In the PMI-PMOCP® Strategic Alignment domain, the PMO is tasked with aligning PMO capabilities with organizational strategy and innovation initiatives. When a company prioritizes AI as a strategic pillar, the PMO’s role is toactively experiment and integrate AI use casesto demonstrate value and improve project delivery. Establishing a dedicated team within the PMO to explore AI applications supports organizational agility and innovation.

Simply providing training or webinars (Options A and D) is helpful but more passive and does not directly contribute to immediate organizational value or strategic implementation. Requesting executive support for AI initiatives (Option B) might be necessary but is secondary to the PMO’s proactive engagement.

By piloting AI use cases, the PMO can generate lessons learned, build internal expertise, and recommend scalable AI tools for project management. This approach exemplifiesstrategic contribution and continuous improvementconsistent with PMI’s PMO maturity models and the Strategic Alignment domain in the PMI-PMOCP framework.
