Abstract: This research aims to explore the effect of utilising the software-enabled earned value management (EVM) technique on the perceived performance of projects executed by the construction contracting companies in Jordan. A total of 62 questionnaires were collected and analysed using exploratory factor analysis, multiple, simple linear regression and analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results demonstrate a significant positive effect of the utilisation of software-enabled EVM on the performance. Also, a positive significant effect of the supposed drivers was detected on the utilisation of system engineers (SE)/EVM, with the highest effect related to the internal system integration. The study concluded that, if the construction contracting companies in Jordan want to enhance their perceived performance, they may have to consider the utilisation of such SE/EVM and other related information systems.
