Excellence in Maine Projects to be
recognized
Every year sees Maine produce a number of inspiring and exciting
Projects, and it’s time to honor the best of them.
The worldwide Project Management
Institute, 500,000+ members strong, fosters professionalism in the
fast-growing field of Project Management. The Maine Chapter of PMI
is doing its part, showcasing outstanding Project work done by
organizations of all kinds in the state.
Eligible Projects can be in such
fields as education, business, health care, communications, economic
development, social service, technology, construction, public works,
marketing or any other in which innovation is introduced.
The
Project of the Year 2009 competition gives your organization –
for-profit or nonprofit – the opportunity to earn public acclaim
for doing things right in a Project completed in calendar 2009.
Expert
judges will match POY 09 entries against standards based on PMI’s
Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide)
and adapted by PMI Maine. The judging panel will add its own
outlook to assure that the very best Project performance receives
the highest honors.
Entrants do
not have to be members of PMI, and entries do not have to conform
to the format of the Guide to the Project Management Body of
Knowledge (PMBOK Guide) – although a PMBOK-based format is
provided for guidance in preparing the entry documentation.
This year’s
winners will be honored at a PMI Maine awards dinner in June 2010.
Since POY 02, Project of the Year
winners have been the Cianbro Corp. of Pittsfield, Shalom House of
Portland, the Maine Turnpike Authority and HNTB Corp., USM’s Center
for Entrepreneurship, Unum and Eastern Maine Medical Center.
Additionally, a number of Project of Distinction honors have been
awarded.
PMI Maine members on the POY 09
Project Team are available to assist with assembly of your entry
packet.
