- Project management
View a list of projects with brief descriptions and links to details. Behind each project is a set of project management tools targeted at managing everyday IT projects, including project financial management, resource estimation, scheduling, and expected value calculation. - Program management
Create and manage programs, which are typically larger, more complex projects consisting of several smaller individual projects. - Portfolio management
Create and manage portfolios, which are groups of projects that you can define for a particular purpose, such as budgeting, planning, and comparing scenarios. - Analysis
Conduct a value analysis on a portfolio of projects. The Project Portfolio Value Analysis Chart presents a visual comparison of project values and success probability, with the same data also presented in tabular form. - Investment planning scenario analysis
Evaluate projects and refine your organization's decision-making process by creating planning scenarios. Use the Scenario functionality to specify target values for overall labor, start and end dates, total capital, and expense for a selected set of projects. You can then move projects into investment categories to see the total labor and costs of projects within each category.
