UNOPS strategic focus places increased emphasis on national capacity development and sustainable approaches to project management, procurement and infrastructure services. A key objective is to be recognized as an organization that delivers world-class infrastructure and project management, which is both economically and socially sustainable, even in the most challenging environments. To achieve this goal, UNOPS has established the Infrastructure and Project Management Group (IPMG).
Within UNOPS, IPMG’s objectives are to serve the organization’s personnel and partners by broadening their infrastructure and project management capabilities, while disseminating best-practices in both of these areas. Through this work, the group helps facilitate the successful delivery of programmes and projects around the world.
To achieve its
objectives, IPMG has established three interrelated and interdependent work
streams, namely, Strategic Initiatives, Standards and Engagement Assurance.
IPMG is managed overall by the Director of IPMG and supported by a Programme
Support Unit, which provides support in administration, human resources, communication
and finance.
UNOPS has been reevaluating some of its current
workflows and is reimagining how the organization can communicate and
collaborate more effectively in informal as well as formal ways. In this
context, UNOPS is now operating and sharing knowledge through the Google Suite.
