The PMO VALUE RING methodology is designed to align PMO functions with the benefits expected by stakeholders. After collecting stakeholders' benefit expectations, the methodology provides alist of recommended functionsthat are prioritized based on these expectations. This approach ensures that the PMO is focused on delivering the highest value according to the specific needs and priorities of the organization.

Stakeholder-Centric Approach: The PMO VALUE RING emphasizes the importance of understanding what stakeholders expect from the PMO in terms of benefits. These expectations are then used to prioritize the PMO’s functions, ensuring that the PMO is delivering value where it matters most.

Function Prioritization: Based on the collected expectations, the methodology generates a list of PMO functions that should be implemented or emphasized. This prioritization ensures that the PMO's efforts are strategically aligned with the organization's goals and stakeholder needs.

PMI References: PMI’s standards, such as the PMBOK Guide and other portfolio management resources, also emphasize the need for alignment with stakeholder expectations to deliver value. The PMO VALUE RING builds on this by providing a structured approach to function selection based on these expectations.
