Portfolio Management

Are you getting the quality of information needed to make decisions to start, stop and prioritise projects?

As project centric businesses mature and gain visibility of their total project portfolios they reach the stage where they have to come to terms with Programme and/or Portfolio Management.

Many businesses have or are in the process of implementing EPM solutions, an investment with both long and short term benefits.

The major challenge facing these businesses is that they have the tools to manage the project information but need to establish the required portfolio and programme management processes to manage and prioritise the projects.

Both the OGC and PMI have recognised this and have started to address the need for clarity and establish processes and procedures for Programme and Portfolio management.

A businesses PMO has a large role to play in providing clarity and leadership in the business with regard to standards etc. But unlike project management, portfolio management requires greater involvement and direction from senior management. Some larger companies address this need by establishing an Enterprise PMO.

We can either help you directly by quickly establishing ongoing control of your project Investments with the managed service Metrisis, or by working with your business to establish or improve a PMO or EPMO function.
