What is a project and where do I start?
Projects are complex in nature, extensive in scope, relatively long in duration, and usually involve several functional areas. All projects start as project requests that must be evaluated by the PMO for proper resource allocation. Upon receipt of the project request, a PMO representative will meet with you to discuss your requirements and clarify any questions you may have about the process. The project request will undergo our office's monthly prioritization process overseen by members of the Xavier Technology Administrative Committee and Xavier University's Associate Provost and CIO. If you need the PMO's assistance with your project, please introduce a project request with our office.
If you have any questions or would like to further discuss any idea you may have, please contact us at PMO@xavier.edu.
