​​​​​​​​​​​​​COT’s Project Management employs staff that are skilled in program/project management and portfolio management tools and techniques. Project Management ​staff can assist agencies in selecting projects and managing their project portfolios.

Project Management provides the following Services:
  • ​Project Start-up – Assign temporary project managers during project initiation when internal project managers are unavailable. When an agency project manager becomes available, the project will be handed off to the agency.
  • Program/Project Assistance – Provide project management services to projects that are near deadline and need assistance to meet that deadline.
  • Program/Project Assessment – Review a project or program (and the program’s projects) by interviewing key project staff and gathering and analyzing information about the project. The information gathered is used to determine the project’s status, including whether the project is meeting its objectives, whether the project is on schedule, and whether the project is over budget. Information gathered is used to determine what corrective actions should be taken, if any.
  • Project Management Personnel – Assign project managers, program managers, and assistant project managers to projects. This service may be used by Cabinets when internal project management expertise is lacking.
