Establish an Effective PMO for IT
Over 60% of IT projects don’t succeed – build an effective PMO to avoid becoming another statistic.
Book This WorkshopA lack of, or low-performing PMO often leads to:
- Difficulty in analyzing and comparing project progress and success.
- Wasted resources and resource conflicts.
- A lack of clarity as to where project interdependencies exist.

The benefits of building a high-performing PMO include:
- Reduced failed projects.
- Projects delivered on schedule.
- Projects delivered on budget.
- Increased cost savings.
- Increased customer satisfaction.
