The CA Clarity PPM Accelerator for the PMBOK Guide (PMBOK Guide Accelerator) is an add-in that consists of a set of dashboards, portlets, project templates, document templates, processes, and access rights. Use your organization project management knowledge and practices to help you structure your project and define the information needed throughout your project lifecycle.
This add-in provides a starting point from which you can configure CA Clarity PPM to support your PMBOK Guide best practice project management activities. Use this accelerator as is, or let your CA Clarity PPM administrator set up your system to reflect the interpretation and implementation of the PMBOK Guide project management best practices.
The PMBOK Guide is highly descriptive not prescriptive. No requirements stipulate to use certain project management practices. The PMBOK Guide provides you with guidelines that are based on industry best practices. Thus, what is valid for your organization cannot be valid for another. Use the PMBOK Guide best practices that best meet your organization needs. They are generally accepted best practices by project managers in certain global regions.
