The Project Management Office (PMO) is a rapidly growing concept in project management. This reference provides comprehensive information that allows the project manager to select the features most appropriate and relevant to their issues, while keeping the full PMO activities in perspective. The book demonstrates how PMO can reduce the costs of projects, decrease time-to-market for new products, increase corporate profits, and ensure project success. It covers all aspects of PMO in a format that is easy to read and understand. It also discusses the motivations for adopting a PMO, including project performance, project manager competency, the organizational desire to excel, and much more.
