• The first project managers and PMOs?

1930-1950-s
• 1939 – first mentioning about PMO in publication as a term
• 1950s – advent of PMOs, predominantly in the manufacturing and defense
industries

management processes to enhance productivity
• PMO – unit to support project teams with admin tasks and document control

advanced project management methodologies and software tools
provided PMOs with a framework to manage projects more effectively.

1980-1990-s
• PMOs evolved into entities that oversaw the governance of projects.
• Implementation of standardized methodologies, ensuring consistency,
and improving the likelihood of project success

1995-2020-s
• The access and connectivity of the Internet have transformed methods
for organizing and performing work.
• The project manager role is filled by a project management professional,
a career specialist.Agile manifesto and techniques of the Agile project
management method appeared.

Invention of “Strategic PMOs”
• The focus of businesses shifted towards strategy

strategic decision-making, and ensure the alignment of projects
with the overall business goals
• PMOs became critical players in the realization of strategic
objectives and increased organizational agility
• PMOs often act as a nexus between strategy and
implementation
• Modern PMOs drive change, optimize processes, and are critical
for fostering a project-centric culture in organizations

The Future of PMOs
• More sophisticated tools to manage projects more efficiently
• Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning may become standard
• Predictive analytics and facilitating decision-making

For projects’ execution or coordination related to…

PMO as the Backbone of IT Projects
• PMO is a unit within IT company that defines and maintains standards for
project management
• PMOs ensure that projects are delivered on time, within budget, and with
required quality
Google's PMO is known for fostering an innovative culture
and keeping myriad of projects under control
Google's PMO key functions:
• establishes project management standards
• oversees all ongoing projects
• ensures resources are allocated wisely
PMO – the glue that holds their innovation-driven projects

21 11/23/2023

PMO in IT Companies has Dynamic Functions
PMOs in IT companies provide:
• projects governance, ensuring all projects align with the strategy
• monitor project performances
• provide necessary training, and manage resources across projects
IBM's PMO played a important role in the development of
IBM'sWatson (AI system) :
• coordinated the collaboration between various teams,
• ensured the necessary resources, training, and support
were available.
Watson couldn't have been developed without the
strategic planning & coordinated execution overseen by
the PMO.
• + more proactive role in decision-making - many PMOs guide strategy,
handle change management, and oversee innovation initiatives

IT PMO of Tomorrow
1. A navigator in dynamic landscape
2. More adaptive PMO - flexible project management approaches
(without sacrificing the alignment with strategic goals)
3. Developing new project management frameworks (i.e. a
combination of the best of traditional and agile methodologies)
4. More strategic role with determining the key projects for
execution
5. More data-centric analytics and approaches
6. Using LLMs and different AI solutions
7. Innovation management role – helping in fostering a culture of
innovation while ensuring that innovation initiatives align with the
company's strategic goals
8. Drivers of strategy and innovations

Take aways – Section #2
• PMOs are the heroes of any company
• PMOs play a vital role in
•coordinating project management
•aligning projects with strategic goals
•ensuring resources are utilized efficiently

Level of Control:

HIGH
Types:

Types of PMOs and their Functions (1/3):
Supportive PMO
• The most flexible type
• Provides a repository of project management documentation, templates,
and best practices
• Offers support as and when needed but with a high degree of autonomy
• Primary function – to act as a resource hub, providing tools,
templates, and training to project managers
• Works well in organizations with a strong collaborative culture (where
centralized control is not desirable)
EXAMPLE – a tech start-up could utilize a supportive PMO
structure, providing its highly skilled and autonomous
teams with the resources they need to manage their
projects effectively without imposing stringent controls.
29 11/23/2023

Controlling PMO
• In the middle of the spectrum of control
• Provides support and requires compliance with specific project
management practices and methodologies
• Offers a balance between autonomy and strict governance
• The most effective in organizations where standardization of processes is
required, but some flexibility is also allowed
EXAMPLE – a software development firm could benefit
from a controlling PMO – ensuring consistency across
projects while allowing flexibility for project managers to
adapt to the unique requirements of their respective
projects.
30 11/23/2023

Directive PMO
• The highest level of control
• Actively involved in all project phases, providing needed resources,
methodologies, standards, etc.
• Main function is to direct and manage projects from inception to
closure
• Ideal for organizations that require a high level of standardization and
control, such as heavily regulated industries
EXAMPLE – a pharmaceutical company with multiple drug
development projects could implement a Directive PMO,
ensuring strict adherence to industry standards and
regulations while effectively managing resources in time
31 11/23/2023

PMOs in Different Organizations
1. Google: Supportive PMO
Google's PMO acts as a resource hub, providing project managers
with the necessary tools, techniques, and training.Yet, the
autonomy is given to the project teams to determine the best
way to meet their project objectives, promoting an environment
that encourages innovation
2. NASA: Controlling PMO
NASA’s PMO provides guidelines and standards for project
management and ensures they are adhered to, but it also allows
flexibility where necessary. Given the complexity and risk
associated with space exploration, this approach enables NASA
to maintain control while adapting to unforeseen challenges
3. IBM: Directive PMO
Ensures rigorous standards are met across all projects, offering
resources and training to project managers to achieve the
company’s strategic objectives

EXAMPLE
Providers of IT
services to
clients
Delivering specific
IT services, like:

services
1. Ensure that the
project is delivered on
time, within budget,
and in a manner that
meets the client's
expectations.
2. Manage the entire
lifecycle of a project,
from its initiation to its
closure, including
stages like planning,
execution, monitoring
and control, and
closure
IT consultancies and
services companies
like IBM Global
Services.They take
on large-scale IT
projects from other
companies, and IT
Service PMO is
responsible for
ensuring that these

executed efficiently
and effectively

2. IT Product PMO
45 11/23/2023

development
projects
• Goal is to
ensure that
these projects
are executed
smoothly and
result in high-
quality,
market-ready
products

unique value to its
users
2. More flexible
approach to project
management, as
product development
projects can involve a
great deal of change
and uncertainty +
iterations
Development of
new features for
Google Search
