PMO Customer Service

05 March 2008

PMO Customer Service

The value of this informal, customer service approach to building influence should not be underestimated. The PMO is most likely to succeed when the entire company sees it as beneficial and turns to its services habitually. And this is the result of good general communication and customer service.

However, in the business world, there is also the need to demonstrate measurable results.

Demonstration of Results

Even in the scientific laboratory, it is very difficult to demonstrate cause and effect. In the business environment, it is even harder. Yet, as the PMO matures and improves its ability to define goals and assess the results, the PMO becomes capable of defining and measuring the results of its services.

There are several keys to evaluating results and presenting them:

Definition must precede measurement.

Measurement must be made before and after the effort.

Many factors must be considered.

The results must be presented clearly.
