Project Management Office (PMO)

DoIT’s Project Management Office (PMO) was established to coordinate, oversee, and provide stewardship of IT-related portfolio and project management. The objective of the PMO is to:

Provide Project Management services and oversight for select IT projects.
Set the standard, provide the tools, and be the resident advocate and model for good Project Management practices.
Align project activity with UMBC’s strategic plan.
Provide project updates and reports to DoIT and campus leaders.
Assist with discovery and project intake via the Idea Form

The DoIT PMO uses Smartsheet to track projects and portfolio management. Read more about DoIT’s Project Definitions and Proposal Process here.
