The roadmap
P3O is a model to deliver your change initiatives more effective and efficient.
If projects and programs are the villages and cities, the P3O model is connecting these, providing a structure (the roads) delivering the right information and knowledge in every place and at each level.
Plant some seeds…
It could start with just one office/department or person supporting a project or program collecting the best practices, templates, tools and (resource) information relevant for each project when you would start one.
An effective way to include others and adding value to at first portfolio/project managers is using their (informal) network meetings within your organisation
It is a pragmatic Bottom Up approach.
Check the environment Use the P3O model to identify your environment.
Which functions and services are available, by whom and where. Look at the big picture, however start with small steps.
Do project/program/portfolio managers and decision makers get the right information? When, how? Is it accurate. Is it what they require?
From P3O perspective you will also analyze the information flow and whether the timing of each step is logically when you look at e.g. when Board meetings take place.
Take time to grow…
Can I use P3O if I don’t want to build this structure from strategic perspective?
Yes. In practice the P3O model starts ‘as is’ and as an initiative by someone who sees value in using the model. This is not always ‘top down’.
When benefits of the adjustments of the existing P3O model are visible and aknowledged other departments and top level might become interested in using it. The organic way of using the P3O model.
So you can start small, however it is useful to identify the ‘as is’ state of your P3O model throughout the organisation, identify the main issues, and to have a picture of what you would like your model to be in the future.
Good luck & Enjoy!
