TMS Independent Project Oversight
Per the IT Project Oversight Framework (ITPOF), independent project oversight will assess the degree to which the IT project has established and used the required project management practices documented in the CA-PMF (Project Management Framework).
Independent project oversight will review the project to establish an overall project management capability. Independent project oversight will interview the appropriate department IT management and staff, review project documents, and observe the project team and project activities to determine the degree to which the requirements are being met.
