When we’re striving for excellence in the execution of our projects and programmes, what do we mean? IPMA has given its extended definition in the PEB, the Project Excellence Baseline. This model is based on the well-known EFQM model, but is adapted to the field of project- and programme management and after over 10 years of use has been adapted to the model we’re using now.Table of Content: Foreword Executive summary Table of Contents 11 List of figures 14 List of tables 15 Abbreviations and acronyms 16 Terms and definitions 17 1.
