These monthly reports help extend the PMO’s project visibility beyond Jira.

[#1]

Reporting it's usually the channel for this, and it usually becomes a burden for those teams that have siloed and scattered data across different systems and disconnected workflows, eating up hours at the end of every month.

The funny part of this lack of visibility is that all this effort goes around unused data and metadata that already exist in Jira. Where projects are currently handled. 

So... how to automate this PMO monthly reporting?

After establishing that a monthly report is a structured summary that captures key project activities, relevant dates, SLAs (depending on what’s important), and outcomes over a specific month.

By putting in place a way that gathers and administers this data to the right stakeholders, it will allow teams to audit what was achieved, what went off track, and where efforts should focus next. This will allow you to:

1. Ensure transparency and accountability
2. Improve the decision-making process
3. Drive continuous improvement
4. Support project strategies
5.  Connect business & technical perspectives

By default, this is possible in Jira by building them within Jira Dashboards or by saving filters, subscribing to them, and setting up email notifications of filter results.

Not natively, there's also one recent update for Exporter for Jira, which allows scheduling monthly reports based on predefined templates tailored for this precise data.

So, basically. You can get this information with just a few clicks to set it up and extract it from Jira every month.

With you can get three main reports: (1)The PMO Project Status Overview, (2)The PMO Last Month’s Activity, and (3)The PMO Last Month’s Closures.

Start saving time (and money!) now

Currently, teams spend hours gathering data, cleaning it, and formatting updates instead of analyzing it or even getting it with minimal effort and working with it further in BI tools...

You should start automating it asap.
