This research aimed to assess the monitoring practices in projects contracted to YOTEKrnconstruction PLC. An effort was made to identify the strengths, weaknesses, and challenges tornthe monitoring practices. It was a descriptive research where quantitative data was collectedrnthrough questionnaires distributed to all the staffs involved in monitoring. The data wasrnanalyzed on SPSS and MS Excel, and the findings inductively interpreted. An acceptablernresponse rate of 90.7% was achieved but the response rates for the open-ended questionsrnwere not satisfactory. The research found out that about half of the staffs assigned forrnmonitoring responsibilities need trainings in project management. Tools, systems, andrnapplications were sufficiently available but financial constraint was straining the practice.rnAspects of monitoring plan and its implementation were good, but some components of the planrnsuch as acceptable performance levels were not properly communicated. The data collectionrnwas frequent and flexible thereby contributing to data quality, though information overload was arndownside. The project reporting at YOTEK had some important attributes for effectiveness:rnTimely, flexibly scheduled, tailored to audience, and participatory. But independent performancernreviews aiming for unbiased, impartial assessment of the work were less common. Furthermore,rna weakness was noted in taking corrective action as per the findings of the performancernreviews. One of the interesting findings was that the weaknesses and strengths were notrnexclusive to each other, but project specific at times. The implication of this observation is thatrnthe monitoring practice was not highly consistent or it was not integrated across projects. Thernresearcher recommends YOTEK to build an integrated monitoring system so as to ensurernoptimal resource utilization. It is also recommended to conduct trainings to familiarize staffs tornthe monitoring tools and systems, to resolve the financial constraint and the communicationrnlapses that were affecting the monitoring practice.rnKey words:
