A Study of the Role of Project Office in Conducting Successful Lagge-Scale Construction Projects

"Project Office (PO)" has been recognized to have a role in assisting project organization for the successful implementation of projects. This study tries to identify the role of PO in successfully conducting large-scale construction projects. The application of and the interest in the methodology of project management (PM) in regard to large-scale construction projects have significantly increased. The trend is fundamentally attributable to the understanding that a PM approach has a great deal of advantages in solving the problems of uncertainty caused by limited resources and unpredictable changes in the environment. However. there is a concern that using a PM approach creates difficulties in obtaining knowledge from past projects as a project can only be defined in terms of its distinctive characteristics - temporary and unique. "PO" is a decision support system that works to effectively transfer knowledge from past projects to a new project. In this paper, the general and practical conditions for the use of PO in conducting successful large-scale construction projects are defined and the specific role of PO in such projects is analyzed.
