PMO Governance & Methodologies

PMO interacts with many stakeholders inside and outside the organization. This interaction needs to be defined and governed properly through a governance model. The governance model or framework ensures creating value through a systematic approach by identifying stakeholders, understanding their interests and defining their roles and authorities. The governance framework typically ensures alignment to the organization strategy through appropriate assignment and delegation of authorities, periodic performance reviews, clear reporting lines and escalation process. This governance model is usually an abstract level which is detailed in methodologies and guidelines to ensure consistent and repeatable approach. PMO methodology typically contains policies, processes, KPIs and templates. We at Bakkah have the necessary expertise to support your business through governing, standardizing and developing portfolio, program and project management methodologies.
