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.

PM Process is the Bank standard, with a compliance mandate:
compliance in its project audits.
Projects propose the management process they wish to apply….but PMO is approval authority.
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
The scale & breadth of organisation change is generally underestimated:
tensions with organisational cultural and structural norms.
tensions with established ways of working & behaviours.
