The multifaceted responsibilities of the project managers substantially affect the success of the project. Increased attention is drawn on the use of information and communication technology (ICT) for leveraging the success of the construction projects. Thereby, this study aimed to assess factors affecting shared knowledge and performance in construction projects in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Both qualitative and quantitative analysis was carried out to collect data. Firstly, interviews were conducted to collect qualitative data from both engineers and project managers. Secondly, questionnaires were distributed among the sample to evaluate the quantitative data. The results showed that the project managers view shared knowledge in two aspects, i.e., information availability and individual skills. Level of education, the existence of protective individuals, communication ability, and knowledge and skills were found to be the factors affecting knowledge sharing. ICTs were also found to help managers and engineers in administrative tasks.
