# PMO Proposal: Project Management Office for AI Home Directory
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
This proposal outlines a high-level "Project Management Office" (PMO) area within the AI home directory that will serve as a centralized "heads up display" for monitoring and managing all projects. The PMO will provide visibility into project status, progress, and priorities while linking to project-specific high-fidelity tracking systems.
|
|
|
|
## Core Purpose
|
|
|
|
The PMO serves as a strategic oversight function that provides:
|
|
|
|
1. **Dashboard View**: High-level visibility into all active projects
|
|
2. **Link Aggregation**: Centralized access to project-specific tracking systems
|
|
3. **Priority Management**: Clear indication of what to work on next
|
|
4. **Status Tracking**: Overview of overall portfolio health
|
|
5. **Resource Allocation**: Insight into time and effort distribution
|
|
|
|
## Structure and Components
|
|
|
|
### 1. Project Registry (PMO/projects/)
|
|
- Master list of all projects with metadata
|
|
- Status indicators (Active, On Hold, Completed, Planned)
|
|
- Priority levels (Critical, High, Medium, Low)
|
|
- Last activity timestamp
|
|
- Project links to specific tracking systems
|
|
|
|
### 2. Dashboard (PMO/dashboard/)
|
|
- Executive summary of portfolio health
|
|
- Visual indicators for quick status assessment
|
|
- Priority queue for immediate attention
|
|
- Time investment tracking across projects
|
|
|
|
### 3. Status Reports (PMO/reports/)
|
|
- Regular status summaries for each project
|
|
- Trend analysis over time
|
|
- Milestone tracking across the portfolio
|
|
- Risk assessment summaries
|
|
|
|
### 4. Resource Management (PMO/resources/)
|
|
- Time allocation tracking
|
|
- Project dependency mapping
|
|
- Capacity planning
|
|
- Skill/resource gap analysis
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Approach
|
|
|
|
### Phase 1: Foundation Setup
|
|
- Create PMO directory structure
|
|
- Establish project registry template
|
|
- Create dashboard template
|
|
- Implement basic status tracking
|
|
|
|
### Phase 2: Integration
|
|
- Link to project-specific tracking systems
|
|
- Establish update protocols
|
|
- Create automated status aggregation (where possible)
|
|
- Implement priority algorithms
|
|
|
|
### Phase 3: Enhancement
|
|
- Add visualization capabilities
|
|
- Implement advanced analytics
|
|
- Create forecast models
|
|
- Enhance with AI insights
|
|
|
|
## Project Registry Schema
|
|
|
|
Each project entry in the registry will contain:
|
|
|
|
| Field | Description |
|
|
|-------|-------------|
|
|
| `name` | Project name (human readable) |
|
|
| `id` | Unique identifier |
|
|
| `status` | Current status (Active, On Hold, Completed, Planned) |
|
|
| `priority` | Priority level (Critical, High, Medium, Low) |
|
|
| `health` | Health indicator (Green, Yellow, Red) |
|
|
| `last_updated` | Timestamp of last status update |
|
|
| `tracking_url` | Link to project-specific tracking |
|
|
| `owner` | Project owner (for multi-person projects in the future) |
|
|
| `dependencies` | Other projects this project depends on |
|
|
| `due_date` | Key milestone or completion date |
|
|
| `progress` | Percentage complete |
|
|
| `next_milestone` | Next major milestone to achieve |
|
|
|
|
## Dashboard Elements
|
|
|
|
### 1. Project Overview Table
|
|
- Visual table showing all projects with at-a-glance status indicators
|
|
- Color coding for priority and health
|
|
- Quick access links to project tracking
|
|
|
|
### 2. Priority Queue
|
|
- Ranked list of what to work on next
|
|
- Based on priority, urgency, and dependencies
|
|
- Time-sensitive items highlighted
|
|
|
|
### 3. Portfolio Health Indicators
|
|
- Overall portfolio health score
|
|
- Distribution of projects across different statuses
|
|
- Resource allocation visualization
|
|
- Progress toward portfolio goals
|
|
|
|
### 4. Recent Activity Feed
|
|
- Timeline of recent project updates
|
|
- Notification of important changes
|
|
- Activity patterns over time
|
|
|
|
## Integration with Project Tracking
|
|
|
|
The PMO will maintain links to project-specific tracking systems rather than duplicating detailed tracking. This approach:
|
|
|
|
- Reduces maintenance overhead
|
|
- Ensures data accuracy in detailed tracking
|
|
- Maintains the principle of high-fidelity local tracking
|
|
- Provides centralized visibility without micromanagement
|
|
|
|
### Link Types:
|
|
- Issue tracker URLs (GitHub, GitLab, etc.)
|
|
- Project management tool URLs (Jira, Trello, etc.)
|
|
- Documentation repositories
|
|
- Status reporting dashboards
|
|
- Communication channels
|
|
|
|
