The aim of any good PMO is to give you the best service that integrates high functional drive with
smooth integration of principles. Here we will see the watermelon concept of projects and how we may use it as an indication or a warning to take action. It refers to projects that
look “all done” from certain perspectives but they remain green when you approach
them for a hands-on assessment. We need to look at those aspects that tell us
how to assess this greenness.

Services that are crucial to your progress
· Achieve criticality in
growth
· Coordinate the various
departments within the organization
· Establish the market
for your goods and services
· Create new avenues for
growth
· Accurate assessment of
the competition
· Identify key areas of
failure and success
· Integrate resources and
material within the organization
Your
growth and vitality are the key factors that help decide all actions within the
company. Removing or revamping areas that are not conducive to growth is
primarily the responsibility of the PMO that provides an independent viewpoint
of the entire situation. This approach also contributes to ‘opening
the eyes’ of the concerned people, who now discover new areas to diversify and
intensify operations.
Reality
begins when the money rolls in and one must overcome the competition if you
want more money to roll in. Assess the strengths and weaknesses of the
competition so that you can change the marketing strategy accordingly. The next
most important thing is to have a self-assessment of the internal working of
the organization, and find ways to improve.
Inputting
large amounts of resources without deploying them in the pivotal areas is a
waste of effort. Use optimum workforce to do the work, keep track of progress
through an inbuilt feedback system. Development is dependent on maximized
efficiency in all the fundamental areas.
Follow up tactics to adopt
· Maintain the standards
that conform to the normal industrial average
· Establish your
organization as the prime agent in your predefined field
· Make changes necessary
to achieve effective key functionality
· Incorporate economized
working techniques
· Get positive feedback
within the organization and outside it
Keep
sight of the industrial operating standards, as this will form the basis of the
working environment. Keep the values of the organization supreme in all areas
of working. Everyone may not have the same capacity or adopt the same
techniques at the work place. Using advice from the PMO, you can incorporate
those changes that will make your organization function better.
At
the same time, one should not escalate costs. The organization can cut costs by
using modern methods of working and automation in select fields of operation.
Use a ballot box or any integrated system to get the feedback from the
employees.
Factors causing failure of PMO

· Lacking in managerial
material
· Insufficient
coordination with the PMO
Integration
of methodology and progress needs a new perspective. Old eyes will see only
what they want; it is the PMO, which determines the new directions.
Implementation rests with the management, of course, but when a new pair of
eyes is always there to guide you, you will be able to make informed decisions
in all areas of work.
Another
reason could be the lack of cohesive steps when you need to take action. People
often shift the responsibility on, and if the necessary decision is not
forthcoming, there will apathy among the workers. This stagnation will result
in unnecessary delays in the execution of work.
Achieving success using the PMO
· Adopting the new
standard for growth
· Close liaison with PMO
· Systematically checking
to ensure high quality
· Regular advice on
maintaining integrity and development
The
PMO has vast experience in implementation of strategy and approaching the new
raised working standards. It helps the management understand how the various
steps integrate with the work, how the company should adopt new techniques and
when would the time be optimal to adopt the changes. It follows up the
implementation with instructions that check the feedback and ensure strict
adherence to standards.
Honesty in approach
All
projects needs a total commitment from all the partners involved. For my side,
you remain assured of the professional, honest and entirely independent
support. Unlike other organizations that will operate only if you “buy another
package” here I am committed to my upfront agreement of avoiding “sell-on”
activities.
Experience dealing with management situation
I
have a great deal of experience in assessing and handling situations related to
management. Put it down to my entrepreneurial agility and the many times I
personally handled ‘red-hot’
situations. Every time the solution lay in the relationships, between the
workforce and management, between the workers themselves and between the
departments that needed ‘something more’ to achieve their aims.
Thus, you remain assured that the watermelon concept of projects and how
to avoid it (red on the inside and green on the outside) – will help you find
solutions faster, integrate better and make the right decisions that are
simple, improve efficiency of the task force and help you adopt economic
methods in
