Issues highlighted by Financial Crisis pointed to need for significant change & improvement.

Project Governance - The PMO

Shelf life of PMOs often short - high proportion disbanded in 3 to 5 years. PMOs serve different mandates, have different responsibilities, reporting lines, structures & value propositions - confusion? PMOs increasingly a feature of organisations ….BUT there is no common operating standard.

Various PMO options assessed based on 2 key dimensions - PMO Scope & PMO Services - agreement secured on PMO mandate & responsibilities.

Our Approach:

A Few General Observations on PMOs….

SLIDE 10

Project Governance - PMO Operating Model Definition

PMO Scope pe

Derived from how far reaching PMO activities are across the organisation…classified into 3 alternative Domains:

PMO O Service ices

Selected from multiple potential services organised into 3 Service Categories: Combination of services across 3 categories appropriate for the Bank….BUT introduced

  • n phased priority basis….

PMO Operating Framework

Enterprise PMO appropriate for the Bank:

  • Ubiquity of change agenda
  • Criticality of business engagement & project ownership

 Owner of project & programme management processes and responsible for compliance.  Owner of portfolio & investment prioritisation processes and responsible for administration.  Independently assesses proposed project change requests for project & portfolio impact.  Approves project change requests within PMO delegated approval authority thresholds.  Independently reports on performance & drives the continuous improvement effort.

PM Process - a family of 3 management processes

PM Lite - 3 stage process

  • Low complexity/risk/cost projects
  • Decision on project readiness taken at Gate 1

PM Standard - 4 stage process

  • Medium complexity/risk/cost projects
  • Decision on project readiness taken at Gate 2

PM Plus - 5 stage process

  • High complexity/risk/cost projects
  • Decision on project readiness taken at Gate 3

 Bank has directed that project management standards be aligned with good practice:

  • NSAI has assessed PM Process in 2014 & 2016 and confirmed good

practice.

 PM Process is the Bank standard, with a compliance mandate:

  • PMO monitors and reports on compliance - Audit Division tests

compliance in its project audits.

 Projects propose the management process they wish to apply….but PMO is approval authority.

  • In practice not an area of contention.

Project Governance – Process Summary

PM Process broadly agnostic to IT SDLC process - iterative or waterfall - subject to meeting defined project controls.

“There is no more delicate matter to take in hand, nor more dangerous to conduct, nor more doubtful in its success than…the introduction of change…” Machiavelli

Some Final Comments

The scale & breadth of organisation change is generally underestimated:

  • The operation of temporary project organisations can result in serious

tensions with organisational cultural and structural norms.

  • Project mind-set, processes and techniques can result in serious

tensions with established ways of working & behaviours.

  • Proactive Senior Executive sponsorship is crucial.
  • Experienced professionals to lead projects is essential.
  • Managing resistance by engaging & responding to critics is vital.
