PMBOKstandardi

The Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) standard is a guide for project management issued by the Project Management Institute (PMI). It is the most widely accepted standard for project management in the world and is used as a reference guide by professionals and students alike.

The PMBOK standard defines and summarizes the practices, processes, and terminologies that can be used for a project. It provides a framework for understanding and applying the bodies of knowledge underlying project management. The standard identifies the 49 processes defined in the PMBOK Guide and relates them to the five process groups, which are: Initiating, Planning, Executing, Monitoring and Controlling, and Closing.

The standard is based on best practices in project management and is organized around several knowledge areas, including integration management, scope management, time management, cost management, quality management, resource management, communications management, risk management, and procurement management. It also includes information on project life cycle phases, project management inputs, tools and techniques, and outputs that will help project managers to deliver successful project outcomes.

The PMBOK standard has been widely adopted by the project management community and many organizations use it as a basis for their own project management standards. The standard has also been adopted in many countries around the world and several countries are working on making it part of their national standards.
