Nuru Aron, Dr. Samuel Obino Mokaya
Abstract: Successful implementation of projects generates positive impact to the organization. Traditionally, a project is successful if completed within scope, allocated budget and time, though there projects fail to meet the traditional metrics of success, but still seen as successful to the stakeholders. The study sought to determine factors affecting the successful implementation of projects of NGOs in Tanzania with special focus on selected NGOs in Arusha City. The study adopted an explanatory research design, covering a stratified sample of 30 respondents drawn from 200 employees of NGOs in Arusha City. Questionnaire and group discussion were used to collect data. Data was analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics. The study achieved a response rate of 86.66 %. The level of project implementation was high and influenced by a number factors, stakeholders involvement with a strongly significant positive correlation 0.531, followed by funding with correlation of 0.362, staff training at 0.35 and organization structure with a correlation of 0.288, all demonstrating significant and positive correlation. In order to improve on project implementation, it is recommended that NGOs should on a continuous basis identify and involve all relevant stakeholders, ensure staff training as part of project management, redesign their structures appropriately to facilitate effective implementation in terms of roles and responsibilities. This should be the centre of focus and attention throughout project life cycle.
