Propuesta para el diseño de una oficina de gestión de proyectos (PMO) en el Centro de Gestión Agroempresarial de Oriente SENA Vélez con base en los lineamientos del PMBOK® Sexta Edición

Abstract

The Centro de Gestión Agroempresarial de Oriente SENA Vélez currently has projects formulated and managed from the programs of the technological plan, SENNOVA, and Entrepreneurship, which are developed from the areas of: infrastructure, training, entrepreneurship, and the research, technological development, and innovation system (SENNOVA); these projects present weaknesses in the implementation of good practices, significantly affecting their time, scope, and cost. In this context, the present work aims to propose the design of a Project Management Office (PMO) at the Centro de Gestión Agroempresarial de Oriente SENA Vélez based on the guidelines of the PMBOK® Sixth Edition, using as a method the analysis of the organization's specific needs and characteristics through the realization of a diagnosis on the organizational maturity status of the entity regarding the management of good project management practices, in which the need to standardize processes, implement best practices, and give proper management to lessons learned was identified. The above allows us to contextualize that project management is a key element in the success of any organization, especially in the business environment, in this sense, the implementation of a Project Management Office (PMO) emerges as a fundamental tool to ensure effectiveness and efficiency in project execution, thus accommodating terms such as planning, scheduling, scope, and project execution, which ultimately would be used as an appropriate way to increase the possibility of achieving the expected results and goals of the projects (Kerzner H. , 2022).
