Summary
One of the characteristics of project success is the ability of the endeavour to satisfy the desires and aspiration of the client and the eventual end users. In commerce, it is believed that production is not complete until the goods get to the hands of the final consumers. A product that satisfies the consumers will be of a high demand. If a product has high demand, it means a boost in the rate of turnover for the company. The rate of turnover determines the company's marginal profit. This is a primary way that national wealth is created. Intrinsic in the value of a product or service is the quality. One can therefore appreciate the role that quality plays in the march out of economic depression. A developing economy is not expected to compromise quality standard in all its ramifications. This is because compromising quality standards will force the economy to rigmarole. The study analyzed quality factors that constrain project management success of public and private sector construction in Nigeria. The major finding is that the quality factors exact high level negative influence on success in the construction project management.

Quality Factor Indexes; a Measure to Project Success Constraints in a Developing Economy
1. Introduction
The extent to which construction projects and other manufacturing products conform to set standards, specifications and perform the desired functions efficiently is a function of the degree to which the production processes are controlled. Construction project management has four distinctive phases and quality measures are expected from the conception to termination. The construction environment has to be unique. The sight must be the best alternative to house such construction (ie having its highest and best use), having efficient and quality design, the best project manager and the best construction team, the best material specifications, having a good and efficient financial arrangement, having a qualitative time frame and above all making use of modem qualitative project management techniques in the implementation process. In all businesses that produce goods and/or services, input materials are processed through a wide assortment of operational "systems" in order to achieve the desired end result. These input materials receive value as they interact with the machines and men of the production system.A developing econom...See the full content of this document
