• Meisterplan: PPM software vendor focused on Lean Portfolio Management. Named technology partner of PMO Solutions and the platform implemented for Australian Payments Plus; enables PMO Solutions' delivery rather than competing with it.
• PMO Global Alliance: Global PMO industry body setting the PMO Value Ring methodology and PMO-CP/PMO-CC certifications. Ecosystem partner and certification authority to PMO Solutions rather than a direct competitor, but operates in the same PMO professionalisation space.
