The project management community is currently investing substantially in the development of viable methods to assess and improve project management maturity. This investment often drives a corresponding need to monitor progress-internally and with respect to other similar organizations. To support this need, this research provides across-industry benchmark of project management maturity. Based on a survey of 123 firms, this research determined that nearly 67% of the organizations are currently at an overall project management maturity of level 2 (out of 5) or below. Additionally, the research concludes the level of project management maturity is statistically consistent between industries and among companies of varying size.
