PRMD #3 Question
From our journey thus far, we have recognized that OPM is more then a simple set of guidelines and practices for the business!!
Given this understanding, how would you propose to inform management that it is in need of an adjustment and how/who would be the first primary point and the introductory statement that you would use to communicate the need?
Critical Guideline for this PRMD!!! (1st part is how/who & the 2nd part is what)
For the two components requested above, address each response in 25 words or less. (Think about using one- or two-word descriptors, key terms, metrics if any, basis, key points or other recognizable terms)
And, be prepared to debate your tri-pod consensus with the other tri-pods!!
(please respond based on your experiences, your research or personal perspective and please offer any citing's or support you may want to share in your response)

Email follow-up with a client on OPM
Jeff Busch PMP
Opening line: From our discussion today, I made note of three areas that I’m speculating would fall in the project delivery arena that are in need of enhancement. Perhaps these would form the start of subsequent discussions. These are not absolute statements of the need, rather initial take-aways from the discussion.
Three areas of possible enhancements noted: • More rigor in the practice of project management that captures project data from a reliable/validated source in which
more accurate reporting can be made. (reflects Stacey’s use of tools/practices) (reflects the legacy systems)
• A project management application or methodology that can be applied on small, non-capital improvement type projects, such as process improvements, maintenance, technology applications, or other departmental activities, such market research/analysis for business case development. This could be a PM-light version of good practices. (reflects aspects of Chris’s project arenas)
• Enhanced project definition at the initial project approval stage or project selection (portfolio process) that could utilize FEL (Front End Loading) to better define project scope, risk, and the business environment, all of which impact project cost and schedule. (reflects the general discussion about project contingency and cost/schedule consequences)
