Project Management Office (PMO) Development and Support

Implementing a formal project-management process in an organization unfamiliar with a structured approach to project planning and control can present significant challenges. But the difficulties of establishing a PMO are far outweighed by the benefits - consistent company-wide PM practices and a project portfolio that's aligned with strategic corporate objectives.

A PMO can play many critical roles:

• Provide "enterprise" level project-management support
• Act as a project management center of excellence
• Be a centralized resource for project managers
• Serve as a training center for project managers and project teams
• Generate processes, forms, and templates to standardize project practices company-wide
• Standardize how project data is presented to management for decisions and status reviews
