April’s Item of the Month @ PMI Marketplace

Construction Extension to the PMBOK® Guide Third Edition

This book complements to PMI’s A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide)—Third Edition.

Construction Extension to the PMBOK® Guide Third Edition deals with PMBOK® Guide principles as they apply to the construction industry. It takes into account that many construction projects require large amounts of materials, physical tools and labor, and involve many individuals and organizations.

“Construction projects have many moving parts and often times project teams don’t speak the same language or live in the same country, making communication and understanding difficult,” said John Zlockie, manager, PMI Standards. “Global standards such as the Construction Extension andthe PMBOK® Guide are crucial to the profession because they ensure a basic project management framework is applied consistently worldwide. Simply put, they translate project management methodologies into one standard, unified language.”

For a limited time beginning Tuesday, 1 April, the PMI member price will be US$25.25, a 25 percent savings. Order this title online at the Marketplace.
