An IT Project Management Office (PMO) is a team of people within an organization devoted to helping improve the way technology projects are managed and completed. PMO staff generally share ideas, thoughts, resources and best practices with an organization's various IT departments to assist them in the planning and delivery of quality products and services. Over time, a PMO can become a valuable source of guidance and documentation within an organization, helping to ensure project successes as well as keeping the organization moving toward consistent IT goals and objectives.

 

How a PMO is designed and staffed depends upon many factors, including organizational goals, strengths and cultural mandates. A PMO can be designed to simply serve as a source of information; it can have some supervisory responsibility for projects; or it can be given governance over the people who are managing an organization's IT projects.
