Presentation Synopsis |
PMOs have been taking on a more prominent role in their
level of authority, structure, reporting lines and
mandate. Project Management Offices (PMOs) have been
growing and going through change and transformation and
today literature defines PMO types, roles, functions, as
well as their impact on performance. The lifecycle
journey that PMOs go through requires attention since
there is little or lack of knowledge regarding PMO
lifecycle (PMOLC) pertaining to set-up, build-out, and
sustainability.
Due to the evolution of the PMO and there is a need to
cover the lifecycle of PMO which would allow those
interested in building PMOs to learn what is required in
each phase of the PMOLC, the complexities associated
with each phase, and the challenges and rewards. The
PMOLC has not been fully explored nor has it been
discussed in detail; hence, this research makes valuable
contributions to the practicality of the project
management field in general, and sheds light on the PMO
practices in particular.
Further, the research adds valuable insights to the
mechanics governing the establishment of PMOs. Results
will lead us to:
- Determine the PMOLC complexities, shed light on
the nature of each phase, and the skills required to
build each phase
- Determine similar and different challenges in each
phase in the lifecycle
