Project Management Process Maturity (PM)2 Model

Abstract

This paper presents the project management process maturity $(\mathrm{PM}{)}^2$ model that determines and positions an organization’s relative project management level with other organizations. The comprehensive model follows a systematic approach to establish an organization’s current project management level. Each maturity level consists of major project management characteristics, factors, and processes. The model evolves from functionally driven organizational practices to project driven organization that incorporates continuous project learning. The $(\mathrm{PM}{)}^2$ model provides an orderly, disciplined process to achieve higher levels of project management maturity.
