ABSTRACT:
In the traditional model, the program management office (PMO) is structured as an adjunct to IT management, collecting status from the project teams and presenting reports to management. While the traditional PMO tries to work to resolve schedule issues or other roadblocks, it does not participate in project execution and as such can not provide leadership or guidance.
This white paper discusses the benefits of an agile PMO. Learn how to ensure that your PMO is tailored to fit the structure and demands of today's complex organizations. Discover the differences between agile and traditional PMOs and explore why agile development is being applied to traditional PMOs to enhance organizational visibility and flexibility. Gain insight into how an agile PMO minimizes organizational risks, increases active organizational management and allows for greater flexible planning.
