Organisational process assets are entities that can be used to influence the success of a project. Policies, procedures, guidelines, formal and informal plans, templates, lessons learned documents, and even historical information come under the organisational process assets.

 

 

They may also include completed schedules, earned value data, and risk data. Any updates to the organisational process assets are handled by the project team members.

 

 

#1 Processes and procedures

These are the processes and procedures the organisation uses for performing project-related costs.

 

 

Examples of this may include :

It also includes Standard guidelines, proposals evaluation criteria, work instructions, and performance measurement criteria.
