Bridge PMO Assessment Services provide your management team an independent review and assessment of the health of a specific program, individual projects, or of PMO maturity in process, services, organizational structure, and standards. The objective is to highlight opportunities for improvement, leverage commonly accepted practices in the Power Industry, identify strengths and weaknesses, address specific client challenges, identify risks and constraints, and ultimately establish greater value in project delivery through process and organizational alignment with the business.

Our project management professionals will help you to determine project governance and control, drive definition of scope, schedule, and resources, assign roles & responsibilities, manage resource constraints, follow best practices in work breakdown and task planning, create work-effort based schedules, define and manage risks, control issues, and track project actuals to plan through earned value analysis. The end result is compliance to your SDLC delivery processes, improved tracking and proactive management of key performance indices, reduced risk to the business, and improved opportunity for on-time, on-budget delivery.
