Development & Implementation of Project Offices |
|
Project offices increase the efficiency of projects. We set up PMOs (Project Management Offices) in two ways for our clients: as a single unit or in individual phases. We also offer "PMO Outsourcing", a complete interim management solution to help our clients implement effective PMOs fast and efficiently.
+ Definition of the goals of the PMO (raison d'être)
+ Limitation of the PMO to a consultative role
+ Supply of tools, trainings, guidelines and Best Practices for project managers in these business areas or
+ Extension of the PMO to a business unit that additionally monitors and controls projects with project managers as primary staff
+ Definition of the PMO's functions and tools
+ Alignment of goals, strategies, performance and processes + Practice management + Infrastructure management + Resource integration + Technical support
+ Analysis of the PMO's organization under consideration of
+ Staff + Business strategy and goals + Organizational structure + Conventional strength and key competencies + Cultural characteristics |

Project Portfolio Management |
|
Project Portfolio Management ensures that the "right" projects are executed and followed through to completion in order to realize strategic goals as well as to balance the allocation of resources and the risks of the projects.
+ Project selection based on
+ Their strategic orientation + Their importance for strategic business goals + Optimization of project risks and benefits
+ Controlling of project portfolios
+ Prioritizing of projects to achieve an effective allocation of budget and resources + Continuously monitoring and controlling of the project portfolio + Conservation of a "healthy" project portfolio |
|
Project Management Maturity |
|
Based on the level of project management maturity , we can identify where the strengths and weaknesses are within our client's project teams in different business areas and what kind of improvements can be made in project management towards "Best Practices".
amontis aligns its methods with the "Organizational Project Management Maturity Model (OPM3 ®)" of the Project Management Institute (PMI ®).
OPM3 ® identifies with help of "Best Practices" in project management the level of maturity based on rules, standards, applications, consistency and reliability.
This creates the foundation for the improvement goals, which will be aligned with the strategy and the priorities of the organization. |
