SCAFFOLDING EFFECT
Reduce cognitive load
Organizational project management. It elevates project management from individual capability to organizational capability, enabling cross-project resource optimization and experience accumulation.
Anchor fast decisions
Single project management relies on individual capability; multi-project management relies on organizational capability. The PMO elevates project management to an organizational function: portfolio governance (which projects to select), resource coordination (where people come from), methodology promotion (unified approach), performance monitoring (dashboard), and knowledge management (experience accumulation), achieving cross-project optimization and capability compounding.
