Summary/Abstract: The project management maturity significantly influences the success of project implementation. There is available a number of tools to increase project success, such as international project management standards: IPMA standard, PRINCE2 standard, PMI Standard and associated project management certifications can be used. Other tools of project management maturity assessment are project management maturity models based on the above mentioned standards as well as based on other methodologies. A great benefit is also the concentration of project management know-how at the organization level in the project management office, or at community level in project consulting firms. In the case of economic and social development of cities, municipalities and regions, specialized institutions are created to ensure the implementation of development projects or offer expert advice on the specification of the project objective, plan preparation and project implementation. Such institutions in the Czech Republic as well as in other countries include local action groups and regional development agencies. The aim of the article is to present the above tools on the basis of a literature review and to present the possibilities of their use in case study in the form of assessment of the project management maturity of a selected local action group with the help of project management maturity models.
