Practice Standards and Frameworks


Practice standards are guides to the use of a tool, technique or process identified in the PMBOK® Guide or other foundational standards.




Project Risk ManagementPractice Standard for Project Risk Management


Project risk management is a tool you can use to identify and prioritize risks before they occur, in order to minimize negative impacts on your projects. Use this standard to better assess the risks that may threaten the success of your projects.



Earned Value Management Practice Standard for Earned Value Management — Second Edition


Based on the fundamental principle that past patterns and trends can be good indicators of the future, earned value management (EVM) helps you clearly and objectively see where your project is going and compare it to where it’s supposed to be. This standard describes the elements of EVM and offers examples of how it can fit any project or situation.




Project Configuration ManagementPractice Standard for Project Configuration Management


Project configuration management (PCM) is the collective body of processes, activities, tools and methods project practitioners can use to manage items during the project life cycle. PCM addresses the composition of a project, the documentation defining it and other data supporting it. It is a baseline- and requirements-management process that provides managed control to all phases of a project life cycle.



Work Breakdown StructuresPractice Standard for Work Breakdown Structures — Second Edition (Reaffirmed)


Work breakdown structures (WBS) are used to define project deliverables and establish the structure to manage work to completion. This standard supplies project managers and team members with direction for the preliminary development and implementation of work breakdown structures.




The Practice Standard for SchedulingPractice Standard for Scheduling — Second Edition


Effective project scheduling and time management are critical factors in the success or failure of a particular project. The Practice Standard for Scheduling transforms chapter six of the PMBOK® Guide, Project Time Management, into an actionable and objective measurement process for project schedules and schedule models.



Practice Standard for Project EstimatingPractice Standard for Project Estimating


Effective project management requires consistent and repeatable processes and methodologies to manage the constraints of scope, time, cost and quality. The Practice Standard for Project Estimating provides guidance for achieving that through a sound estimating discipline for your project.




Project Manager Competency Development Framework - Second EditionProject Manager Competency Development Framework — Second Edition


This framework standard identifies ways to improve the personal competencies you need to be successful. Increase your capacity for personal growth with guidance for refining the three areas of project management competence: knowledge and skills, performance, and personal behavior and attitudes.


PMI Standards Extensions


Standard extensions expand upon our foundational standards to provide more information on specific project types or industry information.




PMBOK Construction ExtensionConstruction Extension to the PMBOK® Guide — Third Edition


Much of the PMBOK® Guide is directly applicable to construction projects. In the worldwide construction industry, though, project management concepts and practice have broadened. The changes differ sufficiently from other industries and applications to warrant this updated extension.



PMBOK Government ExtensionGovernment Extension to the PMBOK® Guide — Third Edition


This standard outlines the guiding principles for government projects and provides a framework to ensure efficiency, effectiveness and accountability. It provides an overview of the key processes used in most public sectors, defines key terms, describes how government projects operate, and reviews government program life cycles.

Pawarji,

 

These publications are pretty 'in-depth' ones and are good for specialized knowledge. But I doubt whether one needs to dive so deep from the PMP exam perspective.

Bud Diba,


 


Life does not start and end with PMP only. Certainly not for respected Pawarji Sir!!!


 


Respected Pawarji Sir must be trying to find anomalies with these PMI publicatiosns as well. Wait for some more time until he comes back with something glaring which an idiot like me can never ever fathom.


 


Warmly, KK...
