About the PMI Framework

The PMI framework was developed after thousands of years of Projects have been undertaken. For example, Egyptians built the pyramids around 2500 BC and the Chinese built the great wall around 200 BC. Moreover, in the early 1900s, as projects became industrialized, the management approach became more structured. After that, the approach started to be based on more solid tools and techniques.

Around the 1960s, efforts were made to professionalize project management on one hand. And, for instance, to turn it into a specialization of its own by the other hand. Indeed, there are many organizations around the world that have been promoting the “profession”. Likewise, the most known organizations are the Project Management Institute (PMI) and Axelos with the PRINCE2 methodology.
