Would i pass the PMI audit?

 

I have been working in the IT field for well over 10 years and have experience implementing IT projects from idea to completion. I have a Bachelors degree and an MBA and several certifications including CISSP, MCSE, etc... I attended a 5 day PMP course from GlobalKnowledge in 2007 and received my certificate for that class and i now have time to take the exam and would like to take it in about 3 months(Need to refresh my self). 

 

My concern is i dont have a title of project manager, I have been Network Administrator, Senior Security Administrator, Senior Systems Administrator etc... My CIO would come to me and explain a problem and i would have to come up with the solution, get quotes for equipment, work with departments that were involved, create a timeline to implement it, and finally implement the technology. I have several projects that fall into this category that put me over the 4500 hrs mark but i am unsure if this is acceptable for PMI considering i was the one doing everything not just managing it from a high level. Would these projects be acceptable or do i need to work on getting a Project Manager position before going for this exam?

 

 

 

Thanks in advance
