There is a problem with PMO in Project Management. Despite the existence of Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), PMO has continued to face challenges especially when it comes to defining and maintaining standard in Project Management. PMO which is Project Management Office in full is responsible for defining and maintenance of standards for project management. A problem with this department would then affect the standard of the project in general. At the same time, this problem would negatively impact the budget and finish time of projects. At the same time, the problem has affected the quality of the project which can harm the image of an organization or company.

A possible cause of this problem is lack of proper change management. A study conducted by Hornstein (2015), which investigates the importance of change management in project management points out applying change management models as a possible remedy to this situation. Another possible source of this problem is the lack of prioritization during the project. In this case, the implementation of a change management model would also come in handy by ensuring activities are placed in priority throughout the project management process (Hornstein, 2015).
