Portfolio Management

Portfolio Management
Successfully direct and manage change with architecture-based Portfolio Management.

IT executives turn to Portfolio Management practices and tools to demand returns on IT investments in terms of income, savings, strategic value and customer satisfaction. Yet conventional portfolio management tools neglect architectural aspects of interdependent IT projects. Seemingly prudent short term decisions to approve IT projects can result in unforeseen, long term impacts on the enterprise architecture, and tremendous costs.

The planning challenge is to integrate technical know-how from the architecture management arena into portfolio management to reduce operating expenses and facilitate innovation. This can be achieved with an integrated planning process that delivers full visibility of the dependencies in skills, resources and the architecture. Organizations need architecture-based investment planning to truly achieve value-based portfolio management.
