Which P3O model features a single permanent office providing strategic planning and portfolio support?

The Organization Portfolio Office is a P3O model defined as a single, permanent office established at the corporate level. Its primary purpose is to support senior management's decision-making on strategic matters and to manage the organization's investment portfolio. This model provides a centralized overview of all change initiatives, ensuring they are aligned with strategic objectives and that portfolio-level support, such as strategic planning and dependency management, is consistently applied across the organization.

A. P3O model with Hub Portfolio Offices: This is not a single office model; it consists of a central hub office and multiple satellite (spoke) offices.
C. Virtual Office: This model is not a permanent, physical office but rather a decentralized structure where P3O functions are performed by individuals across the business.
D. Flexible resource pool: This is a function or service that a P3O may provide (managing skilled resources), not a structural P3O model itself.
