Abstract :
Surveys reveal that the higher the organization project management maturity level is, the greater it enhances project performance. However it is vital to first understand the requirements of such a maturity model in the context of the target industry or sector. In this study, we aim to assess the current status of project management maturity model (PMMM) adoption in Malaysia´s ICT industry as an initiative to conceptualize a model for use in the sector. An online survey was carried out to investigate the level of PMMM awareness, its extent of adoption or practices and its prerequisite requirements for use in the ICT industry. Based on our findings, a preliminary framework of the PMMM is proposed in our next phase of study.
