Not at all. Wehen the process is created you do not need to review it against the PMBOK Guide. You need to review it in terms of the reality. On the other side PMBOK Guide is just that, a guide. We use things that are not part of the PMBOK Guide. At least that is the approach I have used from long time ago due to I am in charge of all related to process creation and implementation in the work places were I have the pleasure to work.

Dear Sergio
Do you usually review project management processes as a result of the new editions of PMBOK Guide?

Hi Senthil, While preparing for PMP, I made my notes on excel worksheet. All the 10 KA – the chart, 47 processes in (pmbok5) in the same order, within I made notes of learning's, experience that I come across and refer those notes at regular intervals. I also resonate with Kiron – use it as a cure for insomnia. Saving Changes...

The PMBOK is part of the foundation that the framework we use was built on. (PMBOK, Change Management [OCM], DMAIC...) I rarely access it directly. Saving Changes...

What is interesting about all the answers to Senthil's question (great question, Senthil) is the unanimity of seldom, if ever use of the PMBOK.
I wonder if PMI recognizes this and what their response would be to PMBOK having any practical use for us as field practitioners.

James I think this is true for almost all certification 'handbooks', which the PMBOK essentially is. I've read the BABOK once. Certifications, in my opinion, is worth as much as the paper they are printed on and we do it because it is required by the industry. I am yet to find any certification that makes you do your job better hence the fact that these types of books/manuals are left gathering dust after the certification is done.
