Submit Assignment

You will have two deliverables in this assignment: A PowerPoint Presentation for the assessment and background information described below and a PMO Charter in Word format.

PowerPoint: Assessment

1. Your PowerPoint Presentation should have a Title Page, a General Description of the Company, The Company Vision, The Types of Projects the Company pursues, The Organizational Needs Determination, etc.

2. Use Appendix A in Gerard Hill book starting on page 625 to complete each of the assessment activities (see pages 646-654), including: Organizational Needs Determination, Organizational Culture Examination, Stakeholder Analysis, Current Practices Assessment, Preliminary Functionality Examination, PMO Staff Alignment, and PMO Executive Control Board.

Word Document: PMO Charter

1. In a Word document, create a PMO Charter using the Checklists in Appendix A (see pages 655-656) of Gerard Hill’s book. Make sure you are writing in a paragraph format even though the template given in the book is in a table format. Charters are not tables. Make sure you are creating a PMO Charter and not a project charter!

Upload both the PowerPoint and the Word Document to Canvas.

NOTE: Please make sure you have the correct book version and that it includes Appendix A with all the tables. Page numbers may vary if you have a different version.
