INTRODUCTION

The historical transformation of project financial resource allocation in real estate development is a testament to human ingenuity, yet it also reveals enduring challenges that continue to influence project outcomes. The evolution from ancient practices to modern-day strategies involves significant milestones, as noted by Abhishek et al. (2023), Bhattacharya (2023), and Saad, Alaloul, & Ammad (2022). In ancient times, the absence of structured financial resource management in real estate projects led to inefficiencies and unpredictability. Projects lacked regular schedule optimization, which hindered their potential for timely completion and resource utilization. According to Abhishek et al. (2023), this period was characterized by ad-hoc financial resource distribution, relying heavily on labor- intensive methods that lacked technological intervention. The absence of a systematic approach often resulted in delays and cost overruns, which are crucial factors affecting project outcomes in real estate development.

The late 19th century marked a pivotal shift towards more structured financial resource management, particularly in sectors like construction, manufacturing, and transportation (Bhattacharya, 2023). This era witnessed the introduction of project management methodologies that emphasized efficiency and coordination. Historical endeavors, such as the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad and the reconstruction of the Post-Civil War South, exemplify the growing importance of effective financial resource allocation. These projects showcased a transition towards more organized practices, though they were still constrained by the technological limitations of their time. Despite these advancements, the early 20th century continued to grapple with financial resource allocation challenges.  While structured methodologies improved coordination, they often lacked the precision required for optimal resource utilization. The advent of computer technology and project management software in the latter half of the century began to address these limitations. However, as Saad, Alaloul, & Ammad (2022) argue, the real estate sector was slow to adopt these innovations, partly due to the complexity of integrating technology into traditional practices.

Historically, project financial resource allocation in African real estate development has been shaped by a myriad of factors, including colonial legacies, economic policies, and infrastructural deficits. According to Ofori (2020), the colonial past has left a fragmented land resources tenure system and regulatory framework, which significantly impacts financial resource allocation in contemporary projects. These historical constraints often lead to inefficiencies and increased project costs. Acheampong and Adom-Asamoah, (2021) highlight that post-independence economic policies have further complicated financial resource distribution, with many governments prioritizing urban over rural development, thereby skewing financial resource allocation. According to Moyo and Sibanda (2024), corruption and bureaucratic inefficiencies remain prevalent obstacles that hinder effective financial resource allocation.

These challenges are reminiscent of historical governance issues, suggesting a continuity of systemic problems despite advancements in technology and foreign investment (Moyo & Sibanda, 2024). The persistence of such issues underscores the complexity of financial resource allocation in African real estate development, where historical and contemporary factors are deeply intertwined. In conclusion, the historical background of project financial resource allocation in African real estate development has a profound impact on project outcomes. The real estate sector in Mogadishu, Somalia, has undergone significant changes over the years, particularly in how financial resources are allocated and managed to influence project outcomes. The backdrop of Somalia’s socio-political dynamics has had a profound impact on the efficacy and success of real estate projects in Mogadishu, Somalia (Larson & Gray, 2022)). Mogadishu, Somalia, has been a focal point for real estate development due to its economic significance and population growth. However, the allocation of resources has been complicated by the city’s history of conflict and instability. According to Zwikael & Meredith (2019). financial resource allocation in Mogadishu’s real estate projects has often been hindered by inadequate infrastructure, lack of proper urban planning, and inconsistent policy implementation. These challenges have resulted in projects that are either incomplete or fail to meet their intended objectives (Armstrong & Baron, 2013). Certain regions in Somalia, such as Somaliland, have experienced more success in real estate development due to more stable political environments and better financial resource management. As noted by Kerzner (2017), Somaliland has benefited from a relative peace that allows for better regulatory oversight and efficient financial allocation of resources, leading to more successful project outcomes. This stability has enabled investors to engage more confidently, resulting in a burgeoning real estate market.

Despite these regional differences, there are areas in Mogadishu where real estate projects have seen better outcomes. In their comprehensive study, Alcock, (2009). Highlights the importance of international partnerships and foreign investment in improving financial resource allocation and project outcomes. These collaborations have introduced better project resources allocation practices and funding opportunities, allowing for more efficient use of financial resources. (Okeyo, Ombachi, & Mogusu, 2021) However, the study also emphasizes that these successes are often isolated and not indicative of a broader trend across projects and includes effective monitoring of the projects outcomes. In regions where real estate development is still lagging, such as parts of Mogadishu, Somalia the challenges are often tied to security issues and weak institutional frameworks. As observed by Nyonje, Ndunge, & Mulwa, (2012) these areas struggle with financial resource allocation because of insufficient governmental support and the presence of non- state actors that complicate the regulatory environment. This has led to projects that are either stalled or do not reach completion, due to financial resource allocation constraints reflecting a broader pattern of uneven development within the country.

Contextual Perspective

Buruuj Real Estate Development Company was established in 2009 with the aim of delivering top-notch construction services at affordable rates to meet the housing needs of the Somali population (Buruj Real Estate and development Company, 2019). Presently, Buruuj operates as a comprehensive construction and real estate service provider in Somalia, focusing on residential, commercial, and institutional projects, demonstrating expertise in technical construction endeavors from inception to completion. The company, recognized for its adherence to project timelines and quality standards, is making strides towards acquiring ISO 9001:2000 certification and other relevant quality and safety credentials, illustrating a commitment to excellence in construction and project management.

However, real estates in Somalia including Buruuj despite claiming to bring a wealth of experience to their projects, they struggle to deliver quality results in challenging environments due to difficulties in access and numerous hindrances (Wang & Li, 2022). Despite their years of safety and risk analysis expertise, construction and real estate in Mogadishu Somalia have failed to safely deliver and upgrade clients’ buildings (Kerzner, 2017). Challenges such as proper planning, client communication, and logistical management have impacted their project outcomes (Serpe, Smith, & Johnson, 2022). . While these construction and real estate development companies emphasize on satisfying their clientele, they are unable to produce progress reports, failed to meet datelines (timeliness), incurred excessive costs and ultimately produced poor quality projects in Somalia (Muktar, 2021). It is upon such issues that has prompted the researchers to conduct a study on financial resource allocation strategies and project outcomes of real estate development in Mogadishu, Somalia.

Statement of the Problem

Globally, financial resource allocation strategies within real estate development projects ensure that financial resources adequately allocated and utilized effectively to achieve project goals and within budgetary constraints (Bhattacharya, 2023). However, in Mogadishu, Somalia, the project outcomes including those undertaken by companies like Buruuj real estate development are rated under low outcomes and this is evidenced by factors such as inability to produce progress satisfactory reports, failed to meet timeliness, incurred excessive costs and ultimately produced poor quality projects (PMBK, 2021, Gido,Clements, & Baker,2018). With these poor project outcomes of construction and real estate in Mogadishu Somalia, this has led to beneficiary’s income inequality, stiff unemployment opportunities, poor growth and low levels of GDP contribution to the country (Kerzner, 2017).).

However, Abdihakim and Alfayos (2024) attributed such poor project outcomes to ineffective financial resource allocation strategies employed by Real Estate development companies in Mogadishu, Somalia. Several real estate development companies and especially Buruj have been affected due to inadequate financial resources that have led to delays, cost overruns, and poor project outcome (Banihashemi, Hosseini, Golizadeh, & Sankaran, 2017)). This calls for the need to explore on the financial resource allocation strategies on project outcomes of Real Estate Developments.

Objective

(i) To determine the effects of human resource allocation on the project outcomes of Buruuj construction and real estate in Mogadishu, Somalia.

(ii) To assess the effects of financial resource allocation on the project outcomes of Buruuj construction and real estate in Mogadishu, Somalia.

(iii) To examine the effects of material resource allocation on the project outcomes of Buruuj construction and real estate in Mogadishu, Somalia.

LITERATURE REVIEW

Theoretical review

Resource-based view theory

The study was guided by the resource-based theory propounded by Paauwe in 2024. According to Paauwe (2024) resource-based view (RBV) theory states that the possession of resources is valuable, difficult to imitate, rare, and cannot be substituted. The resource-based theory suggests that organizations should look inside the company to find the sources of competitive advantage through the use of their resources.  Further, RBV theory posits that resources and capabilities are not easily transferable between firms, highlighting the uniqueness of organizations’ resources even within the same industry (Uyanik, 2023). Resource-based view theory assumes that a firm’s resources and capabilities are the primary drivers of its competitive advantage and superior performance (Bals & Rosca, 2022). This theory assumes that firms’ performance and competitive advantages are enhanced by effectively utilising valuable resources and capabilities to achieve sustained superior performance and competitive edge (Mansour et al., 2022). This theory focuses on the effects of the resources that businesses have and their ability to use these resources on business performance and gaining competitive advantage (Salsabila et al., 2022

The resource-based view (RBV) has limitations in understanding project performance, such as overlooking regularly focusing on the project level and overlooking the individual level factors that contribute to performance (Marino-Romero, Palos-Sanchez & Velicia-Martin, 2022) and does not fully account for the dynamic nature of resources and their impact on performance over time (Pitesa & Thau, 2018). Another constraint is the lack of consideration for external factors like market conditions or industry dynamics in shaping performance outcomes, while also overlooking non-financial dimensions like employee well-being or customer satisfaction (Pitesa & Thau, 2018; Spanouli & Hofmans, 2021).

Empirical Review

Effect of human resource allocation on project outcomes

Optimizing human resource allocation in construction projects is crucial for efficient task completion, as highlighted by Amin, Rani, and Sianipar’s (2024) study on the feasibility of constructing the Iskandar Muda Military Regional Finance Office in Banda Aceh City. The study findings from productivity calculations revealed a decrease in the relationship between duration and work productivity progress, rendering the current number of workers ineffective in ensuring construction feasibility from a human resources standpoint. Despite the presence of 32 workers with skills aligned with job descriptions, the research underscores the importance of optimizing labor allocation and time utilization to enhance productivity. By implementing efficient methods tailored for repetitive tasks and adjusting labor requirements throughout the project duration, this approach proves feasible and effective in achieving better overall results in constructing the Iskandar Muda Military Regional Finance Office. However, while the study emphasizes the importance of considering various factors like employee competence and technology advances, there is limited discussion on the potential biases or subjectivity that may arise in the allocation process, which could impact the overall effectiveness of resource utilization. This study will fill this gap.

Khatun, Hiekata, and Nakashima (2023) in their study on human resource allocation in multi-project management, revealed the complexity caused by resource sharing in such environments. Portfolio managers face challenges due to resource dependencies and high uncertainty, as classical mathematical approaches struggle to effectively address interrelationships and dynamic changes in multi-project settings. The study findings revealed that human resource allocation significantly affect the success of projects within multi-project management frameworks. The strategic deployment of human resources significantly enhances project outcomes by optimizing performance metrics and streamlining processes. By leveraging human resources effectively, portfolio and project managers navigate through uncertain and complex environments with greater ease, ultimately ensuring the successful completion of projects within allocated timeframes. However, the proposed solutions primarily focus on cost minimization and project duration without explicitly addressing the potential trade-offs between different project objectives, such as quality, innovation, or employee development, which are crucial for long-term project success. This study will fill this gap.

Effect of financial resource allocation on project outcomes

Aradukunda and Sikubwabo (2024) investigated the influence of financial resource management on project performance in Kigali City, revealing challenges such as misappropriation of funds and inadequate performance monitoring leading to project failures. The research aimed to evaluate the impact of financial resource management planning and control on project performance, utilizing financial literacy and resource dependency theories, literature review, and data collection techniques to analyze the data. Findings indicated that there is a significance relationship between financial resources management and City of Kigali’s project performance; and it was found that holding all the financial resources management to a constant zero, project performance of Kigali City will be 30.6 percent, a unit increase in the use of financial resource planning will lead to a 0.731% improvement in project performance in Kigali City, the use of financial resource management will lead to a 1% improvement in project performance in Kigali City.  The study’s regression analysis highlighted the significant influence of financial resource management on project performance in Kigali City, with financial resource planning having the greatest impact followed by financial resource control. The results indicate that maintaining expertise in financial control is crucial for enhancing organizational performance at the public entity Kigali City, as shown by the statistical significance of all factors examined at a 95% confidence level. However, this study looked at financial resource management, the focus of the present study is on financial resource allocation.

Grakhov, Noring and Ribeiro (2023) examined the management of funds and performance evaluation in infrastructural projects, focusing on the Trans-Canada Highway. Efficient funds management is vital in infrastructure endeavors to ensure proper allocation and utilization of financial resources for project success. The study revealed that effective financial resource allocation influences project outcomes by ensuring optimal fund utilization, cost control, and performance evaluation, crucial for the success and sustainability of infrastructural projects. Moreover, monitoring funds strategically throughout the project’s lifespan is critical for achieving goals, with project performance gauged through indicators like cost control, adherence to timelines, delivery quality, and overall outcomes. Effective funds management is crucial for optimal allocation and efficient use of resources in infrastructure projects, helping to monitor expenses, detect budget discrepancies, and implement corrective actions to mitigate financial risks.

Effect of material resource allocation on project outcomes

Weiss, Hoegl and Gibbert (2019) examined the relationship between material resource adequacy and the performance of innovation projects. The study findings revealed that material resource adequacy has a positive significant influence on the performance of innovation projects based. This suggests that having sufficient material resources at one’s disposal can lead to improved project performance across various domains. Furthermore, the efficient allocation of resources has the potential to not only optimize project outcomes but also contribute significantly to the overall success and sustainability of innovation initiatives.

Further, Weiss, Hoegl and Gibbert (2016) examined the impact of material resources on team performance in innovation projects have yielded inconclusive findings. This research aims to fill this gap by focusing on team members’ perceptions of material resource adequacy. By exploring the drivers of these perceptions, this study not only aims to resolve conflicting results in existing literature but also aims to offer guidance on project funding to enhance innovation project performance. Utilizing survey data from 121 innovation projects in the electronics industry, this paper differentiates between new product quality and novelty as outcome dimensions of innovation project performance. The results reveal that team potency and workload are significant socio-cognitive factors influencing perceptions of material resource adequacy among innovation project teams. Additionally, the study revealed a significant positive relationship between perceived material resource adequacy and new product quality, while a negative relationship is observed with new product novelty. This research emphasizes the importance of considering socio-cognitive factors in understanding the relationship between material resource adequacy and innovation project performance, suggesting a need for further exploration of cognitive aspects in research on innovation and project management.

Jusoh and Kasim (2019) investigated the effects factors of material management on project performance and explore the implication of such factors on the performance of a construction project, in order to improve the efficiency of the material management. Material management is an important element in project management as materials contribute a major portion to total project cost. It also plays a key role because of the successes of every construction project rely on having proper resources. The study found out that proper material management positively impacts project performance by minimizing costs and ensuring timely delivery, ultimately enhancing project outcomes. In conclusion, exploring the implication of material management towards project performance will benefit construction players in improving the efficiency of material management in order to minimize the impacts on construction projects performance.
