• Resumen

  • Project management has become more than just a supporting role for businesses. For many organizations, it is a relevant part of getting things done, and the many tasks as-sociated with managing projects require more attention than just the scope of work of indi-vidual project management professionals (PMPs). This paper will contribute by showing how through taking standardization as the goal as well as using it internally, the Project management Offices (PMO) will contribute to the maturity level of the organization in terms of project management and increase the sustainability of their business. The core concept of this contribution is the use of Hoshin Kanri (HK) ideas to standardize communication among the process-responsible members at the PMO. Finally, application from a practical point of view is presented and its meaning discussed.
