Publicize PMO and Project Management Tools

Publicize PMO and Project Management Tools

Creating the Publicity Plan is the last step in the PMO planning phase, and it completes the entire plan for executing the PMO. In planning so far, the focus has been on the adoption of components of services that the PMO will offer, such as methodology, standards, and project management tools. Now, attention turns to the services that will be offered. Publicizing those services well is crucial to PMO success. The PMO succeeds in as much as a project manager , teams, and stakeholders make use of the services offered by the PMO. In using the services, the project teams standardize on the use of the methodology, processes, and tools selected by the PMO. These items were selected to solve the organization's project management problems. Once they are used by all projects, the organization should see a marked reduction in the problems the PMO was tasked with solving.
