Keep key projects on budget, on scope, and on schedule.

Most organizations have several key projects in the works that will be critical to meeting goals, but many lack the project management skills to keep these initiatives aligned and on track.

• Does your organization use a standard project management methodology and tools across projects?
• Are you able to identify project management expertise within your organization to lead vital programs?
• Is project management a desirable or respected position within your organization?
• Is your organization realizing the return it expects from priority projects and initiatives?

 Keep key projects on budget, on scope, and on schedule.

A project management office is one strategy that has helped many organizations advance vital initiatives—in an efficient and cost effective manner.

A project management office is an organizational entity that resides between upper management and an organization’s project managers. In this position, it acts as a conduit of communication—receiving strategic direction from leadership and providing vision and guidance to project managers, as well as coaching, mentoring, and common tool sets and techniques for those tasked with leading projects.

A program management office can be particularly helpful for managing initiatives that:

• Involve resources from more than one office.
• Are related to board or senior leadership priorities.
• Require significant investment.
• May take longer than six months to complete.
• Will transform a process or procedure vital to your business operations.
