DESCRIPTION
After having made all (or most) of the possible adjustments when it comes to making processes more efficient (LEAN) and removed or changed the excessive use of resources, there are still more openings to become more efficient. One such opening is through introducing a Project Management Office (or PMO for short). The basic idea is to have a group or a department monitoring company work processes and projects for performance and making sure that the company learns to collaborate and use best practice from previous processes and projects.
