A project management office has become a strong project driving structure used today to help business units control their projects more effectively. The need to capitalize on one's investments and yield a healthy ROI has put a strong focus to deliver projects on time and with in budget. The lack of structure in an organization can inhibit a project from running smooth and cost effectively. A well structured PMO can help set best practices, resource management, provide a centralized location for all project documents and tools, provide a governing body to help select, deploy, track and measure projects.

There are three basic PMO models which include:

1) An internal consulting division that can guide, assist and help others manage projects
2) A centralized organization structure which has project managers and project coordinators who are assigned to projects.
3) A hybrid of the two models above where individuals can act as coaches for some projects and lead a project from larger scaled, complex projects.

A PMO should be designed to closely resemble the organizational culture to ensure a smooth transition to a PMO division in your organization.
