As we know, project management brings with it challenges of the most diverse types. The vast majority are usually late, over budget, and worse, often without delivering real value to its customer. We believe artificial intelligence (AI) can make a massive difference in this intricate equation.
However, it is not always trivial to build AI models of any kind, since the critical path for this type of project involves collecting and qualifying large amounts of data. But where to get this data about projects? How to gain insights and make forecasts without supporting labels?
The PM DATA Repository was born precisely to fill this gap. Its fundamental purpose is to make life easier for those who want to do research, build machine learning algorithms and models that can be useful and fruitful as a tool to help project managers.
It is a 100% non-profit initiative, with the pure and simple objective of collecting data on projects from the most diverse segments and making them available for analysis. The data collected does not refer to the supplier company or project client, we are only interested in information related to the planning and conduction of the project. In this way, we imagine being able to help the analyst or data scientist to mine this data in any way he wants, aiming at the development of his AI model applied in project management.

Of course, we also understand that there can be some resistance to sharing this kind of sensitive information about projects and their results, but we envision progress growing and constant support as all of us in the project management area will be benefiting from this spontaneous sharing of information.
We believe that we live in an age where hiding data is not the most appropriate and useful course of action. On the contrary, together we are stronger and can sow seeds for a world of opportunity and shared progress.

PM Data Rep came along to try to be useful exactly in the data availability part! We emphasize, however, that the successful application of data analysis and machine learning in project management requires, in addition to quality data, adequate infrastructure, and the necessary knowledge to interpret and use the results generated by the algorithms.
In addition, it is essential to consider ethical and data privacy aspects, ensuring compliance with applicable regulations. It is for this reason that participants must register to access the insertion of their project data and then also download the database. But their names will not be associated with any project for privacy purposes.
We invite you to participate with us in this project! It is in an ocean of data that machine learning finds its source of infinite wisdom, transforming information into powerful knowledge!
