FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT PROJECT MANAGEMENT
An awareness of all the requirements of Project Management - by following either or both of ISO 21500 Standard and Project Management framework can be built within a few weeks. A practical understanding of requirements and compliance needs of the standard or project management may be developed within a couple of months. An expertize for implementation of the requirements of the standard or a project management system can be developed in a few months. All these are based on certain generic assumptions of who, where, when and how of individuals or entities involved in the learning, awareness and practical purposes are.
For existing management systems it ranges from 6 to 12 months depending on complexity, size, maturity and resources.
For any new entity a minimum of 6 to 9 months is required for certification from the time when project management operations have started.
Only certification bodies accredited by ISO (International Organization for Standardization) are authorized to issue certificates on successful assessment of management systems.
Accreditation Bodies for ISO Certification are available across the geographies - covering most of the countries. The number of such bodies available in a specific location depends on the local dynamics such as maturity of the economy, size of the economy, the industry dynamics, dependency on standardization and certification to ensure governance and social commitments, and similar factors.
There is no straight forward answer to this question and remains a dilemma all across. However, it has been observed that hard-working and self-dependent individuals and entities are quite comfortable in achieving their ISO Certifications without depending on external consultants as such.
The usual culture of any organization or leadership may be considered as a guidance for making decisions about engaging external or internal consultants.
Any ISO certificate is valid for 3 years which is renewed for further 3 years after a re-certification review by the certification body.
The underlying condition is that the conformity of requirements as per the ISO Standard applicable is being maintained. Major non-conformities may pose challenges to the validity of the Certificate if not addressed and resolved in an effective manner - to the satisfaction of the Accreditation Body.
After every revision of a Standard, a certain period is allowed for entities to upgrade to the new version of the standard. All new certifications after the date of revision is certified under the new version of the standard. For Project Management - ISO 21500 Standard - was last revised in 2021 - and all future certifications will be issued under this version.
