Programme Support Office

The Programme/Project Support Office (PPSO) can be an effective corporate resource if applied appropriately to provide ‘value added’ services in the project environment. The scope of the PPSO will depend on the size and complexity of the environment requiring the support.

• Some examples of the scope content could be
• Provision of expertise in Planning, Business Case, Risk Management, Issue Management etc
• Central conduit for communications for the project environment
• Centralised Configuration Management
• Audit and guidance on processes

Administrative services to the project environment, including archiving and knowledge management
It is essential that specific terms of reference are applied to the PPSO else there will be a expectation that it will do all the work that others don’t want to do, thereby devaluing its purpose.

Insights can help by assisting you to understand your needs in terms of a PPSO, facilitate the terms of reference applicable to your PPSO, facilitate the processes and procedures and train your personnel to use the facility in the most effective way.

We have a complete set of processes and tools that can be used and will tailor them to your needs.
