Before designing or implementing a new PMO, it is essential toinvestigate the root causes of the previous PMO's failureand understand any cultural or organizational resistance. This ensures that the new PMO addresses fundamental issues rather than repeating past mistakes.
Focusing solely on quick wins (Option A) without diagnosis risks superficial fixes. Adopting frameworks (Option C) or tools (Option D) without contextual understanding may miss critical factors that contributed to failure.
PMI-PMOCP stresses the importance oforganizational diagnosis and stakeholder analysisas foundational steps for sustainable PMO success.
