Formulación del Plan de proyecto para el Diseño de una PMO en 4G Architecture utilizando el marco de trabajo PMBOK® Sexta Edición

Abstract

This Master's Final Project was developed to address the problem: identified at 4G Architecture, where differences in project management practices across its business units, the use of non-standardized methodologies, the absence of consistent monitoring and control mechanisms, limited knowledge management, and weak alignment between project execution and organizational strategy hinder the strengthening of organizational project management capabilities. In response to this situation, the objective: was to formulate the Project Management Plan for the design of a supportive Project Management Office (PMO), based on the good practices established in the PMBOK® Guide Sixth Edition, the Organizational Project Management Maturity Model (OPM3®), and the PMO Value Ring methodology. To achieve this purpose, the method: consisted of an applied extension project supported by a documentary analysis of the current project management practices within the Cladding business unit, a qualitative organizational maturity assessment based on OPM3®, and the integrated application of the selected methodological frameworks. As results: a comprehensive Project Management Plan was formulated, integrating the Project Charter, the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), the project schedule, the project budget, and the subsidiary management plans established by the PMBOK® Guide Sixth Edition. Furthermore, through the application of the PMO Value Ring methodology, organizational needs were identified, stakeholder expectations were aligned, a prioritized PMO service catalog was defined, a conceptual governance model was established, a performance measurement system (KPIs) was developed, the expected organizational benefits were estimated, and a strategic roadmap was structured to guide its future implementation. Finally, the discussion: demonstrated that the integration of the PMBOK® Guide Sixth Edition, OPM3®, and PMO Value Ring provides a robust methodological approach for formulating projects aimed at strengthening organizational project management capabilities, providing 4G Architecture with a structured basis for decision-making regarding the future design and implementation of a supportive PMO while offering a methodological reference that can be adapted by organizations with similar characteristics.
