The role of a Project Management Office (PMO) differs greatly across industries and companies; there is no standard PMO model for ensuring success. The most effective PMO structure closely supports a company’s corporate culture, its’ business needs and current Project Management capabilities. This means that a Project Management Office must evolve along with its’ customers need and capabilities.
