What is PMI Project Management Framework?

The Project Management framework is the first section of the PMBOK and serves as the foundation for the rest of the book. In short, the project management framework represents the structure used to discuss and organize projects. The PMBOK uses this structure to document all facets of a project on which consensus has been reached among a broadly diverse group of project managers. The PMBOK is not only the document that defines the methods to manage projects; it is also the most widely accepted project management foundation. This document provides a baseline of reference for managing projects and teaching the fundamental concepts of project management.
