Stand up the governance before the program needs it.

By the time governance feels urgent, the program is already improvising it. We stand up the ERP PMO before mobilization — decision rights, reporting cadences, a RAID framework, and vendor governance — so the first consultant arrives to a program that's already under control.

Governance isn't a phase. It's the thing the program runs on from day zero.

The premise

A PMO improvised in month three is a PMO cleaning up month two.

Governance is cheapest and most effective before anything has gone wrong. Stand it up late and the first thing it does is litigate decisions nobody recorded.

Governance bolted on later

Reacting to problems

  • Decisions made, but nobody owns them
  • Status assembled ad hoc when asked
  • The SI sets the terms by default
Governance stood up first

In control from day zero

  • Every material decision has a named owner
  • A cadence that runs whether or not it’s asked
  • You hold the vendor to the contract
Building blocks

Six instruments. One controlled program.

A PMO isn't a meeting or a tracker — it's the set of controls that turn activity into a program you can steer. We stand up all six before mobilization.

Decision rights & RACI

Who decides what, and who only needs to know. Every material decision has a named owner before the program needs to make it under pressure.

Reporting cadences

Steering, program board, and workstream rhythms — a calendar of when status moves up and decisions come back down, set before week one.

RAID framework

Risks, assumptions, issues, and decisions logged in one structure from day zero — so nothing important lives only in someone’s inbox.

Vendor & SI governance

The terms of engagement with your system integrator and software vendor — SLAs, escalation paths, and how you hold them to the contract.

Stage gates

Defined go/no-go checkpoints with explicit entry and exit criteria, so phases advance on evidence — not on the calendar or on optimism.

Program controls

Baselined scope, schedule, and budget with the change-control discipline to defend them — the instruments that tell you when the program is drifting.

The stand-up sequence

Live in weeks, not after the fact.

We move fast on purpose — the PMO has to be running before the implementation does. Four steps from charter to a governed program handed to your leadership.

01

Charter & operating model

Week one

We draft the program charter and governance operating model — purpose, structure, roles, and the bodies that hold the program to account.

02

Decision rights & cadences

Week two

We wire decision rights to real roles and schedule the reporting cadence, so the first steering meeting has an agenda and an owner.

03

RAID & controls baseline

Week three

We stand up the RAID framework and baseline scope, schedule, and budget — the controls the program will be measured against.

04

Live on the platform

Handover

The whole operating model goes live on AMIGO and is handed to your program leadership — controlled from the first consultant’s first day.

Run on the AMIGO platform

A PMO that runs, not a binder that sits.

Most PMO setups end as a governance binder nobody opens. We stand yours up inside AMIGO — stage gates, RAID, cadences, and decision logs all live — so governance is something the program actually runs on, with an audit trail that writes itself.
