, and quality. Amongst all of them, construction productivity is one of the most reliable parameters of project performance. Performance can be measured at various levels including sector, organization, activity and project level in projectbased organizations. The methodology adopted to conduct the study is to collect the data through a structured questionnaire survey using convenient sampling technique. The number of variables selected from the literature for the study is 26 and the targeted data collection for the study is 125.The collected data has been analyzed using relative importance index (RII) to priorities the variables on the basis of their relative importance. The findings of the study concludes that the most significant 3 attributes impacting CPP are projected coordination meetings, coordination between all stakeholders, and top management support to PM having a relative value of 0.84, 0.82, and 0.69 respectively. SPSS 21 software tool has been used to check the reliability of the data and to perform factor analysis and the factors are pre-construction management, financial management, socio-economic management, coordination and communication management, resource management, commercial management, site management, and rework explains a variance of 14%, 10.3%, 9.1%, 7.1%, 6.3%, 6%, 5%,and 4.3% respectively. © 2018 The Authors.
