Enterprise Project Management Office

The Enterprise Project Management Office (EPMO) provides portfolio and Project Management of key ADOA-ASET Projects (Strategic, Enterprise & Operational Projects). The EPMO also strengthens program and project management within ASET overall and supports strengthening these functions for all state agencies. Members of the EPMO share common tools/templates and follow national best practices. Furthermore, EPMO Project Managers manage projects to all State processes (PIJ, ITAC, JLBC, APF, APP, HRIS, AFIS, Lean, ITSC, budget cycle).  

EPMO provides knowledge regarding project management processes and tools on an as-requested basis. Project Managers are change agents that follow processes of planning, organizing, motivating, and controlling resources to achieve specific goals applying Waterfall, hybrid, Lean and Agile methodologies. Project Managers provide project status in a variety of methods and time periods to communicate with sponsors and stakeholders on Enterprise projects. Regular team meetings and huddle boards are facilitated to exchange information about issues, requirements, status, and strategic direction.

EPMO manages $40 million in projects for ADOA-ASET on an annual basis, applying process improvements throughout the year.

EPMO fosters best practices in project management through offering educational materials, training, and supporting study groups. We have created a statewide IT document template repository that is available to all agencies and political subdivisions. Please contact [email protected] for access.

The IT PM Center for Excellence will reconvene at a future date. In the meantime, please provide any suggestions on topics and information for inclusion in the meetings at [email protected].
