Running the Successful Hi-Tech Project Office looks at the PO as a line function, responsible for the coordination and the infrastructure necessary to manage multiple projects. The book covers all major PO responsibilities, including project portfolio management, project oversight, methods, and tool support, staffing and competence development, and promotion of the project culture. It explains that the objective of the PO is to complete all projects to best achieve the overall goals of the organization.
A "how-to" guide to establishing the Project Office as a methodology for managing multiple development initiatives within your organization. It presents the PO (Project Office) as a model for use in a wide variety of organizations, especially in research and development environments. As more and more forward-looking firms adopt the project form as their preferred way to organize development work, the need for you to co-ordinate the use of scarce resources and align initiatives becomes quite evident. This volume discusses the essential techniques, templates and tools used by successful managers and consultants to achieve maximum project control and performance of dedicated persons and groups.
