Giving you rapid set-up of a best practice PMO service
Build your PMO excellence – rapidly and effectively
Want to deliver an effective best practice transformation programme? Do you
have multiple programmes and projects requiring excellence in management
and delivery? Then you’ll want to put into place the most effective Programme
Management Office (PMO) service to drive and support the full remit of your
programmes, projects and workstreams.
The trouble is, for many organisations this is unchartered territory and not a
mature capability. And it’s territory that threatens to be costly to get into,
presenting numerous unforeseen risks.
• Clearly, the goal is to make the PMO effective in a short timescale,
with the ability to drive new initiatives, add value and track progress.
• Then there’s the question of achieving effective visibility and decision
management from the Executive, Programme Boards and delivery teams.
• On top of that: how do you handle the critical role of effective
management of resources and costs?
Execview’s client experience tells us that the goal is to achieve PMO competence
from internal resources as soon as possible. Any external help setting up best
practice and repeatable processes should give way quickly and completely to an
ongoing, self-sufficient PMO team.

Take the right approach from the outset
With Execview Quick Start PMO we first understand the current capability and ‘gaps’ – along with thestatus of different activities. PMOs have multiple roles. In many organisations, the initial focus is onreporting. In more mature PMOs there is a larger emphasis on planning. These ensure that projects and programmes are planned and set-up correctly, with resources and dependencies properlyconsidered to deliver the best corporate outcomes.
In the most advanced PMOs, an additional role embraces mentoring and best practice, to build capability for success. And there’s another dimension focused on mentoring and support, providingproactive support for project managers and their teams. Execview’s Quick Start PMO is tailored toorganisational needs.
Execview QUICKSTART PMO prioritisation
As part of the Quick Start PMO we’ll normally prioritise and agree the plan within the first couple of days,and revisit it with you every month. Visibility and key processes tend to be a priority for most clients, but the need varies according to the issues and starting point. We separate clearly the quick win/highimpact activities in any plan to make the greatest difference quickly.
