Project portfolio management can provide quite concrete opportunities for companies. And not just in terms of strategy. Project portfolio management impacts the entire organisation and its ability to top quality service to its clients. This involves particularly the development of the organisational architecture from a business standpoint.
You must develop services that save the client’s time. You must provide services that are easy to utilise and beneficial to the client. Achieving this status requires significant changes that begin with the current status and determining the ideal status. Operating plans must be aligned with the overall architecture of the organisation, and each project in the portfolio must have a concrete connection to a strategic outline or solution.
