P3M3® Maturity Assessment

 

Every organisation can benefit from knowing exactly where it is right now in terms of project management maturity and using this information to determine the optimal level of maturity and how to get there. Being at the right level of project management maturity delivers real tangible and quantifiable benefits. 

We are pleased to be part of the AXELOS Consulting Partner program and as part of this we offer P3M3® maturity assessments. The Portfolio, Programme, and Project Management Maturity Model (P3M3®) provides a framework for organisations to assess and benchmark their current performance and effectively develop plans for improvement. We offer facilitated self-assessments, diagnostic assessments, and certification assessments depending on your needs.

We also offer our own 3PMTM tool which provides a cost effective way for organisations to get a snapshot of current strengths and weaknesses and from this decide on appropriate value driven recommendations.

Our clients appreciate the ease with which they can understand the professional in-depth assessment contents, and implement the prioritised jargon free recommendations. Click the link below to find out more the assessment process and outcomes.
