How to use the PMO template in Wrike
PMO frameworks and best practices vary greatly depending on the organization and the work that needs to be accomplished. The guide below demonstrates just a few ways a PMO could use Wrike for planning and governance.
Step 1: Create your PMO space
Keep your PMO aligned and focused on the most important work with a dedicated PMO space that organizes all your past, present, and future projects into an easy-to-navigate folder structure.
Step 2: Accelerate with project templates
Accelerate every project initiation with predefined templates and data fields that follow commonly used project management frameworks. This PMO template can be used with Agile (Scrum), Waterfall, and stage gate (PMI) projects. Use as is or customize to reflect your PMO’s best practices.
Step 3: Simplify with project request forms
Streamline your PMO’s project intake and evaluation processes with this template’s two self-serve forms. Capture vital information, including budget and timelines, and ensure every request is seen by the right person.
Step 4: Tackle risk management with RAID log monitoring
Step 5: Gain wider visibility with project calendars
See the full picture of current projects and upcoming commitments with a portfolio calendar that shows all scheduled and ongoing projects. Evaluate scheduling scenarios with a what-if planning calendar to determine the best time for the organization to start something new.
Step 6: Monitor program results with PMO & project manager dashboards
Track the tasks that need the most attention with a central PMO dashboard that highlights items at risk, open issues, and more across the entire portfolio. Empower your project managers to keep their assigned projects on track with a dedicated project manager dashboard.
