SmartProject Compliance to ISO 21500 Framework
Framework-by-framework capability alignment of Wrench-SmartProject PMIS against ISO 21500. Helps Owners, EPCs, and PMOs typically evaluate PMIS compliance during audits, bid prequalification, or enterprise rollouts.
Framework Context (What these standards expect from a PMIS)
ISO 21500 – Governance-level guidance on project lifecycle, integration, and controls
Alignment with ISO 21500 – Project Management Guidance
ISO 21500 focuses on what must be managed, not how. Wrench aligns by embedding controls directly into workflows.
SmartProject Compliance to ISO 21500 Framework
| ISO 21500 Subject Group | ISO Expectation | Wrench-SmartProject Capability |
|---|---|---|
| Integration | Unified control of scope, cost, schedule, risk | Single PMIS data model connecting WBS, CBS, OBS, documents, interfaces, contracts |
| Scope | Controlled definition & change | Scope baseline linked to BOQ, systems, and deliverables with change traceability |
| Time | Planned vs actual schedule control | Integrated planning, progress updates, milestone-based tracking |
| Cost | Budgeting & cost control | Cost breakdown linked to quantities, contracts, progress & changes |
| Quality | Planned quality assurance | ITPs, inspection records, approvals embedded in execution workflows |
| Resource | Allocation & utilization | Resource planning, timesheets, productivity tracking |
| Risk | Identification & response | Risk registers linked to cost/schedule impact |
| Procurement | Contract lifecycle control | Enquiry → PO/Contract → Billing → Variations |
| Stakeholder | Defined roles & communication | Role-based workflows, transmittals, approval matrices |
ISO Verdict:
✔ Strong alignment – Wrench operationalizes ISO guidance into enforceable digital workflows (not just reporting).
