Purpose: The purpose of this article is to identify scheduling problems in Polish local government units, examine the standards that are already used and identify the possibilities of improvement. For these reasons, three research questions are stated and then answered. Design/methodology/approach: A questionnaire method is used. The answers are collected from Polish local government units. A quantitative data analysis is performed, supplemented by an in-depth analysis of the open question answers. Findings: The results reveal that public projects do not always end on time and that standard scheduling and estimation are not always used. We provide recommendations for scheduling improvements. Research limitations/implications: The scheduling procedure is subject to further research, as it has not been verified and adjusted. Other countries’ insight is also needed. Practical implications: We believe that our work has a practical aspect for many Polish local government units and helps them in standardizing project scheduling supported by IT tools. Social implications: Infrastructure projects include the interests of local businesses and communities. Scheduling is a crucial element of providing project transparency and accountability, as well as enables communication with the stakeholders and the general public. Originality/value: The work tries to fill in the gap in standardizing scheduling practices in Polish local government units. The questionnaire data collected can also be used for further research.
