The Operations Portfolio Management Office (OPMO) is made up of three core pillars: Portfolio & Program Management, Process Improvement, and Organizational Change Management. These pillars collaborate across Operations to support project delivery, optimize processes and systems, and prepare the university community for change.

Strategic Priorities/Pillars
The OPMO enables Yale Operations to improve the effectiveness of critical, complex core processes through:
Strategic Focus – Ensure that initiatives are aligned to the Operations Strategic Plan, have the necessary resources and capacity, and are backed by university leaders.
Delivery Excellence – Foster project delivery by providing expertise across pillars, structures for governance and decision-making, and standard tools and training.
Cross-Functional Collaboration – Establish connective tissue across Operations by promoting a “One Yale” culture, involving diverse sets of stakeholders, and advancing a people-first approach to change.
