Abstract
Although the pressures of individual project performance can often obscure organizational performance improvement, best practices implemented across a portfolio of projects can provide the greatest overall benefit and eventually help organizations achieve more consistent success.  In spite of ongoing efforts to improve implementation of CII products, many CII member companies are still struggling to apply CII products on real world projects. To resolve this problem and increase the level of implementation of CII products, several resources were created by this research team to enhance implementation, including:      CII Implementation Model     CII Knowledge Structure     CII Knowledge Implementation Index     CII Self-Assessment Guide     CII Best Practices Summary  This research also identified barriers that inhibit innovation and change and contribute to slow industry progress. These barriers to implementation include:      Low familiarity with best practices     Lack of commitment to best practices     Limited emphasis on training and education of best practices     Failure to integrate new ideas and recommendations into organization’s procedures     Limited benchmarking of costs and benefits     Lack of innovation within the industry due to risk aversion   In summary, RT-166 focuses on assessing CII member organizations' implementation effort at the organizational level using the implementation resources provided by this research. Organizations with better implementation practices performed better on capital projects.
