  • A Career Pathway/common set of job roles
  • A set of Competencies
  • A signpost for Development opportunities specific to job roles
  • the criteria and process to obtain Accreditation as a Government Project Delivery Professional.

This interactive document explains all aspects of the framework and enables project delivery professionals, and those interested in becoming project delivery professionals, to explore the different roles within the profession.

The Government Online Skills Tool is in the process of being rolled-out across departments. This can be used by project delivery professionals to evaluate their current skills and identify areas for development for both current and future roles that they aspire to.

The PDCF was developed by the IPA, as the home of the project delivery profession, and project delivery representatives from all the main government departments.

Published alongside the PCDF is the Project Delivery Functional Standard. The standard sets expectations for the direction and management of portfolios, programmes, and projects in government.
