Discussion: Organizationaloject Management Maturity

Organizational Project Management (OPM) is a framework for implementing projects, programs, and portfolios within an organization. It provides the processes and methods for executing projects within an organization that align with organizational strategy and optimize resources within an organization. The importance of organizational project management increases as organizations increase the use of projects in implementing organizational strategy.

For this Discussion, review the required resources assigned this week. Select two examples of organizational project management maturity practices/activities that you feel could be generalized to your organization or an organization with which you are familiar. 

  • 1-Why do you think the practice you chose can be successfully generalized?
  • 2-How prepared do you think your organization is in the process for implementing OPM?
  • 3-What are the benefits of implementing OPM? What are the challenges?
  • 4-Do you think there would be resistance to change in your organization if OPM is implemented? Why or why not?
