Abstract
Although many studies have investigated the project management office, and substantial research has also examined product portfolio management, few studies have analyzed these elements together. This paper aims to identify how the project management office can contribute to product portfolio management. The research consists of a case study at a high-tech company where the product portfolio is continuously renewed and that features a well-established project management office. Among the main results, it was observed that the project management office's participation is greater during portfolio review decisions than during decisions related to the strategic planning of products. Furthermore, the project management office supports top management and the project teams in applying financial methods and in the mapping and evaluation phases during product portfolio management activities.
