Roadmap to Project Management Office (PMO) and Automation using a Multi-Stage Fuzzy Rules System

The Project Management Office (PMO) has proven to be a successful approach to enhance the control on projects and improve their success rate. One of the main functions of the PMO is monitoring projects and ensuring that the adequate processes are applied if a project starts to slip. Due to the high complexity of the parameters involved in choosing the actions to take depending on the type and status of the projects, organizations face difficulties in applying the same standards and processes on all projects across the organizations. In this paper, the authors will provide an overview of the main functions of the PMO, suggest a roadmap to start a PMO function within an organization and the authors will propose an architecture to automate the monitoring and control function of a PMO using a multi-stage fuzzy rules system.
