"rightsizing our methodology"

PMO Speak.....

Apparently it means;

We've spent the last few years so hugely over bureacrifiying our project methodology it's now a complete shamples and nobody understands the process anymore. So we've now added a new folder for each stage to the project repositories for approvals cos no-one could find anything. Also, please name them so we don't have to look at the docs but can tick our boxes based on their title. Thanks.
