Abstract

A Project Management Office (PMO) is one entity that can be used to deliver products and services to internal and external customers by using projects and project management tools and techniques. This study aims to provide an account of how to use a project to make recommendations about how to implement a Project Management Office (PMO). A case study example is used to demonstrate how an IT international company used the OPM3 (Organizational Project Management Maturity Model) approach to: (a) acquire knowledge; (b) perform assessment; and (c) managing improvements. The authors include a discussion about specific PMO implementation steps as compared to the challenges from previous implementations and thoughts about how the PMO after implementation provides value to the organization as well as value to the project human resources. Finally, the authors conclude the paper with thoughts related to the contributions of this study and the associated limitations and applicability to other implementations.
