The “Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide)” is an acknowledged standard within the project management profession. A standard is defined as a formal document that outlines established norms, methods, processes, and practices. In a manner similar to other fields such as law, medicine, and accounting, the knowledge encapsulated in this standard has developed from the recognized best practices of project management professionals who played a role in its creation.

The initial two chapters of the PMBOK® Guide present fundamental concepts pertinent to the project management domain. Chapter 3 acts as the benchmark for project management, encapsulating the processes, inputs, and outputs regarded as best practices for the majority of projects most of the time. Chapters 4 through 12 deliver an extensive guide to the project management body of knowledge, elaborating on the standard by detailing the inputs, outputs, tools, and techniques employed in project management.

The PMBOK® Guide provides directives for overseeing individual projects, defines project management along with associated concepts, and delineates the project management life cycle along with its corresponding processes.
