Starting Budget: $1,000,000
Starting Team: 5 people: 2 programmers (full-time), 1 lawyer, 1 HR professional. And you, the PMO lead.
1) Choose an AI Model area:
a) Risks, b) Finance, c) Schedule / Resourcing, d) Reporting / Communication
2) Background: You are a semiconductor PMO. You have understaffed and overstaffed departments. Projects are cyclical and it is not clear just how many people are needed where and when. You need to organize people by complex allocations based on their expertise and work needed. CEO gave you $1 Million but you must show results in 8 months or your team will lose 50% of your budget next year.
3) Choices: democratically, choose your next step and spend:
i) Give 75% to programmers to develop a resourcing model. Give 25% to the lawyer for reviews.
ii) Give 50% to programmers, and 50% to HR to make a resourcing model project. Meet all of them weekly to review. Ask the lawyer to attend weekly meetings.
iii) Use 50% for an Enterprise AI (like ChatGPT, IBM, or Co-pilot). Give the other 50% to the lawyer and HR person to review ethics and deliverables.
Risks:
i) Lose (-$800K) by: Major schedule delay. Data Breach.
ii) Lose (-$800K) by: Major schedule delay. Legal Concern.
iii) Lose (-$800K) by: Data breach. Technical breakdown.
