| A portfolio can be defined as broad as all pipeline projects or as narrow as one brand and all of its life cycle management projects. Portfolio management becomes critical when resources are constrained. Our process is not meant to replace management decision making with a computer model. Instead, it is designed to provide quality inputs for informed decisions and provide a methodology that logically integrates key attributes of individual projects.
Our process can help answer the following questions: 
- Will the current pipeline meet long term strategic goals?
- What is the optimal combination of projects to meet short and long term deliverables?
- What projects are responsible for most of the value in the pipeline?
- Where are the gaps in the pipeline?
- What type of projects should be licensed in?
- Are there sufficient Life Cycle Management projects to protect key brands?
- Is the pipeline’s risk being managed effectively?
In addition, we can work with clients to answer the following questions in order to assure efficient use of the company's resources:
- Are key projects being staffed for success?
- What are the organization’s capacity constraints?
- Will there be enough resources to reach growth aspirations?
- Will key functional expertise be available as projects progress?
- How should external spending be managed to meet portfolio goals?
We help companies perform:
· Portfolio preparation and data validation
· Portfolio analysis – prioritization, optimization, resource allocation
· Portfolio level recommendations
Our approach is backed by years of experience implementing portfolio management processes at Fortune 500 companies. |
