PMO Key Initiative Full Overview Event, 03.Mar.2025

Introduction

If you are considering a Project Management Office (PMO) for the first time, then you may be thinking: “Another department? Is this really necessary?” It is a struggle in many companies to get a PMO approved and then, once approved, for it to be accepted. Some stakeholders worry that having a PMO that oversees projects will unnecessarily slow down the process. Bottom line: The benefits of a PMO are often unrecognized.
There are many good reasons for the introduction of a PMO, especially in larger companies with increasing project volume and complexity. Someone in the company needs to keep track of all the processes, changes, conflicts, risks and make decisions. Senior management and department heads usually have other, equally important things to do. And the project managers take care of their own projects by definition. So, who should take care of the not so little task of multi-project management?
