• The Virtual Communities Project (VCP) began in 2007 to examine
the wants and needs of members and how value is currently
delivered.
• Goal of the VCP is to identify opportunities to gain operational
efficiencies and improvements.
• PMI’s new virtual communities offers global project management
members an unparalleled knowledge base—all in one location.
• PMI’s virtual communities will have consistent design and search
capability across PMI.org, and features such as blogs and wikis to
create the ultimate collaborative community.

VCP Background. . .
• To that end, the outcome of PMI’s new virtual communities
is centered on member value and providing the global
project management community with an unparalleled
knowledge base—all in one location.
• Leveraging state-of-the-art enterprise architecture, PMI’s
virtual communities will have consistent and inviting site
designs and navigation, search capability across PMI.org,

• Three driving forces for delivering value and
solutions for members:
1. Create an environment to exchange and contribute project
management knowledge regardless of where members
live and their backgrounds;
2. Create an environment for members to network in a
particular field to solve issues, and build and advance
their careers;
3. Deliver a minimum baseline of member value upon
entering the PMI portal for knowledge and interaction.

VCP Background. . .
• As early as 2002, PMI’s strategic plan, review of member
satisfaction surveys, market research and delivery methods
reviews showed access to technical information and networking
were the leading needs of PMI members.
• Given that PMI’s strategic plan and alignment methodologies
were still in development in 2002, the first step taken was
around community development transformation
• The PMI board took action in creating new geographic and
virtual community models, and in the creation of a knowledge
strategy that would align itself to the strategies of PMI to better
serve its members.

Editor's Notes

  • #3 Opinions and experiences based upon our own implementation, others may have different results. Fact No money for ProductSuite solution & certification, need to create own solution Outsider looking in. Overall financial/operations background. Liked OPM because business integration. Unaware of any personal limitations, did not know what OPM3 experts knew, so didn’t know where experts did not go and became pleasantly surprised with what I learned. Single OPM3 license to develop in-house solution, able to offer this tools & service to member agencies Fiction Implementation with temporary & ultimate delay thus creating new vision. OPM3 is assessment tool and don’t need it to implement organizational project management.
  • #4 Over 12 years as healthcare executive profit/loss responsibility and 10 years IT project management at Fortune e-50. Newbie to public sector Given the task to create an OPM solution so proceeded fwd unknowing what was ahead
  • #5 Broke down OPM3 into simplest parts Decide what parts are critical Create idea on what solution should look like Start to work
  • #6 Many good Project Mgmt Maturity Models based upon institutional paradigms… PMI Gartner UMT Consulting Group Imagine the advantages of having an organizational specific, aka, – DIFFERENTIATED- PM maturity model that is consistently applied over long term. Many large institutional firms are chock-full of overall PM Knowledge…but… “Imagination is more important than knowledge”. Einstein
  • #7 OPM3 is a framework, it is a tool… not a panacea. Customization created some key insights that Im going to share with you.
  • #8 This is what was done in Tx. No sales propaganda, provided free with OPM3 knowledge foundation purchase. Understand Organizational Project Management Business operations impacts Project capability delivery Project & Business result metrics Customize assessment & improvements By virtue of doing this you gain intimate knowledge of OPM3 specifically Create improvement plan & metrics Applicable to your organizations Online tool & electronic database Control Efficient Costs differential Training & marketing
  • #9 Gain knowledge on organizational project mgmt…ask business operational questions You already know project management concepts but need to learn what drives the business. Project capabilities delivered to business translates into business success Remember 70’s Lt. Columbo technique…use your less threatening demeanor to uncover business details Learn to talk the talk and walk the walk as business manager Organizational Project Mgmt Virtual Community of Practice Global reach Business & operational minded Sr. Level PM’s Various OPM models
  • #15 VCP is PMI’s most critical initiative this year, because it will – and already is transforming our organization. To support VCP while it’s projectized and once it’s fully operational, 14 business sub teams were formed to redefine their processes to include support of virtual communities. Departments within PMI already have processes in place to support virtual communities. Volunteer leaders like myself have to transform and shift our focus from association management to knowledge strategy. VCP is about support; PMI is alleviating volunteer leaders’ burden of managing administration and operations to enable us with delivering knowledge and content that will drive member value. VCP will fuse community, knowledge and technology and the member’s experience will be consistent across all communities resulting in normalized member value.
  • #18 Need single license to move fwd practice and learn OPM3 Able to perform multiple assessments in same organization for free
  • #19 Practice using Online assessment. Learned structure of Capabilities & Improvement Directories Understand your service delivery and Business Prior to meeting with our CIO, we knew pain points and able to answer rapid fire OPM3 questions CIO was not able to focus on formal presentation but went straight to “what’s in it for me”?
  • #21 In creating business plan had to consider cost/benefits, used internal project methods. Strategic & tactical executive pain points Interviewed our IT folks on possibility of enterprise vs non-enterprise database I did not consider an exit or conversion strategy…if environment changes what are you going to do and what we did?
  • #23 We were able to use MS Access and I would be administering the database I or our admin would issue login ID and survey number after group orientations They would have 30 days to complete online assessment They would select PM, SME, Analyst, IRM They could anonymously request overall results, we had separate database that would not identify staff email address
  • #28 Local administration allows you to warehouse your own results vs PMI warehouse Control security and confidentiality of your problem areas by maintaining own warehouse You control when and what Best Practices you wish to integrate with new releases of OPM3. May not want Program, Portfolio in your assessments Improvement paths not disrupted with new releases of OPM3 Able to use single OPM3 license to create database that is shared across the same organization Create reports that better suited for your organization. I would schedule follow-up interviews to validate trends or responses
  • #30 Examples of simplifying language
  • #33 HHSC immature organizational project management maturity HHSC not ready for Program & Portfolio Domains (Best Practices & improvements)
  • #34 Before trying to simplify I discovered simple patterns exists Standardize Measure Control Improve patterns exists
  • #36 Once you have understanding of the SMCI patterns that exists, you can move fwd to simplifying the content to suit your organization
  • #38 Best Practice 2880 and respective Capabilities
  • #39 Hide Capabilities & Improvements compatible with environment risk tolerance appetite.
  • #40 Simplifying and customizing requires the greatest amount resources, consider scaling this work to fit your budget parameters, timeliness and strategic/tactical improvement initiatives. Jamie Northrup commented genius on my simplifying SAM and I thought I was just being lazy and didn’t want to do a lot of extra work. Ernie could only work on OPM3 25% of the time but had help of 2 admins on creating database of questions
  • #41 Development costs were not costly enterprise solution. No need for OPM3 consultant as I had to learn it myself. As I was internal agency staff, I had first hand knowledge of operations vs outside consultant.
  • #43 Managerial staff attends group orientation and performs own assessments on their time availability Project team staff attends group orientation and performs own assessment on their time availability I perform analysis, trends and irregularities to prepare recommendations on results Convene Management team to review results and confirm improvement areas and decision to move fwd Convene Project Team members to review results and confirm improvement areas and decision to move fwd
  • #45 Enterprise PMO: to work with Mgmt and Project teams to create acceptable Improvement plan and prepare business plan for client’s use
  • #46 Proposed time line for servicing multiple agencies. Preferred to have go/no go decisions before getting too deep into 2nd agency.
  • #47 Some OPM3 1st Ed. Capabilities & improvement paths may have changed or become obsolete with OPM3 2nd Ed. Updates Tx State Legislature mandates consistent implementation of project management methodology, oppty for member agencies to assess their effectiveness with PMI standard
  • #48 OPM3 Product Suite staff have license to use the OPM3 tools, however, if this person leaves, ability to use your organization’s data also leaves.
  • #51 Our OPM3 project was shelved and was able to leverage OPM knowledge in other areas
