The most important thing to remember is that they are only being aided by the PMO team; they do nothavecompletecontroloverthe project.Theyaddnothingtotheinitiative. Templates,bestpractices, on-demandinformation,accessto knowledgefrom other projects, and similar resources are frequently provided by a helpful PMO. If the goal is to create a“clearing house” ofprojectmanagementdata that project managers across the organizationcaneasilyaccess,theSupportivePMOistheidealoption. ControllingPMO Controlling the PMO ensures that projects follow processes, tools, and standards.

A controllingPMOcanbe usedinanorganizationto“reinin” activities,processes, procedures, and documentation. In addition to being offered, the organization requires that the help beused.

Professional project managers from the PMO are assigned to organizations’ newly initiated initiatives. Due to the fact that each project manager originatesfromandreportsbacktothedirector’sPMO,thissignificantly improves the professionalism of the projects and ensures a high level of consistency in their execution. This is effective in larger organizations with a culture that frequently matrixes out assistance invariousareas. WhatmakesPMOaGoodManager? Employees in an organization with numerous projects to manage cannot rely on their memories to keep them all organized. Additionally, trying to organize everything via email can only lead to failure.

That is the kind of data that soon outgrows spreadsheets and email threads. Project Management Sohware is the answer when your team has to take project management seriously.
