Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

The target/desired maturity level for a function represents the level of sophistication or performance that the organization aims to achieve by the end of a specific evaluation cycle. This maturity level is set based on the organization's strategic goals, resource capabilities, and the PMO's roadmap for growth.

By defining the desired level of maturity, the organization ensures that it has a clear objective for improvement and can track progress over time. Achieving this level requires addressing gaps in processes, people, and technology.

I'm going with option C. Seems the most logical choice to me. Although, I do wonder who comes up with these exam questions. Sometimes they're a bit... quirky.

But shouldn't it be less than the current maturity level to show improvement?

Option D is just silly. Why would the target maturity level be less than the current level? That doesn't make any sense.
