Abstract: Applying specific techniques and tools of project management has become an important issue of concern in the context of New Public Management and a practice for the public administration reform and integration, in an expanded European context and particularly in the case of Romania, where projects of various sizes (national programs and strategies and sectoral policies) are implemented by different structures. This paper aims to examine the application and integration of the project management instruments and techniques in the Romanian public administration practice. The research objectives are: (1) to present and analyze the using of projects and project management by public administration, and (2) to identify the effects of implementing project management on the development of the organizational capacity of the public sector. This paper presents (1) the results obtained from the study of the relevant literature and (2) the results of a questionnaire survey conducted among civil servants with the purpose of identifying the effects of using project management in Romanian public administration.
