Building a PMO & Governance Framework to Unify IT Delivery
The Challenge
​
A mid-sized enterprise client faced growing complexity across its IT project portfolio, with dozens of disconnected initiatives, varying levels of project maturity, and no consistent governance structure. Delivery timelines slipped, resource conflicts were common, and visibility into cross-functional program dependencies was limited. The organization needed to bring order and discipline to its project execution—scaling from small IT efforts to large transformational programs.
​
Our Solution: PMO Establishment & Governance Advisory
​
We provided a blend of strategic advisory services, experienced PMO consultants, and hands-on delivery support to build a scalable Project Management Office and Governance Model that could grow with the business:
​
-
Assessment of Current Project Landscape - Performed a maturity assessment across ongoing projects and programs to identify bottlenecks, risks, and process gaps across governance, resourcing, and reporting.
-
PMO Framework Design - Defined a tailored PMO operating model, including roles, responsibilities, reporting cadences, and toolset recommendations (Jira, MS Project, Smartsheet, etc.). Created standardized templates for project charters, status updates, risk logs, and KPI dashboards.
-
Governance Model Implementation - Established multi-tier governance—from project-level steering committees to enterprise portfolio reviews. Aligned decision-making structures with strategic goals and funding processes.
-
Resource Planning & Demand Management - Created a unified view of resource allocation across projects, enabling better forecasting, reduced resource conflicts, and more efficient prioritization.
-
Training & Enablement - Provided hands-on coaching and training for project managers, business leads, and IT stakeholders to embed governance practices and promote adoption of standardized delivery methods.
