Whether a company has a leading PPM application or inhouse developed tools, PMO Dashboards can help management, the leadership team, and all those involved in or supporting project efforts to quickly and easily see the status of the top projects of the organization. A key part of any kind of dashboarding, PMO or otherwise, is the policy surrounding the dashboarding. Key questions to answer include:
- Who prepares the dashboards? Who are they intended for?
- What are the dashboards, ie where does the data come from? Why is it important?
- When are the dashboards prepare? When are they viewed and reviewed?
- Where can the dashboards be found? And, where can the details behind the dashboards be found?
- How the dashboards are prepared? What threshholds determine project status (good, caution, trouble)?
- Why are the dashboards being prepared? What is the benefit?
Dashboarding offers convenience and clarity and can be useful to all those involved in the projects of the PMO.
