ITPP

What ITPP does

ITPP (IT Project Professional) is a Norwegian-originated best-practice methodology and certification program for managing IT development projects, combining PRINCE2 Agile with Norwegian-context agile practices and structured principles for results, goal, and benefits management. The framework was co-developed by Metier OEC and PROMIS in 2012 and significantly upgraded to Version 2.0 in 2020, which sharpened the focus on goal management (målstyring) and benefits realization (nytte) in response to widespread Norwegian adoption of agile methods. The methodology is positioned to help organizations balance agile flexibility with traditional project tracking, governance, and management reporting.

The commercial vehicle is PROMIS AS, a privately held Norwegian limited company headquartered at Universitetsgata 2 in Oslo (registered office at Lysaker), with 11–50 employees. PROMIS delivers ITPP through classroom-based certification courses at its Oslo (Rebel Arena) location; enrollment is handled through dedicated course landing pages, and the course bundles the PRINCE2 Agile certification with extended modules on benefit/goal management, team and delivery practices, and solution implementation. PROMIS also sells adjacent consulting services covering agile governance, project and program management, quality assurance, uncertainty analysis, procurement, architecture, and testing.

The business operates a sales-led, Norway-only go-to-market targeting both Norwegian public and private sector organizations. Revenue derives from paid certification training and consulting engagements; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company is privately held with no disclosed external funding, no public listing, and an English-language "About PROMIS" page as the only signal of potential internationalization. Distribution is direct (own training infrastructure), supported by a Prolog content blog, LinkedIn corporate presence, and dedicated course landing pages as marketing channels.

Expansion highlights3 records

Direct peers

• Scrum Alliance: Global certifying body for Scrum-based agile training; competes with ITPP for the Norwegian corporate training dollar, particularly where buyers choose pure agile credentials over hybrid PRINCE2 Agile offerings.
• APMG International: Accreditation and examination body for multiple agile and project management certifications including PRINCE2 Agile; comparable as both a certification route and an alternative training partner for the same Norwegian buyer.
• Scaled Agile (SAFe): Largest global agile-at-scale training and certification franchise; directly competes for the same Norwegian enterprise training and agile governance budget that ITPP targets, with a broader framework footprint.

Broad incumbents

• Project Management Institute (PMI): Global standard-setter for PMP, PMI-ACP, and related credentials; competes in the same IT project management certification category, especially with Norwegian enterprises and government buyers that prefer PMI-issued credentials.
• DNV: Norwegian-headquartered certification, training, and standards body; comparable in the training-and-certification category for Norwegian enterprises and public-sector buyers, with a much broader portfolio.
• Sopra Steria Norway: European IT consulting group with significant Norwegian public-sector business; comparable in agile and IT project management consulting/training for the same frame-agreement-driven Norwegian public sector buyers.
• PeopleCert (PRINCE2 / AXELOS): Owns the PRINCE2 and PRINCE2 Agile trademarks that ITPP builds its curriculum on; comparable because it sets the underlying certification framework, exam structure, and licensing economics that ITPP depends on.
• Capgemini Engineering (Norway): Global consulting firm with Norwegian practice offering agile transformation, project management, and certification-aligned training; comparable as a broader incumbent pursuing the same Norwegian enterprise agile governance budgets.

Regional players

• Bouvet ASA: Norwegian IT and digital consulting firm with comparable frame-agreement presence in Norwegian public sector; comparable because it competes for the same enterprise IT consulting and training engagements that ITPP/PROMIS targets.
• Metier OEC: Norwegian consulting firm that co-developed ITPP with PROMIS and co-authored the V2.0 upgrade; highly comparable in offering, geography, and customer base, and acts both as partner and adjacent competitor in Norwegian IT governance consulting.
