We spoke to Quay’s Principal Consultant, Jon Pascoe, to get his insights about why managing the dependencies between teams, budgets, and projects are critical to driving out maximum value and how PMOs play a critical role.
As BAs remain in high demand for complex projects, one of the key parts they play in is ensuring the business understands what outcomes they are aiming to deliver and how ready they are to get started.
