FY23 Business Plan: First Steps to the Future

The Strategic Framework that the CMAA Board of Directors approved on April 8, 2022, is the basis for CMAA’s FY23 Business Plan.

The new framework sets a mission, vision, and direction for the organization’s future. It is a transformational expression of the association’s historic purposes and looks to a future focused on project and program success, the growth and development of people as program and construction management professionals, and CMAA being the voice of the profession.

Within the new framework, core commitments remain. First and foremost, CMAA remains delivery‐method neutral. Next, CMAA believes program and project success is more likely when program and construction management professionals participate at the earliest points in the project or program lifecycle. Finally, owner engagement is critical to the profession’s continued growth and development.

The strategic goals and core activities for FY23 are:

  • Transform project execution  
  • Shape the profession
  • Establish CMAA as the premier resource
