IMSI TECH 2005 Conducting Effective Project Management Maturity assessment Interviews Steve J. Holmes, PMP and Robert T. Walsh Integrated Management Systems, Inc., Ann Arbor, MI Abstract Assessments of a company s Project Management Maturity are dependent upon the ability of the assessors to extract meaningful information from members of the subject company s Project Management community and intelligently evaluate that information to draw meaningful conclusions. Typically, the assessors will be outside consultants, hired for their reputed expertise and experience, with no intimate connection to the subject company or its employees. While this unbiased contributes to the objectivity of the assessors observations, it poses challenges in acquiring and validating information. Interviewing is one of the tools used by assessors to compile the full breadth of information about the subject company that is needed to complete the Maturity assessment . Face-to-face interviewing may be the most significant tool in the assessor s toolbox, as it provides a bridge across the relationship-gap between the assessor and the subject company employees.
