Introduction/background: This paper explores the relation between a concept of project key success factors, popular among project management practitioners, with the operational performance of the project delivered by its team. Aim of the paper: This paper presents research, which answers the question if teams working with the support of project key success factors achieve better performance. Materials and methods: Literature research was conducted, which covered both the subject of team performance and project success. This led to the definition of project team performance and analysis of its relationship with project success. The literature on key success factors was analysed in a historical overview from 1967 to 2020. The empirical research covered the correlation between project success factors and project team performance. Results and conclusions: The analysis of the results showed that each of the team performance components is associated with other group of success factors: project time with collaborative atmosphere (parent organisation-related factors), project quality with professional competence of project team members (team-related factors), project cost with clearly defined objectives (project-related factors).
