About our PMO as a Service

Our PMO as a Service (PMOaaS) capability is designed to provide comprehensive PMO services to our clients through a managed service approach, ensuring delivery according to agreed Service Levels. We leverage a team of highly experienced PMO specialists, tool subject matter experts, analysts, and associates to offer a cost-competitive service that can be easily scaled up or down based on client requirements.

We provide flexibility for our clients, allowing them to define their desired deliverables, reporting formats, and tool sets. Alternatively, we offer a standardized "out of the box" service, which includes pre-established templates, tools, processes, and methodologies to streamline project management and maximize efficiency.

What is included in PMOaaS

Direct end-to-end project support from a project management team that takes full control and responsibility
Adoption of best practice project management methodologies, templates and tools and the provision of project execution assistance
Education on the use of the processes, templates and project workspace, with coaching on individual projects and assistance in addressing challenging projects
The development, maintenance and storage of project templates and/or project documentation

How does it work

Analysing your specific needs for a tailored service

Our experienced team will work closely with you to assess your organisation's project management processes, goals, and challenges. By understanding your unique requirements, we will develop a tailored PMOaaS offering that aligns seamlessly with your business objectives.

Collaborating together with your key stakeholders

We actively engage with your key stakeholders, ensuring their involvement and alignment throughout the project lifecycle. Our experienced PMO team members will work closely with them to understand their requirements, expectations, and objectives.

Establishing best practices

We will collaborate with you to develop and implement standardised templates and reporting standards, providing clear visibility into project progress, documentation and performance. Our PMO team will also work with you to define Service Level Agreements (SLAs), ensuring mutual understanding of expectations and delivery commitments.

Conducting a shared induction process

We implement a collaborative induction process that involves key stakeholders and team members. This shared induction process allows us to establish a solid foundation for the project by ensuring that everyone involved has a clear understanding of the project's objectives, scope, deliverables, and timelines.

Commencing delivery of PMOaaS

Once the initial planning and preparation stages are complete, we embark on the delivery phase of our PMOaaS. Our experienced PMO team who are equipped with deep expertise and industry best practices, will take charge of overseeing and supporting your project management initiatives.

Optimising the delivery

To ensure the highest level of service quality and performance, we conduct regular reviews and feedback sessions as an integral part of our PMO delivery. These sessions allow us to gather valuable insights from key stakeholders and PMO team members, enabling us to identify areas for optimisation and fine-tuning.

What are the benefits?

Cost effectiveness

Our PMOaaS offers cost-effectiveness through competitive pricing, leveraging blended teams that allow for fractional deployment, optimizing resource utilisation while delivering exceptional value.

Managed risk

According to the APM, over 50% of PMO’s fail within the first 3 years. Our PMO experts are highly experienced in successfully establishing PMO’s across a wide range of industries.

A ring-fenced service

Our PMO service is highly integrated, but fully ring-fenced. This reduces the risk of PMO resources being utilised on other tasks in your organisation.

Best practice application

Once established, our PMOaaS can ensure that any projects, programs or portfolios within your organisation follow standardised processes and procedures, with consistent reporting.

Risk mitigation

Leveraging our PMOaaS will mitigate the risks of cost overruns, lengthening timescales, uncontrolled scope, unsatisfactory controls and reporting and non-compliance with company standards.
