PROJECT MANAGEMENT OFFICE AS A SERVICE

The challenge.
Picture
Managing projects effectively is crucial for business success. Projects are the enablers of change and good project oversight wraps structure around that change to enhance the likelihood of success and delivery of the identified benefits. You want to know:
​
  • what your projects are
  • that your projects are getting done
  • what the risks are across your projects
  • your projects are going return the benefits you are looking for
  • where a project is at risk
  • if a project manager needs help

Why you might need a PMO
How can we help.
A project management office gathers all your organisation’s projects, potential projects (not just technology projects - all) together, sets standard processes and templates for documenting them, presents that information to the decision makers in your organisation so that they can make informed decisions about those projects.  The information gathered:
​
  • creates transparency for your leadership
  • ensures you know what risks and issues are being carried by your projects
  • helps you understands where your projects fit in your strategy and how they enable the benefits you are trying to create in your organisation
  • creates good habits for your project leaders
  • allows your leadership to make decisions about all of these aspects

Typically, there is a significant investment to set up a functioning PMO, gathering information, setting standards, putting systems into place, maturing your organisation to understand how to use and get value from a PMO.  The skills required to set up and run PMO go from administration to senior project manager to specialised PMO.
Our Project Management Office as a Service (PMOaaS) offers a cost-effective, rapid solution to ensure your projects are delivered on time and within budget—without the need for a full-time PMO. We are here to support you, your Project Managers and give you clear visibility as to the health and well-being of your projects. What’s more we can have it up and running within weeks because we’ve done the investing already.

Our PMOaaS gives you the option of a flexible, scalable, and expert-driven approach to oversee project performance from an organisational viewpoint. If you want to focus on what you do best, we will help your team to deliver projects on time, within scope and on budget. ​
As a result of engaging us at any of these levels you get:
​
  • Expertise applied to outcomes: You have access to experienced professionals who bring you best practice and through their direct involvement or coaching, will improve the value of your project investments.
  • Resource balancing: All PMOaaS time is spent on tuning project, programme and portfolio performance, freeing up your team to focus on core project delivery and strategic activities
  • Flexibility and agility: Changes in the scope, scale or direction of your projects are easily accommodated through a base package plus add on services. If you need extra Project Managers, Business Analysts Project Coordinators to deliver directly, we can add these to your team from our pool of experts, while maintaining your visibility through the PMOaaS.
  • Pace and Performance: Data-driven insights enable you to make rapid decisions, reduce bottlenecks and increase project velocity.
  • Cost efficiency: Your overheads reduce as our scalability responds to your project or portfolio delivery demand. Need a PM for eight hours per week or to deliver a specific project? That’s all you are charged for.
