• The fundamental transformations under way in the global economy have only just started!
• Only 20 percent of the world’s GDP comes from industries that can be called global.
• It will take 30 years or more before anything reasonably approaching a truly integrated global economy will be realized.
• What can you expect over the intervening period?

PMI Standards• PMI was accredited in October 1998 as a Standards
Development Organization by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
• A PMI standard is: – A document consistent with the PMI Ends Policies & PMI
Standards Program Vision, Mission, Purpose and Standards Setting Process
– A document created by an appropriate diverse group through an open consensus-building process
– A document covering commonly accepted knowledge and/or practices and dealing with core concepts for the practice of theprofession

OPM3 Program
• In 1998 a program was chartered to develop an international standard for industry and government strictly through the grassroots efforts of unpaid volunteers
– to help organizations to assess and improve their project management capabilities as well as the capabilities necessary toachieve organizational strategies through projects
– to set the standard for excellence in project, program, and portfolio management best practices
– to explain the capabilities necessary to achieve those best practices

• Enable executives to assess their own organization’s or partner’s ability to a achieve strategic priorities through projects.
• Identify areas for improvement and ways to make coordinated improvements incrementally.
• Help all levels of management understand how to create an environment for successful projects.
181-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Benefits of OPM3
• Help those responsible for project management (e.g. PMO’s) identify drivers of project results and set standards for excellence.
• Enable organizations to achieve consistent implementation of project management work methods through standardization.
• Demonstrate relationships between executive functions and project management functions.
• Explain how to make project management measurable within an organization.
191-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Benefits of OPM3
• Rally an organization or its partners to focus on project management improvements.
• Facilitate organizational change associated with developing project, program, or portfolio management functions.
• Develop consistency and predictability in project delivery.
• Distinguish one’s own organization from competitors.

Maturity Model
• Capabilities are developed over time.
• “Maturity implies a state of being fully developed. Maturity also connotes understanding or visibility as to why success occurs, and as to ways to prevent common problems.” - John Schlichter, “Surveying Project Management Capabilities,” PM Network, 13(4), 39, April 1999.
• A model outlines the steps for achieving maturity.

Best Practice
• A Best Practice is a technique or methodology that, through experience and research, has proven to reliably lead to a desired result.
• In the OPM3, maturity is represented in terms of Best Practices. One applies OPM3 to achieve maturity, that is, to enact Best Practices.
• In the OPM3, Best Practices are comprised of constituent Capabilities.

Implementing OPM3
1. Study the Standard
4. Identify Capabilities Leading to
Best Practices
5. Evaluate Capabilities
6. Plan Improvements
7. Implement Improvements
8. Repeat the process
To implement the OPM3 standard, you perform a series of steps that comprise a repeatable process.
2. Self-assess
Organization
3. Determine Focus
on Best Practices
381-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Implementing OPM3: Step 1
1. Study the Standard
4. Identify Capabilities Leading to
Best Practices
5. Evaluate Capabilities
6. Plan Improvements
7. Implement Improvements
8. Repeat the process
In step 1, you read the introductory sections of the standard, which explain- the purpose and scope of OPM3- the meaning of maturity- how process improvement works- how information in the standard is organized- how to use it
2. Self-assess
Organization
3. Determine Focus
on Best Practices
391-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Implementing OPM3: Step 2
1. Study the Standard
4. Identify Capabilities Leading to
Best Practices
5. Evaluate Capabilities
6. Plan Improvements
7. Implement Improvements
8. Repeat the process
In step 2, you answer a concise list of questions that allow you to draw an inference about your organization’s maturity across a spectrum of areas addressed by the standard.
2. Self-assess
Organization
3. Determine Focus
on Best Practices
This is not a comprehensive maturity assessment. It is an interim step designed to help you focus on Best Practices you may need to work on the most.
Caveat: the only way to determine truly whether or not your organization has a Best Practice is to evaluate the Capabilities associated with that Best Practice, i.e. step 5.
401-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Implementing OPM3: Step 3
1. Study the Standard
4. Identify Capabilities Leading to
Best Practices
5. Evaluate Capabilities
6. Plan Improvements
7. Implement Improvements
8. Repeat the process
In step 3, using the results of the previous step, you decide which Best Practices to evaluate.
2. Self-assess
Organization
3. Determine Focus
on Best Practices
If the previous step indicated that your organization is immature in a certain area, you may wish to find out exactly what your capabilities are in that area.
Alternatively, if the previous step indicated high maturity in an area, you may wish to validate that indication to ensure it is accurate. Determine your area of focus.
411-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Implementing OPM3: Step 4
1. Study the Standard
4. Identify Capabilities Leading to
Best Practices
5. Evaluate Capabilities
6. Plan Improvements
7. Implement Improvements
8. Repeat the process
In step 4, you refer to a directory that shows you the Capabilities associated with each Best Practice. You refer to the Best Practices that you decided to focus on in the previous step.
2. Self-assess
Organization
3. Determine Focus
on Best Practices
Each Best Practice is comprised of a series of Capabilities. In this step, you see the sequence of Capabilities that result in development of a Best Practice.
In this step you are simply locating the lists of Capabilities leading to each of the Best Practices you have chosen to evaluate.
421-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Implementing OPM3: Step 5
1. Study the Standard
4. Identify Capabilities Leading to
Best Practices
5. Evaluate Capabilities
6. Plan Improvements
7. Implement Improvements
8. Repeat the process
In step 5, you evaluate the Capabilities leading to each Best Practice. Start with the lowest Capability in the sequence, and move up. If your organization has some of the Capabilities but not all of them, then the Best Practice has been achieved only partially.
2. Self-assess
Organization
3. Determine Focus
on Best Practices
You evaluate Capabilities by learning the Outcomes associated with each Capability, and verifying Key Performance Indicators.
Once you know which Capabilities the organization doesn’t have, you can see clearly which Capabilities remain to be developed.
431-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Implementing OPM3: Step 6
1. Study the Standard
4. Identify Capabilities Leading to
Best Practices
5. Evaluate Capabilities
6. Plan Improvements
7. Implement Improvements
8. Repeat the process
In step 6, you reflect on the results of the previous step and decide how to proceed. By now, you know the sequence of Capabilities leading to the Best Practices you have chosen to focus on, and you know which of those Capabilities have not been achieved. Plan the required improvements!
2. Self-assess
Organization
3. Determine Focus
on Best Practices
Because you know exactly where you stand on the path toward a Best Practice, you can see the next Capability ahead. You also know the Outcomes that should result from having that Capability. Decide whether to develop it.
441-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Implementing OPM3: Step 7
1. Study the Standard
4. Identify Capabilities Leading to
Best Practices
5. Evaluate Capabilities
6. Plan Improvements
7. Implement Improvements
8. Repeat the process
After deciding which improvements to make in step 6, you actually make those improvements in step 7.
2. Self-assess
Organization
3. Determine Focus
on Best Practices
You have selected the Capabilities that you wish to develop, and now you must initiate, plan, execute, control, and close projects to achieve those Capabilities.
Projects to develop organizational capabilities are often organizational change projects. In the steps leading up to this one, did you involve the stakeholders you need now?
451-404-728-0650 [email protected]
Implementing OPM3: Step 8
1. Study the Standard
4. Identify Capabilities Leading to
Best Practices
5. Evaluate Capabilities
6. Plan Improvements
7. Implement Improvements
8. Repeat the process
In step 8, after you have finished your Capability Development Projects to advance toward the Best Practices you have focused on, you can revisit the self-assessment questions in step 2, or you can go directly to step 3 to select Best Practices to focus on.
2. Self-assess
Organization
3. Determine Focus
on Best Practices
You may wish to re-select the same Best Practices chosen last time, in order to validate progress toward those Best Practices.
Alternatively, you may wish to focus on entirely new Best Practices.
