peer agreement (net): +1business/IT project management support Explanation: Usually, a project of any scale with heavy IT involvement, such as developing a new application (or major enhancements) will involve both the IT side and the business side. Activities need to be coordinated, the business needs to test the stuff that the IT dept (or the outsourced IT services provider) has developed, and so on. Both aspects are "projects". As has been said, the "maîtrise d'ouvrage" is whoever has asked for the work. Project owner & project sponsor are both common terms for this, but they are also on the "business" (functional, metier) side of the project. On the other side of the coin, "Maîtrise d'Oeuvre" therefore basically refers to the IT side of the project Hence, as long as the wider context makes it clear that this is a project with both business and IT involvement (such that "IT project" is not likely to be interpreted as, e.g. implementing a new network), I would tend to use: AMOA - business project management support/support for project owners/sponsors AMOE - IT project management support. |

AMOA Explanation: Hi, The post is old, but I bet that many still stumble on the this question. Clearly we are talking about the business part of the project, but I am not sure that AMOA is part of the Management of the Project per sey. To me, AMOA is more like a Business Analyst for the Implementation of the Project. Thus, why not call it : Business Project Implementation Analyst. |
