What is a Maturity Model, and why use one?
The use of a maturity model allows an organization to have its methods and processes assessed according to management best practice, against a clear set of external benchmarks. Maturity is indicated by the award of a particular "Maturity Level". Maturity level assessment of an organization's portfolio, programme and project management will provide the following benefits:
- A known Maturity Level, with precise recommendations on how to improve.
- Ability for organizations to compare their Maturity Level with other organizations, or other parts of their own organization.
- A big improvement on self-assessments.
- A consistent set of questionnaires and scoring.
- Independently verified and certified. - An independently held set of "benchmarks".
