PMO registers · the three books of record.
Every Steerco decision. Every issue. Every risk. Every assumption. Every dependency. Held in three audited registers, refreshed every Steerco, available on URL 24/7. This is what good PMO governance looks like — and the artefact a Series Seed investor will ask to see in due diligence.
Every Steerco resolution. Approved, pending, deferred — full audit trail with the verbatim context, options canvassed, and PMO recommendation.
What's gone wrong (issues) and what might go wrong (risks). Severity, owner, mitigation, and status — sorted by impact.
Risks · Assumptions · Issues · Dependencies. The complete log, filterable by workstream. The canonical PMO control surface — what an auditor opens first.
How the registers feed Steerco
The registers ARE the truth. Each fortnight, the Steerco paper is generated from the registers — not the other way around. Tab decisions to be tabled? Pull them from this Pending list. Amber RAID for escalation? Pull from this register. Bottom-up workstream status report? Aggregate the per-WS Done/Doing/Next entries.
See Steerco #1 paper for the rendered output, and the WS2 bottom-up status report for Steerco #2 for the evidence-based per-workstream artefact this register architecture enables.
