Organizational Process Assets

The performing organization's own resources—such as plans, procedures, templates, records, and knowledge bases—that teams rely on to plan, manage, and deliver projects.

Key Points

  • Internal to and maintained by the performing organization; tailored to how that organization works.
  • Include items like plans, processes, documents, and knowledge repositories.
  • Used across project processes to drive consistency, quality, and efficiency.
  • Evolve over time as lessons learned and best practices are captured and reused.

Example

When starting a new project, the project manager uses the companys standard project management plan template, a risk checklist, contract templates, and the lessons learned repository from similar past projects to shape the approach and reduce rework.
