4 Portfolio Management - Mission The mission of IT Portfolio Management is to align and optimize Technology investments with corporate and business objectives to successfully implement Technology strategies. IT Portfolio Management will provide foundational data which informs corporate decision-makers about how much technology investment to make, what initiatives to invest in, and includes project justification, prioritization, and approval techniques. Typical areas of evaluation include: Demand versus Forecast Portfolio Assessment and Management Project Execution Solution Resource Management 4

5 Demand Forecast versus Actual Without a destination in mind, how can you answer the question, Are we there yet? You need a better demand consolidation solution if You are using multiple systems to collect, track, and resolve IT service requests. You are only tracking strategic projects, not operational demand. Requests frequently come in through the back door and are not formally managed. There is no consistent prioritization: the squeaky wheel gets the oil. The service levels for responding to and completing requests are difficult to track and report. There is no audit trail for requests or actions taken. 5

6 Portfolio Assessment and Management Do the right thing at the right time. You need a better portfolio management solution if You have no aggregate-level visibility into time, cost, and resource information for project and non-project efforts. In-flight projects, strategic projects, and operational work are all managed and maintained in different systems of record. You are not able to get an objective analysis of the items in the portfolio; there is too much weight given to subjective criteria and political considerations. You cannot do apples-to-apples comparisons of the expected ROI or net present value (NPV) of requested projects in the portfolio. Processes are not automated and your staff is frustrated feeding data into the system. 6

7 Project Execution Solution If it s important, measure it. If it s measured, report it. If it s reported, act on it. You need a better project execution solution if Your company lacks a real-time status/health view into critical projects. IT projects are frequently late and over-budget, creating constant headaches and the perception that IT just doesn t get it. You are having difficulty keeping your current tools, such as spreadsheets, binders, and point tools, up-to-date and in sync. Inadequate visibility into resource availability is impacting your staff s ability to manage projects effectively. You are unable to offer management hard data to support your budgetary and resource needs. 7

8 Resource Management Poor quality results from systems put in place by management which prevent employees from achieving success. anonymous You need a better resource management solution if You are not sure your staff is always working on the right projects at the right time. You cannot pinpoint when a skill or resource can become available. You do not know how much of your capacity is consumed by strategic projects as opposed to operational activities. You are not tracking what tasks people worked on previously. It is difficult to determine what training is required for which employees. 8

9 Business Drivers for PMO Change Control Demand Budget Staff Approach Today - As Is Identify,prioritize and allocate based on business drivers, capacity and funding Managedand reported by each business unit Retained or staff augmentation Desired Outcomes - To Be Manage and report all projects Improve visibility to project demand Improve quality and delivery performance Total project cost budgeted and managed as a competency and resource center or managed service under one cost center, with chargeback (if desired) Gain early indication of budget variance (planned vs. actual) to manage potential financial risks Add leveraged cash flow analysis to increase the accuracy of IT investment decisions and subsequent reporting to the business Measurement andreporting on the Return on Investment to realize investment decision Combine retainedand staff augmentation, and/or outsourced services contract(s) 9

10 Business Drivers for PMO Change Control Approach Today - As Is Methodology Varied by business unit; PMOcan provide advisory services Tool Varied by business unit; Manual data compilation and analysis, as required Performance Inability to know performance results or issues precludes control or correction Desired Outcomes - To Be Single, standardized methodology Core competencies measured and reported PMO roles and responsibilities defined Staff trained and performance controlled Accountability for project delivery, cost and quality One tool supporting selected methodology Tool is repository for all project data, either client or service provider Project data viewable at portfolio program, business unit, or project level Standardize performance metrics and reports Performance measured and reported as defined by the tailored methodology Compare program/project performance across the enterprise Realize efficiencies, prescribe improvements 10

11 Business Drivers for PMO Change Control Sustainability Approach Today - As Is Process variation introduces added cost; Status reporting inconsistent / unreliable; Performance analysis is reactive and labor intensive Desired Outcomes - To Be Visibilityto full work stream (Demand to Delivery) for all project work Professional standard formethodology, including controls Comparative data compilation /analysis /reporting enabled through common tool Continuous staff development /mentoring /training Flexible staffing pools and/or leveraged resources 11
