Most of the remaining Practice Areas are a variation in name or a combination of like process
requirements from V1.3. These practice areas are familiar to the old model but do introduce a
continued evolution of requirements that support efficiency in practice.
Examples:
Planning - Project Planning (V1.3)
Monitoring and Control – Project Monitoring and Control (V1.3)
Managing Performance and measurement – Measurement and Analysis (V1.3)
Introduction of the Practice Area – Casual Analysis and Resolution. This traditionally was a
process area that was reserved for Level 4 & 5 (High Maturity) maturity level under V1.3. The
introduction under the new version as a Level 3 practice area introduces the requirements for
conducting and managing root cause practices to prevent the recurrence of identified issues.
