Project of the Year 2009 honors have been cancelled

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.
