Organizational project management maturity model (OPM3)

the long version

Just as individuals benefit from achieving personal maturity, organizations can now benefit from achieving organizational project management maturity. OPM3 is a standard unlike other contemporary maturity models and offers a comprehensive approach helping organizations to assess and develop their ability to deliver projects successfully, consistently and predictably. OPM3 offers the key to organizational project management maturity with three interlocking elements: knowledge element, assessment element and improvement element. The knowledge element, found on the OPM3 website and in the accompanying OPM3 knowledge foundation book, lets organizations uncover hundreds of best practices and shows them how to use the information available in OPM3. The assessment element is an interactive database tool accessible on the OPM3 website that let organizations evaluate their current situation and identify their areas in need of improvement. If an organization decides to embark on the path to higher maturity, the improvement element, also accessible on the website as a database, will help them map out the steps needed to achieve their goals.--Website.
