The Complete Project Management Office Handbook, 2014 3 Edition
The Complete Project Management Office Handbook extends these modern project management concepts and considerations into the scope of project management oversight, control, and support. It recognizes the need for an organizational entity—the project management office (PMO)—to perform in a capacity that achieves one or more of these three operational objectives. It positions the PMO as a business integrator—whether in a role that is limited to managing multiple projects as a program or expanded to serve as a business unit representing the organization’s project management environment—to encompass all the people (project stake holders), processes (methodologies and practices), and tools (automated systems and work aids) that manage or influence project performance. In either case, the PMO helps both the project manager and the relevant organization to understand and apply professional practices of project management and to adapt and integrate business interests into the project management environment with which it is associated.

Since the previous edition of this handbook issued, I’ve had the opportunity to engage a few more clients and business program participants to discuss and apply prominent project management office (PMO) concepts that are considered within this publication. I was pleased to find that guidance from this PMO handbook enabled many managers across diverse industries to develop a common frame of reference in their efforts to examine and implement solutions that produced PMO capability and business results within their organizations.
During the past few decades, modern project management precepts have emerged to instill a vitalized, professional approach to project management across countless industries.
