Project Management Office

A Project Management Office (PMO) is a group within a business or agency that defines and maintains standards, and ensures a consistent approach to project management within an organization. Successfully establishing a PMO will lead to improved project performance and significant business benefits.

Every organization is different, and each PMO has to work well with its individual organization. GCR has developed a proven, structured approach to implementing PMOs. Whether a PMO simply provides consulting, training and guidance to project managers or whether it provides its own project managers to manage an organization’s projects, GCR can develop the right PMO solution.

Project Portfolio Management

Investment in IT projects should bring positive returns. However, measuring IT projects by cost alone is not enough. Only by calculating project risk and expected return can an organization gain a complete picture of its IT project portfolio. By comparing each project’s risk and return relative to other investment opportunities, GCR’s consultants can help your organization make smarter IT investment decisions.

To improve your IT organization’s project portfolio performance, GCR can help prioritize your business strategies and ensure your portfolio of projects matches your business needs. We can help your organization establish a process for ensuring that all new projects fit within the goals and priorities of your portfolio plan.
