Programs play a crucial role in organizations striving to maximize benefits and achieve strategic objectives. From initiation to benefits realization, program managers and teams integrate the efforts of related projects to create value greater than the sum of their parts, leveraging the principles of program management.

The Standard for Program Management—Fifth Edition serves as the definitive guide for individuals and organizations seeking to enhance their program management practices. This edition outlines the eight principles that govern behavior within program management practices, establishing the publication as a principle-led standard. Additionally, it introduces a new program management performance domain—Collaboration—and reorganizes content for a more streamlined approach to reading and understanding.

Offered by the Project Management Institute (PMI), this updated standard is a powerful resource for a wide range of organizations, regardless of their project delivery approach. Aligned closely with and building upon the knowledge captured in A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide)—Seventh Edition, it provides clear, comprehensive, and relevant information to improve program management practices.

This standard is invaluable for portfolio, program, and project managers, as well as senior managers and stakeholders. Approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) after a rigorous review process, this standard aligns with other PMI standards, ensuring consistency and quality in program management practices.
