We help you improve PMO performance with proven project management consulting and time-tested approaches which have been implemented in hundreds of organizations
PMOs are increasingly being entrusted with more strategic responsibilities. Organizations continue to be challenged with the consistent application of defined project management processes, resource planning, forecasting and other business demands. A well-managed Project Management Office (PMO) can address these challenges in order to ensure successful project delivery. We work with clients when they need to deploy a new PMO, operate a PMO or optimize and enhance an existing PMO to meet a set of evolving challenges, functions and services.
The first step we take in deploying a PMO is to assess the current environment and develop a deployment roadmap incorporating your organization’s culture and operating practices. We work with you to identify, prioritize and establish a set of fundamental PMO functions and services. Deployment includes establishing governance standards, developing the PMO Charter and communications plan, identifying resource needs and performance measures, incorporating the right amount of repeatable delivery processes to fit your culture and improving the competencies of your staff through training, coaching and mentoring. Emphasis is on the PMO providing an organizational entity focused on improving the management of your portfolio.
If project management is not a core competency, consider outsourcing the PMO. Crowned Grace International works in partnership with you to understand your goals and to establish a structure which will achieve your goals. We will evaluate what you currently have in place and will subsidize as required. Or, if preferred, can utilize our customizable toolkit of proven techniques and methodologies. Constant communication, incorporating organizational change management, is crucial to the success and is a core tenet of our PMO operating model. Performance measures are collectively established upfront with you, and progress toward established goals is continually evaluated via quality and performance reviews.
PMOs are consistently being challenged to provide additional value to their organizations. To meet business demands, projects must be completed faster with less money. The business wants more transparency and they look to the PMO to optimize project resources. We can help your organization rise to the challenge.
To take your PMO to the next level, we will first review and evaluate your existing PMO structure and provide recommendations targeted to enhance it. We will develop a transformational roadmap, identifying areas of opportunity and will collaboratively with you create an implementation plan for deployment. Common areas of focus for this type of transformation may include enhanced visibility, level of PM competency evaluation, portfolio resource optimization, demand management of both project and operations work and facilitating organizational change. PMOs offering this level of service govern with a senior management focus on strategic issues and facilitate change across the organization.
