PPPM is About Finding the Best Way to Reach Your Objectives

Over the last five decades the Project Management Institute has advanced the art and science of project, program, and portfolio management by supporting research and best practice discovery among over 2.9 million professionals working in nearly every country and industry in the world. Olde Stone consultants are heavily involved with this effort, both as on-the-ground practitioners working with clients and as contributing authors to PMI publications.

PMI published Olde Stone Consulting white paper on "Using PMI Standards Framework to Improve U.S. Federal Government Capital Investment Outcomes"

This paper proposes that the U.S. federal government would benefit from utilizing PMI’s project, program, and portfolio standards framework as the basis for a common, robust federal system methodology. It outlines how three approved American National Standards developed by PMI can provide robustness and clarity, with a common language and a standard framework for agencies’ utilization. If followed in a disciplined manner, the standards provide for significant efficiencies within and across agencies, as well as improved efficiencies with industry.
