Geography

Divisions / LOBs
Propelics has identified three Mobile COE models. It is
imperative to clearly define and articulate the depth and breadth
of the COE.
The Repository Model
A repository of mobile best practices and information on
standards, tools, and templates
The Coach Model
A competency center to provide mobile expertise and some
oversight for the organization
The Manager Model
Concentrates on mobile governance responsibilities and may
provide the direct management of mobile projects

Repository Coach Manager Model
An internal consultancy to advise on and govern mobile
projects. Has authority to evaluate and monitor mobile
projects across
Combination of the attributes associated with the repository,
coach, and manager models
