The Enterprise Program Management Office (ePMO)

The Enterprise Program Management Office (ePMO) was chartered in 2010 to improve the overall program management in VA. This is being accomplished through the development and implementation of program management standards, doctrines, methodologies, and best practices. The ePMO is also responsible for improving the planning and execution of the 16 major initiatives (listed below) by working with major initiative owners to validate requirements and ensure the synchronization of resources to transition these initiatives into the routine operations of the Department. The ePMO seeks to revolutionize business processes and foster accountability through clearly defined milestones and integration plans. Additionally, ePMO is focused on the integration of major initiatives into the Department's business lines, resulting in improved access, quality, and performance.
