  • PMO teams to ensure a common understanding of the competences and proficiency levels required of them; and,
  • Corporations looking to benchmark their own organization specific competency frameworks against the standard.

Developed by the PMO Community

The PMO Competency Framework has been created by crowdsourcing the collective intelligence, insights, and experiences from the PMO community, managed by the PMO Flashmob.

It is a PMO Competency Framework created by PMO professionals for PMO professionals.

It was a project initiated to address the needs of many PMO professionals who have felt that, for many years, there was no competency framework and assessment available that specifically focused on PMO roles.

It was never going to be an easy task, after all, there are many different types of PMO available, and different types of people that work within them. Often, we hear that PMOs are too unique to an organization, that a PMO Competency Framework cannot be created because of that. Over several years, that and many other challenges have been overcome to provide this first edition for PMO professionals.

 

 

2021 Launch

Launched on the 18th February, the PMO Competency Framework quickly became a number one bestseller in the project management book charts.
