PMO

​

The PMO is a management structure that standardises the project-related governance processes and facilitates the sharing of resources, methodologies, tools, and techniques. However this critical function is often understaffed and not equipped with the right tools.

​

We believe the PMO should be able to provide the following benefits, if setup and funded correctly:

• a successful project portfolio that focuses on resource availability and corporate strategy ("doing the right things the right way")

• unified project methods and a company-wide standardised usage of software

• freeing up the time and energy of project leaders/project teams, so they can concentrate on important operational tasks

• improved communication across projects and across the entire organisation

• effective transfer of knowledge, applying best practices and minimising errors

• optimised project efficiency, increased project quality and reduced project risk

​

​

Which PMO do you have?

 

• Project Management Office: supporting individual projects

• Programme Management Office: coordinating, identifying dependencies of projects and supporting the transition of outputs to business as usual (BAU)

• Portfolio Management Office: single point at corporate level where all the change initiatives within an organisation are managed.

​

​

Types of PMO

​

Generally there are 3 types of PMOs as described by the PMI:

• Supportive PMO’s

• Controlling PMO’s

• Directive PMO’s

​

​

We can help advise and recommend changes on:

• Governance

• Methodologies

• Dashboards and metrics

• Cadence

• Provide an assessment

• Visualise the future state of your PMO

• Plan deliverables and successful outcomes
