Project Registry
Every project, its stage, RAG and sponsor. Pick a current project to work it in the side menu.
Strategy & Outcomes
The connected graph: strategic priority → objective & measure → the projects executing it → benefits realized against target. This is where leadership sees whether execution produced the intended value.
Start with your strategy — the deck becomes the desk (counts a call)
Velora breaks your strategy down into priorities → objectives → candidate projects with drafted intakes, all landing in the intake pipeline for your review and Portfolio approval. Prefer one project at a time? Create it on the Registry and use Draft the intake with Velora on Initiation.
Upload a strategy deck or plan (PDF, image pages, or a text/markdown file) — or choose Paste to type it in.
Project 360
Everything built on this project, in one view — jump into any section to work it.
Portfolio Overview
Across all PMO work you own, sponsor, manage or can view — are we investing in the right initiatives, executing them effectively, and realizing the intended strategic value?
Steering Meetings
The project's formal leadership forum — decisions, direction, funding, resources, escalations and stage-gate recommendations, on a cadence mirrored to your VelorStrategy calendar. Pick a project to open its steering room.
Messages
Velora drafts from the project's history. Nothing sends without your approval. Pick a project to open its composer.
New message
Waiting for your approval
Nothing waiting — scheduled drafts land here.
Sent
Nothing sent yet.
Project Initiation
The projects whose intake you're capturing — pick one to open its project-specific initiation page (capture, business case, assumptions, stakeholders, Go / No-Go), or start a fresh intake. Same layering as Business Cases: the list first, the detail on click.
Name it and Velora helps you draft every field — or open an existing project below to work its intake.
Velora — Draft this intake (counts a call)
Describe the project in your own words — the sponsor, why now, what success looks like, rough budget and timeline. Velora fills every field below; you verify, edit, and save.
Strategic alignment — the investment case: priority → objective → this project
Saved with the intake — realized benefits report back against this priority on the Portfolio.
Sponsor intake — the investment request
Priority = value ×2 + alignment ×2 + (6 − effort) + (6 − risk) · ranks the intake pipeline and scenario planning.
Business case — the investment decision artifact; the Portfolio approval gate reads it · lifecycle runs on Business Cases
Assumptions — what must be true; validate or invalidate as you learn
Stakeholders — who the project touches; emails receive the reports
Go / No-Go readiness check — your honest self-assessment; Velora weighs it in the verdict
Velora — Initiation (each counts a call)
Initiation summary — everything captured in this phase, one report on the record; it feeds Planning and the Portfolio approval gate
Compiled straight from the saved record — no Velora call. Email it, send it to stakeholders, export or print; it stays on the project and reloads here next time.
Charter & Scope
The mandate layer: an approved assessment converts to a project, and its charter is built from everything the funnel approved — twelve sections, your edits, sign-off, and the Kickoff gate.
Plans & Milestones
The delivery layer: a signed-off charter converts to the plan — Velora proposes the workstreams, milestones and resourcing from everything the funnel approved, you confirm what gets filed, baseline it, and delivery tracks against it.
Workstreams
The plan's delivery lanes: each workstream with its owner, window, milestones and progress — Velora proposes them from the signed-off charter; the plan files them; delivery runs them here.
Roadmap & Gantt
The project on one timeline — workstream bars from start to finish, milestone dots on their lanes, critical path flagged, today's line and slips against the baseline.
Risks, Issues & Assumptions
The RAID discipline per project — risks (likelihood × impact), issues that have landed, and the assumptions the plan rests on. Pick a project to open its register.
Outcomes & Benefits
Define the operational outcomes and measurable benefits the project is expected to create, assign ownership, validate actual results and track value realization. Budget and spending remain in Budget Tracking.
Value Summary
The project-level value cockpit: intended outcomes, benefit realization, adoption and the closeout position, consolidated across the value sections. Pick a project to open its value summary.
Adoption & Operationalization
Whether the change actually took hold in the business: adoption of the new ways of working, operational readiness, transition to business-as-usual and the sustainment plan. Pick a project to open its adoption view.
Velora Assistant
Your desk copilot — ask about your own projects, milestones, risks, decisions and finances. Velora answers only from your records and points you to the next action. For open-ended PM strategy, use PMO Advisory.
PMO Advisory
A senior PM advisor for any question — methodology, governance, stakeholders, estimation, vendor management, troubled-project recovery. It doesn't read your desk; for questions about your own projects, use the Velora Assistant. Uses your daily Velora allowance.
Project Notes
Every project note in one place, organized by project — add, edit, and reference. Velora reports saved to a project appear here too. For notes not tied to a project, use Free Notes.
PMO Contacts
Your project people in one list — sponsors, stakeholders, team, vendors. Build it by hand, upload a file, or import your LinkedIn connections export; then email, invite, or attach anyone to a project.
… or paste a list (Name, email — one per line)
Project Files
Charters, contracts, plans, decks — the PMO Desk's own file library, private to this desk. Organize with folders per project.

Free Notes
A private scratchpad for this desk — notes not tied to a project.
Invite Your Team
Bring your project team and stakeholders onto the PMO Desk — each person gets a personal invite from you, pointing at this desk.

Meeting Notes
Photograph the whiteboard or your notebook, paste, or dictate — Velora turns the meeting into actions, risks, decisions and milestones on the project. Nothing files until you confirm.
Meeting Prep — before the meeting: objective, agenda with time budget, questions to ask, watch-outs
Photo of handwritten / typed notes
JPEG, PNG, WebP · max 3MB
Paste or dictate notes
Staged notes — confirm to file them
Nothing staged — capture a meeting above.
Demand — Requests
Every ask lands here first. Capture it, let Velora draft the intake, score it — then it competes for funding at the Portfolio approval gate.
Lands in the intake stage. Or start from the whole strategy: upload the deck and Velora fills this queue.
Intake pipeline — ranked by priority
Nothing in intake.
Business Cases
The demand funnel is layered: Intake → Business Case approval → Assessment & Scoring approval → Convert to Project. This page carries the case layer — strategic case, options, investment & value, execution — with Velora's evidence, benchmarks and verdict backing the call; an approved case hands off to Assessment.
Assessment & Scoring
Two layers: a ranked card per project with its quick priority score (value ×2 + alignment ×2 + (6 − effort) + (6 − risk)) and a summary — and, on open, the full weighted assessment: five areas, ten readiness gates, Velora's decision insights, and the assessment report that carries the decision.
Programs & Value Streams
Related initiatives and projects organized around coordinated strategic outcomes. A program is temporary; a value stream may continue after projects close.
Priorities & Scenarios
The portfolio decision workspace — rank initiatives, weigh evidence, test funding and capacity scenarios, then decide. Scores don't change when testing scenarios; only selection and sequencing change.
3 · Scenario Builder & Trade-Off — toggle initiatives to fund / defer; totals recompute live. Nothing changes until you save a scenario.
Portfolio Roadmap
Consolidated timing and sequencing across initiatives, programs and projects — reads the project Roadmap & Gantt records; it does not create separate schedules.
2 · Strategic Roadmap — every active initiative on one timeline; bars span first to last milestone, dots are milestones
Capacity & Resources
Cross-project demand and supply — over-allocation is how portfolios quietly fail. Underlying assignments stay owned by each project's Resources Tracking.
Investment & Financials
Portfolio investment and financial performance — requested through realized. Project Budget Tracking remains the source for actuals, commitments and forecasts.
Deliverables
Every project's client-ready artifacts — drafted by Velora from the funnel-approved record, saved to the project as branded reports, and sent only on your approval.
Deliverables Dashboard
Every deliverable across every project — the cross-project delivery control view, plus every desk-generated report in one place. The project Deliverables section remains the source of truth.
Actions
The execution heartbeat: each project's open actions — filed from meeting notes, the plan, or added here — plus your personal to-dos, overdue first.
Add an action
My To-Do List
Your personal execution queue across every PMO project — assigned work aggregated from the delivery and control sections. Personal to-dos live here; system items stay owned by their section, and completing one here updates the source of truth.
Project Control Summary
One control posture per project — Risks, Dependencies, Decisions and Change Control in a single view. Pick a project to open its control summary.
Control Lessons Learned
What the delivery controls taught us — risks, dependencies, decisions and change discipline — and the improvements to carry forward. Pick a project to open its control lessons.
Milestone Tracker
Every project's milestones tracked against baseline — pick a project to open its tracker. Grounded in the plan, like the other sections.

Each project's "after:" links — conflicts (a milestone due before its predecessor) and at-risk chains. Pick a project to open its dependency map. Set links on Plans & Milestones.
Decision Center
Decisions are the milestones of governance — log what needs deciding, close it when decided, keep the record. Pick a project to open its decision log.
Change Control
Scope changes against the signed charter — what changes, why, the impact, and your recorded approval. Pick a project to open its change log.
Stage Gates
The formal lifecycle authorization points — what each project must prove to advance, its readiness right now, and the permanent record of every gate decision. Pick a project to open its gate.
Governance Summary
The governance cockpit for a project — current stage and overall governance status; next Project Review, Steering Meeting and Stage Gate; status-report, budget and resource positions; open governance decisions, sponsor escalations and required executive communications — consolidated from the governance sections (owns no records). Pick a project to open its governance summary.
Project Reviews
The periodic project review — health, exposure, decisions, changes, budget and resources, on a cadence, with the review record kept. Pick a project to open its review.
Sponsor Escalation
Risks, issues, decisions and changes escalated to the sponsor — the ask, the urgency, the decision needed and the resolution. Pick a project to open its escalations.
Cross-Function Memo
Decisions, dependencies and changes that cross workstreams and functions — packaged as a memo to align the parties. Pick a project to open its memos.
Budget Tracking
Approved budget vs committed vs actual vs forecast, by workstream — with the baseline moves driven by approved changes. Pick a project to open its budget.
Resources Tracking
People and capacity by workstream — allocation vs demand, ownership gaps and the resource asks. Pick a project to open its resources.
Status Reports
Drafted from the record — milestones vs baseline, RAID, decisions, spend — sent to stakeholders only on your approval. Pick a project to draft its report.
Executive Reporting
The board-and-steering surface — a printable steering pack per project, plus the whole-portfolio pack and Velora's briefs. Pick a project to open its steering pack.
Exec strategy pack — portfolio-level
The whole strategy-execution graph: each priority, its objectives with realized-vs-target, every project with spend and benefit back, and the latest strategy review.
Velora — Portfolio focus (counts a call)
Recent portfolio-level briefs
None yet — run a strategy review or portfolio focus.
Closeout & Learning
Confirm that project value is recorded, operational ownership is established, remaining benefits are transferred for monitoring, and reusable learning is captured before the value lifecycle closes. Pick a project to open its closeout.

The operating method
Roles & Decision Rights
The governance authority record for the desk — who holds which role, who can make which decisions, the working RACI per project, and the forums and gates that govern it. Decision Center records what was decided; Stage Gates record whether the project advances; this page defines who had the authority.
LinkedIn Connections
Turn your LinkedIn network into project people — Velora reads your export and stages every connection for your review before anyone joins your PMO Contacts.
Step 1 — get your connections file from LinkedIn
LinkedIn lets you download everyone you're connected with as a spreadsheet:
- Open linkedin.com → Settings & Privacy → Data privacy → Get a copy of your data
- Choose "Want something in particular?" and tick Connections only
- Click Request archive — LinkedIn emails you a download link (usually within ~10 minutes)
- Download the zip and pull out Connections.csv
The file has name, company, position and connection date. LinkedIn only includes emails for connections who allowed it — you can add the rest by hand on PMO Contacts.
Step 2 — upload it here
Velora stages every connection · you confirm before anyone joins your contacts
Connections with an email stage as ENRICHED; without one they stage as QUARANTINE — confirm them anyway and add the email later on PMO Contacts. Confirmed connections become PMO Contacts you can attach to any project as a stakeholder.
Reporting Schedule
The reporting control center — what report is produced, from which PMO records, when it is prepared, who reviews it and when it is released. Drafts are held for your approval; nothing sends itself.
Governance Reminders
The desk's agents keep the rhythm so you don't have to — here is what runs, when, and what it would flag today.
Escalation Rules
Your thresholds for "this now needs me" — the daily agent checks them and flags breaches on My Day. Rules escalate to you; nothing emails anyone else.
