No company has the
resources to meet all of its business needs. A portfolio management
process provides a way to select, prioritize, authorize and manage the
totality of work in the organization. This includes work that has been
completed, work in-progress and work that has been approved for the
future.
Managers that do not
understand how their budgets are spent, and who cannot validate that
scarce resources are assigned to work that is of the most value, will
find themselves under greater scrutiny and second-guessing in the
future. Portfolio management can help your organization answer some of
the most basic, yet difficult, questions regarding work performed and
value provided.
TenStep has
a predefined model for implementing portfolio management in your
organization using our ten step model:
When you manage your
work as a portfolio, you change the emphasis from the costs of each
initiative to the value provided. If the value (and alignment) is right,
the work will get authorized. If the value is not there, the work should
be eliminated, cut or backlogged. This focus on value is especially
appealing to the IT organization, which has traditionally been seen as a
cost to the business rather than an enabler for providing business
value.
