give my an advice to create a project mangement office
Thanks for invitation...
with an answer of Alex Al Yazouri ...
- Choose a PMO Manager (or PMO Director): The PMO Manager must be chosen based on his expertise in managing many projects for the company. The projects that he managed must've been managed using consistent techniques. The PMO Manager can be a senior project manager in the company or one of the executives who was previously a project manager. The PMO Manager must be chosen by the company executives.
- Define the PMO Roles and responsibilities. Usually is main role is to ensure consistency in project management across the organization.
- Handle the logistics (choose a physical office or set of offices to house the PMO).
- The PMO Manager should then choose the team who's going to work with him in the Project Management Office.
- The PMO team will then study all the projects that the company did and is currently doing in order to understand how things are currently done and what should be done to fix them.
- The PMO Team will then define all the project management roles, including that of the project sponsor, the project manager, and the project coordinator.
- The PMO Team will then set the project management methodology(ies) to be followed, and the criteria to select a project management methodology for a project (for example, software projects must use Agile).
- The PMO Team then prepares all the project management templates used for preparing PM documents and PM reports.
- (Optional) The PMO Team must choose a project management tool to be used by project managers to manage their projects. The tool must ensure that all projects can "communicate" with each other, in one way or the other.
- The PMO Team will then brief project managers on how the PMO will function, and how they will be affected by it. The PMO team will then send the project managers all the project management templates that they should use, and will train them on how to use them, as well as how to use the project management tool (if applicable). If the PMO is imposing a new PM methodology, then project managers need to be trained on the new methodology. By the end of this step, the PMO Team must ensure that all the project managers are aware of the new standards when it comes to all areas in project management (communications management, risk management, stakeholder management, etc...).
- Finally, the PMO is officially launched, and it starts monitoring the ongoing projects and the work of the project managers, to ensure consistency in the organization.
