Abstract

The construction sector has seen Project Management Offices (PMOs) become indispensable, charged with the duty of synchronizing project management techniques with the strategic goals of the organization. As the intricacies of construction projects increase, it is imperative to evaluate the functions, advantages, and obstacles related to PMOs. This analytical review amalgamates current scholarly work to investigate the manner in which PMOs facilitate strategic alignment, operational effectiveness, and the incorporation of technology within construction enterprises. Through a thorough examination of existing literature, the research delves into multiple facets of PMO execution, encompassing strategic functions, operational efficiency, workforce dynamics, technological assimilation, and regulatory frameworks. The results demonstrate that PMOs considerably bolster project management proficiency by harmonizing resources with corporate objectives and refining operational workflows through technological innovations. Nevertheless, challenges remain, such as organizational resistance, bureaucratic inertia, and the hurdles PMOs encounter in evidencing measurable value. These obstacles underscore the necessity for flexible PMO frameworks that integrate Agile practices and utilize emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning. Such innovations could enhance predictive capabilities and inform decision-making processes. To fully harness the potential of PMOs, forthcoming research should prioritize the establishment of comprehensive models for assessing PMO efficacy and improving stakeholder engagement approaches. By proficiently articulating the value of PMOs and ensuring their alignment with organizational strategies, construction firms can evolve PMOs from mere administrative support roles into strategic collaborators that foster competitive advantage and sustainable development. This review offers a strategic guide for the effective utilization of PMOs, stressing the significance of aligning their organizational structure with corporate strategies and the dynamic demands of the industry. Through persistent innovation and strategic coherence, PMOs can play a crucial role in enhancing the success and sustainability of construction initiatives within the increasingly competitive global landscape.

Abstract

This research investigates the critical issue of risk management during Project Management Office (PMO) transformation within the Indonesian State-Owned Enterprise construction industry. The study employs a quantitative methodology to identify key risks that impede effective PMO implementation and to evaluate potential mitigation strategies. Survey data, gathered from a diverse sample of construction professionals in state-owned enterprises are analyzed to establish risk profiles and inform evidence-based recommendations. The findings highlight that operational and policy risks are paramount, emphasizing the importance of standardized processes, clear communication channels, and well-defined governance structures. Results further indicate that effective risk management requires tailored strategies that align with the unique characteristics of the organization and the project portfolio. Key strategies include strong leadership support, a robust change management process, and the alignment of PMO objectives with broader business goals. These results are related to previous research and recommendations based on data analysis, but future research with deep dives into the cases and other type of companies are also proposed. This research contributes to a more nuanced understanding of PMO transformation within a developing economy and provides actionable insights for construction industry stakeholders seeking to enhance project outcomes, improve organizational efficiency, and achieve sustainable development goals.
