P3M3 Maturity Assessment
Portfolio, Programme, Project Maturity (P3M3) Maturity assessments can help you identify your organisation’s current maturity level and create a clear roadmap that will help elevate your performance from strategy alignment to project delivery. Find out how your organisation stacks up today.
Every organisation can benefit from knowing exactly where it is in its project, programme and portfolio management maturity and using this information to determine where they want to be and how to get there. We are pleased to partner with Crystal Consulting, which provides AXLEOS 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 improvement plans. We partner directly with Crystal Consulting, which specialises in facilitated self-assessments, diagnostic assessments, and certification assessments depending on your needs. Our clients appreciate the ease with which they can understand the professional, in-depth assessment findings and can implement the prioritised recommendations.
How we can help you assess your maturity…
You might know how mature you are in project or programme management, but do you know how mature your Project Management Office is? The higher your PMO maturity, the greater influence and impact they can have on your organisation, ultimately delivering more successful project outcomes.
By showing you how your PMO stands up against industry leaders, and leveraging our maturity assessment, we’ll bring you an overview of what’s going well, what’s not, and what you can do to stand toe-to-toe with those who are excelling.
How we can help you assess your maturity…
How we do it
We begin first by discussing your organisation’s needs and what level of PMO maturity best fits you – now and in the future. We define the key stakeholders who will take part in the assessment and communicate a plan of engagement.
We undertake the assessment utilising our developed maturity matrix which evaluates Governance, Integration and Alignment, Processes, Technology and Data, and People. Through this lens, we can establish your current level of PMO maturity.
Together, we will discuss the results of the assessment. Create a roadmap tailored to fit the level of maturity you want to achieve. We can also help support the implementation of the recommendations to ensure the changes are onboarded, improving the likelihood of success.
Practitioner Competency Assessments
Built upon the belief that your projects are only as good as the team delivering them. We can help you define the technical and behavioural competencies (experience, knowledge and skills) required to be successful. We will also assess your practitioners’ level of competence and provide individual insights for future growth opportunities.
Project management is a challenging profession that requires a combination of technical, behavioural, and contextual competencies. Understanding an individual’s strengths and weaknesses identifies growth opportunities, beneficial to both individuals and the organisations they work for. Organisations that establish a competency framework create a clear understanding of each project role, the experience required, and the knowledge and skills needed to successfully deliver the project pipeline.
Our competency assessment framework is built on international standards, and we tailor it to your organisation’s context. Utilising a combination of self-identified, peer-to-peer and independent reviews, the results provided a clear benchmark on what competencies, both behavioural and technical are in abundance and where there are gaps, fostering growth opportunities for individuals and a roadmap to create a powerhouse team for successful project delivery.
How we can help you…
How we do it
We begin by defining what competencies your projects need, both technical and behavioural. We establish the level of skill required by the role. We then determine the assessment model required and identify the individuals who will take part in the assessment.
Utilising the defined model, individual assessments are undertaken. This will provide a complete picture of each team member’s level of competency. The project roles assessed will be those discussed in our engagement phase and can range from project coordinators to programme directors or portfolio managers.
The final report provides a radar of competencies, identifying strengths and development opportunities for each individual. We provide individualised PDPs with recommendations for career development goals created with support from line managers.
