Organizations, which undergo profound and rapid transformations, consistently choose structuring through projects that have a less bureaucratic character and promote continuous optimization. In order to adopt this structure, they rely on project management offices, which in the meantime create a gap between their establishment and functions. This paper aimed to present an analysis of the maturity using PMO Maturity Cube model into a project office at an innovation pole, to investigate the importance of a PMO maturity model to fill these gaps. The research reinforced the view of the authors of the model, and provided perspectives for future projects.
