PMO Value and Experiences
Organisational success in the contemporary business model is measured by:
- The ability to deliver strategic objectives (achieve alignment),
- Ensuring value for money (efficiency, consistency and prudency).
Often this is while managing resource and time constraints for deliverables and outcomes in a dynamic environment subject to change. Business decision making cycles have shortened, organisations need:
- A range of accurate information obtained quickly,
- Analysis and effective communication to support decision making for projects, program and portfolio levels (where targets are set, and performance is measured),
- A functional Project Management Office (PMO) becomes essential to improve large and complex organisations.
Guests were fortunate to hear from Chris Hughes as he shared his experiences with a range of PMOs and their organisations. He looked at some common questions, challenges, experiences, successes, lessons and thoughts, and discussed these as part of the PMO Community of Practice.
We would like to thank Inside Infrastructure their support of this event.
