ABSTRACT

An organizational project management (OPM) system is about the various elements and components for managing projects within an organization. OPM must adopt a system thinking approach, considering all aspects, including the learning of the various project management associations—the ones with a general project management perspective and the ones with a focus on areas of specialties within project management. The term fundamental elements emphasizes that the elements are the minimum required to manage projects and achieve success. On the other hand, the term differentiating elements represent the elements that are essential for a higher level of performance and project management maturity. The proposed model—the advocated solution—is to provide an integrated approach from the various resources available within the project management domain. Organizations can either develop their OPMS by tailoring the SUKAD approach or kick start their effort using any other suitable approach.
