For this assignment, you must use the scenario and the framework from the Week 2 assignment to design a Project Management Office (PMO).
Begin by ensuring the organization in your scenario has sufficient complexity and volume of project management to justify a PMO. You may need to adjust your vision to include multiple locations, each with multiple projects that include cross-functional members within the project team. You may also choose to add divisional or departmental management structures that oversee projects related to specific objectives for that group of projects.
Use your scenario to complete the following instructions:
Include a brief introduction about the organization and its strategy, mission, and vision. Limit your content to be no more than one page.
Identify the issues and opportunities leading to the need for a PMO.
Insert a section called PMO Charter, where you will state the following:
Executive overview and background
Purpose of the Charter
Mission, Vission, and Strategy
Role and purpose of the PMO
Scope and areas the PMO will manage
Structure diagram identifying the layout of the program and project management
Code of Ethics
Standards and procedures to be instituted and managed by the PMO
Details about the specific roles and responsibilities in each area, including the relationship with different types of projects.
Provide the organization’s structure of the PMO and hierarchy level within the organization’s structure. (PMO Director, Portfolio, Program, and Project Managers)
Detail the roles and responsibilities within the PMO (also include PPfM, PgM, and separate projects) in the form of a roles and responsibilities matrix.
Describe an appropriate framework, relevant procedures, and appropriate standards. Include important templates; some may need to be included as appendices to avoid extending the assignment beyond its maximum length.
Offer brief details about how you would initiate and execute the PMO.
Outline the templates and standards for project planning and executions, like communication tools, PMIS, etc.
Length: 12 to 14 pages, including supporting tables and images
