Portfolio Management

Establish discipline and visibility around IT's investments and contribution to business goals

Immature or non-existent Portfolio Management causes:

  • Inadequate or conflicted staffing assignments
  • Underestimation of future project/resource requirements
  • Non-standardized expectations around IT resources
  • Improper allocation of IT funding in the annual cycle

A formalized IT Portfolio Management Process results in:

  • Standardized business cases that are aligned with corporate strategy
  • Streamlined process for requesting and allocating IT resources for project work
  • Accurate allocation of staff and resources across various programs
  • Transparent project approval and prioritization procedures
