PMO Service:
– Create a sustainable PMO roadmap based on people and processes

Have your attention on your people and processes when defining services your Project Management Office (PMO) should offer. Get advice on how to prioritise and what to include.

Our blog, Building your PMO – Influence and Position, highlighted that the Project Management Office often fails because of the wrong approach, and it can only be successful if essential issues are considered early. Size, function, and hierarchy play an important role in building a successful PMO.

Building your PMO – Influence and Position

Having a project management office (PMO) can be a big challenge, and it takes much experience to set it up optimally. With the correct implementation, companies can achieve long-term success! Let’s now focus on the Essential PMO services that bring value to your organisation.

When discussing essential services that the PMO should offer, we can focus on two key areas:

– People

– Processes

 

Defining a PMO roadmap that drives value

So before deciding what we want in our PMO, we need to understand the scale of our undertaking.

A PMO can be a large body of work. And sometimes, we can bite off more than we can chew by trying to do everything simultaneously.

So, we recommend focusing on the essential items that will give the best value to the right people at the right time in your organisation. To do this, you need to look at the complete list of services a PMO can offer and prioritise them to deliver what best suits your organisation’s needs.

We don’t need to make this harder for ourselves.

This prioritisation should be collaborative. Following this, you can build a sustainable and achievable PMO roadmap that can deliver real value.

PMO People

Let’s talk about potential PMO People services. Our people, who work in our PMO or receive services from our PMO, must be supported and understand its value.

Direct your attention to some valuable areas like the following:

PMO Processes

When we talk about the process side of how we operate a PMO, its success is measured by how well the processes work, how well they are embedded and how well they bring value to the people in our organisation.

To do this, we can prioritise your most important processes:

As in most areas of project management, there is no “one size fits all”. We at emagine understand that each organisation will have a unique PMO service.

So please get in touch with us to discuss which of our many PMO services suits your organisation.
