The application of project management tools and techniques in public sector is gradually becoming an important issue in developing economies, especially in a country. There are different problems that are faced by housing projects such as delay, nonperformance of projects, not meeting required specifications and dissatisfaction of customers. This study aims to assess the extent to which project management is applied in Ethiopian public house (condominiums) projects and its contribution to success of these projects and to address the major causes of delay, cost escalation and poor quality. Project procurement management, project safety management, project time management, project quality management, project human resource management, project risk management, project stakeholders’ management and project claim management have significant contribution to the success of Ethiopian housing projects.
