The Challenge
As your business evolves, so does the complexity of your organizational initiatives. Internal teams may face multiple projects and priorities, each with varying goals, timelines, budgets, requirements, geographies, resource needs and more. Without the proper structure or support in place, juggling these projects effectively becomes extremely challenging, often leading to decreased project success, overextended budgets and reduced overall business performance. So, how do you ensure your projects are set up for success? Through a well-designed PMO.
What is a PMO?
A PMO, or Program Management Office, is a group or department within an organization that manages all processes, methods and technologies used for the successful planning and execution of programs and projects. PMOs control project documentation, governance standards and more.
Why Establish a PMO?
Establishing a PMO can be instrumental in helping to manage project costs, optimize and measure project performance and ensure projects are aligned with strategic goals. By providing centralized management of the tools, technologies and processes needed to support projects at each stage, PMOs successfully alleviate administrative burden from project teams, establish financial controls and provide structure that allows teams to effectively and efficiently do their jobs.
How Can a PMO Benefit My Organization?
Effective PMOs help make projects easier to manage, measure and evaluate on performance.
