Project Management Offices
Project management offices can be highly effective central repositories, consolidating project expertise in one place and delivering consistent project outcomes.
However, sometimes a PMO may be required to support a transient entity, such as a Programme or large project. Sometimes not everyone wants or can afford an in-house PMO.
Our consultants support organisations with ‘pop-up’ PMO’s or those that are struggling to realise a return on investment and build a solid business case for their in-house project management office.
PMO Efficiency
PMO-as-a-Service provides you with a PMO’s facilities and functions but with reduced up-front fixed monthly fees and ongoing costs.
It enables you to use pre-defined and configurable processes, governance and tooling and should support successful, repeatable delivery outcomes.
Properly designed and shaped for your business, PMO-as-a-Service will offer an agile, responsive engine for your programmes and projects to focus on managing change, engaging stakeholders and delivering innovation.

How We Can Help
We will work with you to understand what you need from a PMO and develop an appropriate, cost-effective but dynamic PMO-as-a-Service solution. That might be a remotely managed PMO-as-a-Service or a service that you can integrate and manage internally.
The starting point is assessment. This means getting to grips with the kind of PMO-as-a-Service support you need for your projects based on your organisational culture, project methodologies, processes, and aspirations.
We will evaluate your current state and recommend a proven PMO-as-a-Service model tailored to your environment.

This experience has played a pivotal role in our understanding of the potential for PMO-as-a-Service, and the critical decisions to be made about its design and operations, reducing the burden on the business and reducing the risk of delivery.
It also means we are well placed to support the delivery of your PMO-as-a-Service, running, for example, an adoption approach based on the Prosci™ global industry standard for adoption and change management.
