Project risk management plays a pivotal role in the decision-making process, this research
aims mainly to study the impact of the dimensions of project risk management in contraction firms
operating in the Syrian coast on the quality of decision-ma
king and to identify the most influential
dimension in the interpretation of this quality.
The researcher had followed the survey method in his study, and the study population was
included all construction companies operating in the Syrian coast. The researcher adopted
probability sampling (random sampling), and the study sample size was 75 units. The researcher
used a measure of the maturity level of project risk management that developer by (Ciorciari &
Blattner, 2007), and another instrument to measure the quality of decision-making designed by
(Donelan, 2013).
The findings of this study shows that There is significant positive relationship between
events identification and the quality of decision-making and events identification variable occupies
first place among project risk management dimensions in terms of impact on decision making
quality, because this dimension explains a rate equal (9.61%) of decision making quality. The
relationship between the dependent variable quality of decision-making and the seven remaining
dimensions of risk management projects namely (monitoring of risk management - risks response -
objective setting - risk assessment - control activities - risk management culture - information and
communication) is a positive and significant relationship, and risk management as a whole explain
what percentage of (22.6%) of the quality of decision-making.

working in the Syrian coast should to spread the risk management culture at all levels of
management to enhances the application processes PRM because it will reflect on a more quality of
decisions making.
Information quality plays a pivotal role in the decision-making
process, this research aims mainly to study the impact of the
dimensions of information quality in construction firms operating in
Syria on the quality of decision-making and to ident
ify the most
influential dimension in the interpretation of this quality.
The researcher had followed the descriptive approach- survey
in the study based on the problem of the study and objectives that he
seeks to achieve, and included a study population of all construction
firms working in Syria.
