ASSIGNMENT 2

1. Project management maturity, as presented in the Self-Instructional

Manual, indicates how well a company has evolved its project management approach,
strategy, decision-making, and its set of management approaches. There are
five levels to assess an organization's project management maturity: initial process,
structured process and standards, organization standards and institutional process,
managed process, and optimizing the process. These tools can be used to evaluate
project management maturity. Furthermore, a high level of maturity is required in an
organization because it will influence the completion of a project and flow as well as
its success. As a result, if the project management maturity is low, it indicates
disturbing effects that will surely impact the project's success. The first implication
that I can conclude is that the organization is not making efficient and effective use of
its available assets/ resources. In addition, this might also be a result of the
management's confusing decision-making process and handling of project
management. Having a low maturity level of project management is a disturbing
scenario for organizations and ignoring it is a poor decision that needs to be corrected
and addressed right away because everything will be put to waste if the project
management process continually functions not competitively.
