Research Program
Research Project Profile
PMI has engaged in multiple research projects working with teams around the world. In 2008, PMI completed a three-year multimillion-dollar research study that was conducted through the Athabasca University in Canada. The study involved 17 teams that conducted case studies with 60 organizations spanning multiple industries and countries. The study proved with statistical significance the value of project management to organizations.
The PMI Research Program
The PMI Research Program is responsible for initiating, guiding and coordinating research taking place at institutions around the world. To date, the program staff have been directly involved in the release of more than 300 publications. For more information, watch the PMI Research Program Overview Presentation.

The PMI James R. Snyder Center for Project Management Knowledge & Wisdom
The PMI James R. Snyder Center for Project Management Knowledge & Wisdom is the central repository for all of PMI's knowledge and literature. This virtual library features thousands of volumes and is the the preeminent knowledge collection devoted exclusively to project management.
Ask-A-Librarian
Members facing a research challenge can turn to the expert staff of the PMI James R. Snyder Knowledge & Wisdom Center for help. Drawing on the latest search strategies and techniques, the PMI librarians will perform a comprehensive search that begins with the impressive holdings of the PMI library, then expands to include the PMI Marketplace and sites across the internet. While the primary focus of the librarians is to serve PMI members, non-members are also provided with some degree of assistance, when time allows.
