What is Project Management Maturity?

Project management maturity refers to the progressive development of an enterprise-wide project management approach, methodology, strategy, and decision-making process.

The appropriate level of maturity will vary for each organization based on its specific goals, strategies, resource capabilities, scope, and needs.

Expert Project Managers Conduct Maturity Assessments

The proper level of maturity for which an organization should strive is determined during a detailed assessment conducted by a professional project management consulting team.

Improve Operational Efficiencies by Improving Maturity

The organization has achieved full project management maturity when it has met the requirements and standards for project management effectiveness as defined by the Project Management Maturity Model (PMMM^SM), and it is capable of demonstrating improvements such as on-time project delivery, cost reductions, organizational efficiency, and profitability.
