Discover the PM² Methodologies
The PM² Methodologies are methodologies developed by the European Commission and open to all. Their purpose is to enable managers deliver solutions and benefits to their organisations by effectively managing the entire lifecycle of their projects, programmes and portfolios. The PM² Methodologies include PM² Project Management, PM²-Agile, PM² Programme Management, and PM² Portfolio Management.
The PM² Project Management Methodology has been endorsed as the official project management methodology by many EU institutions. It incorporates elements from a wide range of globally accepted project management best-practices.
The PM² initiative is supported by Digital Europe Programme, to bring the PM² Methodologies and their benefits closer to their broader stakeholders and user community.
