Organizations around the world are implementing formal project management processes and disciplines to deliver their work initiatives on time, within budget and to an agreed upon level of quality. Part of the ability to execute better, faster and cheaper comes from your ability to implement common processes and practices across your entire organization. Many organizations have attempted to deploy common processes by creating a focused Project Management Office (PMO) and giving this organization varying aspects of responsibility for projects and project management methodology.

There are many potential products and services that a PMO can be responsible for, depending on the needs of the organization and the vision of the PMO sponsor. The group is typically responsible for acquiring and deploying a common project management process to the rest of the organization. However, they can also do much more, including training and coaching, project audits, consolidated project status reporting, project management certification, portfolio management, etc.
