| What is the Chapter Project Management Proficiency Award (PMPA)?
The PMI Regina / South Saskatchewan Chapter established the
award in 2005 to promote and recognize Project Management
"best practices", and increasing awareness and recognition
of Project Management excellence and success within our community.
This award differs from the PMI International POYA as:
- the competition is local and the submission process is
simpler and requires less effort.
- submissions will be evaluated based on responses to specific
questions that conform with a project management "best
practice", demonstrating the Project Manager ability
to manage the components of the project triangle including
scope, time, and cost.
- all project types, sizes and duration are encouraged to participate and compete.
- A potential of 6 awards will be issued in the following categories for each small (up to $100,000) and large (>$100,000) project :
- Volunteer & Non Profit Organizations
- Business Organizations
- Student Projects
The award will benefit the project management community
by providing :
- the finalists with the opportunity share their "best
practices" framework in managing projects
- the membership audience with the opportunity to see how
others use their "best practice" framework to
manage projects
- a foundation to influence Project Manager's to eventually
submit their projects to the PMI International POYA
Projects submitted to the 2008 International
POYA or those having received an award from other professional
associations are exempt from competing in this award.
