COMPARATIVA ENTRE CUERPOS DE CONOCIMIENTO DE LA DIRECCIÓN INTEGRADA DE PROYECTOS

Abstract

Currently, there are several organizations which have developed a Project Management (PM) methodology in a specific way. Although all the methodologies have the same starting point and because of that they have some similarities, each one has its own way to response to the Project Management. The organizations which are studied in this work are the NCB (IPMA), PMBok (PMI) and PRINCE2 (UK Government).

Besides all these organizations, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has developed the ISO 21500 standard, which is also included by AENOR in the UNE-ISO 21500:2013 standard, called “Guidance on Project Management”, which provides a Project Management guide and could be used by any type of organization and for any type of project, regardless of the complexity, size or duration.

This work is focused on reviewing each one of these bodies of knowledge, including their associated certifications. The structure of each organization is also described, as well as their similarities and differences. Keywords: Body of Knowledge; Comparative Analysis; PM Certification
