The PMO Checklist for 2026

Prepare your Project Management Office for the future with 10 core capabilities that separate high-performing PMOs from the rest

Why It Matters

Organizations waste roughly 12% of their investment spend due to poor project performance - a cost that's no longer sustainable. As technological disruption and market volatility accelerate, traditional PMO approaches fall short. To protect the bottom line, organizations urgently need PMOs that drive strategic value by connecting strategy to execution and optimizing portfolio decisions for measurable business impact.

How prepared is your PMO to evolve from cost center to strategic partner?

What You Will Learn

  • Assess your PMO against 10 essential criteria that will matter most in 2026
  • Identify capability gaps where your organization may be falling behind
  • Access targeted resources matched to each capability area
  • See how modern PMOs are embracing data intelligence and flexible methodologies
  • Understand the evolving expectations for strategic PMO leadership
This checklist introduces the core capabilities that will define successful PMOs in 2026 and beyond. Each section includes thought leadership and recommended resources to help you identify your biggest opportunities for improvement.

Use this guide to benchmark your current state and consider which capabilities deserve your focus for greater organizational impact.
