Introduction/background: The success of project management depends on a number of factors, and identifying and addressing them in the project management process increases the chance of success. New industrial, residential, or road construction projects are driving the growth of the construction industry. Construction projects are associated not only with the creation of new facilities and expansion of infrastructure, but also with the modernization of existing facilities, and their implementation takes place in a changing and turbulent environment. The above makes it important, especially in times of crisis and uncertainty, to identify factors associated with achieving success when managing these projects. Aim of the paper: Identification and analysis of key success factors in project management in a selected construction company. Materials and methods: To identify and analyse key success factors in construction industry project management, a diagnostic survey was conducted using a survey questionnaire. The survey was conducted among project team members working on construction industry projects in the selected entity. Results and conclusions: Success factors do not represent a universal set that will contribute to the success of every implemented project. On the basis of the empirical research carried out, a list of key success factors in construction industry project management was created, i.e. those factors that contribute most to success in this type of project. Furthermore, on the basis of the empirical research carried out, recommendations were developed for the management of projects in the selected entity, with particular attention paid to identified factors.

Design/methodology/approach: This research applies fuzzy set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fs/QCA). The sample of the study includes 17 cases of Polish consulting firms, and the fieldwork contains information from series of surveys. The survey includes five scales (person organization fit, supervisor support, rewards, organizational commitment and work engagement) in the form of statements to which respondents indicate their level of agreement/disagreement on a five-point Likert scale. Findings: empirical research indicated the configurations of factors which lead to job satisfaction in PBO, pecially, (C1): person organization fit, supervisor support and organizational commitment and (C2): rewards, organizational commitment and work engagement with absence of supervisor support and (C3): person organization fit, rewards and work engagement influence job satisfaction in project-based organization. Research limitations/implications: the first limitation relates to the data source – the data in this study come from a limited research sample-consulting firms. Second, this study considered and examined few factors of job satisfaction selected based on critical analysis of the literature and future studies could include other variables. Practical implications: the results of research have practical implications for managers of project-based organization, because they provide them with configuration of factors which lead to job satisfaction. Originality/value: using of fs/QCA, which enabled simultaneous studying the effect of selected factors and it is an original contribution to the research on job satisfaction in PBO.

Previous research demonstrates the importance of social capital, environmental complexity, goal orientation, and project performance. However, the influence of these factors on project performance is unclear and was examined singly, i.e., each factor was studied separately in connection with project performance. The aim of this paper is to examine which configurations of selected factors, such as goal orientation, social capital, and environmental complexity, affect project performance in project-based organizations. This paper argues that these factors simultaneously affect project performance, in different configurations. This study applies fuzzy set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fs/QCA), which points to three configurations of conditions that influence project performance in project-based organizations. These findings help complement some of the results of previous studies on project performance.

One of the big challenges facing small and medium enterprises is human resource management. People spend most of their hours at work, and job satisfaction plays a vital role in an efficient work environment. Employee job satisfaction is a very complex construct, and is considered a critical factor in the organization's success. The purpose of this article is to examine how various, selected factors, such as: identification with the strategy, leadership style, job security and awards, simultaneously affect employee job satisfaction in Polish small and medium-sized enterprises. The sample of the study includes employees of Polish small and medium enterprises. Based on data from 274 surveys with Polish small and medium sized enterprises’ employees, fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis was used to investigate several combination of conditions affecting job satisfaction. The results presented in the article confirm that a high level of job satisfaction can be achieved through many constellations of conditions. Small and medium-sized enterprises can adopt in practice these specific factors in several constellations to obtain a higher level of employee job satisfaction.
