    Firms with a standard PM

    methodology for managing

    their projects (78% of the

    firms surveyed) had fewer

    than half as many project

    Project Standard Tailoring

    The organization and/or project managementteam is responsible for determining the

    appropriate standard and amendments to

    the selected standard. for any given project.

    The PMBOK Guide also provides and

    promotes a Common Vocabulary within the

    project management profession.

    Application of standards enhances the chances of success over a wide variety of projects.

    But, all the processes may not apply uniformly to all projects. Hence, it is the RESPONSIBILITY of your

    organization and/or the project management team to determine what is appropriate for any given project.

    The project manager, along with project team, is always responsible for determining:1. What processes are appropriate?

    2. What is the appropriate degree of rigor for each process? THIS IS CALLED TAILORING!

    Smart Management Consultants (SMC)

    Standard Vs. Regulation

    A Standard is a set of best Practices for a

    certain Industry.

    Once a Standard is selected and is enforced by

    the Authority, it becomes a Regulation. SBP, PTA, SECP are the example of Regulatory

    Authoritiesthat enforce their Regulation in

    their respective industries.

    Select appropriate processesrequired to meet

    the project objectives,

    Comply with requirements to meet stakeholder

    needs and expectations, and

    Balance the competing demands of scope, time,

    cost, quality, resources, and risk to produce the
