PMO Implementation
The Project/Program Management Office (PMO) is the fastest growing concept in project management today and is the key to effective implementation of project management across the organization.
Some advantages of the PMO include:
- Reduced cycle time
- Reduced delivery costs
- Improved quality of project deliverables
- Early identification and proactive management of project issues and risks
- Better containment and management of project scope
- More opportunities to leverage and reuse knowledge
- Improved accuracy of estimates
- Better communication with clients and stakeholders
- Improved perceptions of your organization by your clients
- Improved people and resource management
- Reduced time to get up to speed on new projects
Thinktank Consulting is convinced that you should start considering PMO implementation as soon as your company decides to shift to the project management approach. More and more companies today realize the benefits of the project management methodology, however they still assume that hiring of one or more experienced project managers will address all the issues.
Having implemented PMO at several organizations Thinktank experts can meet with your company representatives, provide a comprehensive walkthrough of the PMO models available, establish the requirements that fit your team and create a PMO implementation plan.
