The construction industry has been accused of ineffectiveness and inefficiency because of delays, cost overruns and defects that are partly due to flaws in the design. As professionals responsible for design, architects should achieve optimum performance in the project delivery process. This study aims to investigate the factors that influence the performance of architects in construction projects. This study employs a questionnaire survey for data collection and partial least square structural equation modelling (PLS–SEM) for data analysis. Using a census method, a total of 222 useable responses are gathered from registered architects in Indonesia. Results reveal significant and positive relationships between working condition, organisational support and effective design process and the performance of architects. The strongest effect is found from the influence of effective design process on the performance of architects. Thus, these factors should be applied to enhance the performance of architects, thereby improving the project outcome.

影响建筑师在建筑项目中表现的因素

由于延迟，成本超支和缺陷（部分原因是设计缺陷），建筑行业被指控无效和低效。作为负责设计的专业人员，架构师应在项目交付过程中实现最佳性能。本研究旨在调查影响建筑师在建筑项目中表现的因素。本研究采用问卷调查进行数据收集，采用偏最小二乘结构方程模型（PLS–SEM）进行数据分析。使用普查方法，从印度尼西亚的注册建筑师那里收集了总共222个可用响应。结果揭示了工作条件，组织支持和有效的设计过程与架构师绩效之间的显着正相关关系。从有效设计过程对建筑师性能的影响中发现最强烈的影响。因此，应将这些因素应用于增强建筑师的绩效，从而改善项目成果。
