I had a few alternate titles for this one. Both seemed a little more obtuse than PMOU which sounds sort of like a project management IOU. If you're headed down this route, I think things have gone seriously astray (and this is one with a basis in reality). It might smell like a charter, all agile like, but a charter is a general roadmap and agreement
amongst the team at the beginning of a project, not a document to enforce how teams interact with each other. That sort of rigidity falls apart very quickly, particularly when imposed by a third party.
- Alt: Other than talking?
- Alt: So the M stands for monologue?

Snarky: The PMO needs you to agree to the Memorandum of Understanding between development and testing. We've determined that it's the only way to align department expectations.
Title: Maybe we should call it a PMOU.
