PMO-MI
Team mapping a process on a glass wall
How it works

Six steps. One outcome you can act on.

Every PMO-MI® engagement follows the same proven flow, adapted by tier. You always know what's next.

The framework

Built for PMOs —
single or multi-PMO.

AIPMO's integrated frameworks combine 6 assessment tiers and 24 service domains.

The dual dimension

Maturity AND impact.
Never collapsed.

Most maturity models stop at structure. PMO-MI scores structure AND value delivered, separately.

Maturity

How well your PMO is structured, governed, and consistently delivers its services.

What it measures
  • Presence, quality, and execution of processes
  • Tools, roles, and frameworks
  • Performance across 24 service domains
  • Operational stability and risk mitigation
Why it matters: A mature PMO has the foundation to scale, adapt, and support projects efficiently.
Impact

The tangible value your PMO delivers across the organisation.

What it measures
  • How effectively the PMO influences decision-making
  • Strategic outcomes and project success enhancement
  • Stakeholder perception and trust
  • Business value contribution
Why it matters: Even a highly mature PMO can fall short if services aren't aligned with business needs.
