The concept of Project Management Office (PMO) is gaining popularity across multiple industries worldwide as multiple stakeholders and decision-makers are coming to realise the importance of PMO for the organisation.
Misconceptions of the requirements of setting up PMOs, their roles, governance, and working mechanics are commonplace in organisations that are striving to achieve a higher level of project, programme and portfolio management maturity.
A Project Management Office (PMO) is a group or department inside an organisation that sets, maintains, and ensures project management standards.

Professionals who understand cutting-edge project management ideas can help smooth the transition as PMO matures into a more comprehensive framework.
