It's based on what actually works, giving you a clear road map and the tools needed to determine the optimal mix and sequencing of projects in order to meet your organization's goals.

  • Which projects should our organization invest in?

  • How can we optimize our organization's capacity?

  • How well are we executing the PPM process?

  • Can our organization absorb all the changes that our PPM plan requires?

  • Are we achieving all the expected benefits?
