The true definition of a project management office (PMO) is as described in some of these answers - a functional center of expertise for project managers within an organization.\n\nHowever, not all PMO's are created equal.  Some PMO's don't have all the project managers reporting into them, and perform more of a support role - providing project managers across the organization with help on such things as training, project management tool support, best practices etc.

Ok Management is stroger, but you have to think also about the development. Management can be a boss but you have to know how to development and know all about the resources for doing a successful plan to a project :-)

From your description, strictly speaking you're not after project management software, but rather production scheduling or manufacturing resource planning software.\n\nProject management software is intended to manage projects that have a beginning and an end, whereas I think you're after something to manage an ongoing farming operation.\n\nThere's certainly a variety of existing farm related s/w on the market, but I don't know if it would meet your needs.

RUP is a standardized software development process.  It had its origins in the unified modeling language.  Rational Corp. took the UML and developed a standardized process for implementing projects in a series of iterations based on its UML tools.  IBM bought Rational and continued RUP development.  IBM recently donated part of its RUP intellectual property to the open source community.  See link in sources for more info.\n\nThe second part of your question is a little harder.  How RUP relates to project managment is that RUP is a process.  It defines the steps to be taken to produce a product and it defines the deliverables to be produced at each phase.  So, the relationship between RUP and project management is RUP defines the artifacts to be produced and PM strives to manage the cost and schedule associated with producing those artifacts.

The link below describes the role of a project manager.  This is a generic description, but the role would be largely the same for a software implementation project.

As a previous answer suggested, an online PM course may not be the best way to go.  There are plenty of them - and of course if they are online then it doesn't normally matter where in the world they are coming from.\n\nThe issue is that project management is a very participatory discipline, and it's difficult to get a true sense of it sitting at a computer.  At least you'll want to get one with live sessions and interaction.

Learn about project managment. It helps with all of the other parts of IT i.e. Business analysis, process mapping etc. It will also help you move in to management if you so wish. Wish I had learned about it sooner. Good luck.
