## Summary
65% of large transformations fail. The cause is usually a PMO that values reporting over results.

## Full Content
Most PMOs are expensive weather stations. They tell you it is raining while you are already wet. Project failure rates for large transformations sit at 65%.

The issue is not the methodology. It is the culture. A PMO should drive ROI, not just produce Gantt charts. Data management alone offers a 348% ROI when executed correctly.

If your PMO cannot quantify the value it adds each month, it is a cost center. Cut it or fix it. Demand real-time visibility and brutal honesty in reporting.
