19. Establishing a Centralized Program Management Office will elevate the following benefits:
PMO is established and qualified engineers are trained
PMO is aligned with Organizational initiatives cascaded from the Strategy and the Vision
Change-management is required and is of a great added value
Centralized monitoring and reporting by the PMO will deliver accurate results
PMO will coordinate projects to resolve all issues resulted from inter-dependent tasks between
projects (most critical)
Day-by-day follow-up and reporting by site engineers will activate the early alert
Instant reporting technique is enabled by mobile devices (i-Pad, smart phones, etc…)
A culture change is achieved by continuous display of projects progress on the Dashboard
