This study investigates the application of project management techniques to model critical success factors (CSFs) in large-scale construction projects, utilizing Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) to validate the measurement model. Through factor level analysis, eight distinct categories of CSFs were identified, highlighting their significance in project management success. The structural model analysis revealed positive correlations between project management success and CSFs, impacting project-level outcomes such as customer satisfaction, team satisfaction, and project profitability. Strong predictive validity and appropriate model fit were demonstrated through R-squared and Q-squared values, as well as WarpPLS analysis. The study's theoretical implications include a clear differentiation between project management success and project success, while practical implications underscore the importance of leveraging success factors to enhance project outcomes. Overall, the research provides valuable insights for improving the management and performance of large-scale construction projects.
