Fractional PMO & Delivery Leadership

Your organization is scaling. Your delivery systems aren't keeping up.

We build, not just advise.

Most organizations outgrow their delivery systems before they realize it. Centerline embeds senior delivery leadership to close the gap — without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.

Senior delivery leadership, on your terms.

We recommend the model that fits your situation — not the most expensive option. Every engagement is scoped, scheduled, and designed to fit around your team's existing rhythms.

2–4 hours / week

Advisory

Senior delivery perspective on demand. PMO health checks, escalation support, and strategic oversight for organizations that need an experienced voice without a full-time commitment. A standing check-in, async availability, and presence in key meetings.

1 day / week

Fractional PMO

Active delivery leadership, one day per week. Framework development, portfolio governance, team enablement, and executive reporting — the full PMO function without the full-time cost. Structured delivery work and portfolio reviews built around your team.

2 days / week

Embedded

Your de facto delivery lead, two days per week. Embedded inside your team — attending standups, running governance, building frameworks that keep working after the engagement ends. Deep operational partnership, not external oversight.

What to expect when you engage us.

01

We learn your context.

What's breaking down, what's at risk, and what success actually looks like for your organization. No assumptions, no pre-packaged frameworks.

02

We build the right engagement.

Advisory, Fractional PMO, or Embedded — we recommend the model that fits your situation. You know exactly what you're getting before we start.

03

We embed and build.

Not a report, not a slide deck — actual delivery infrastructure that keeps working after we're gone. The goal is always a team that doesn't need us.

The Delivery Leader Your Organization Needs

Centerline Consulting was founded by Janessa Jameson — a Principal Program Manager with 20+ years building the delivery systems that allow complex organizations to execute at scale.

Before founding Centerline, Janessa led $75M+ program portfolios at AWS, drove enterprise Agile transformations for 1,500+ person organizations at The Home Depot, and directed zero-downtime post-merger integrations at Expedia. She started her career as an independent consultant — and two of her clients converted her to a full-time employee based on the work she delivered.

"Most organizations don't have a delivery problem. They have a clarity problem. Get clear on what needs to be built and in what order — and execution follows."

— Janessa Jameson, Founder, Centerline Consulting
