Strategic Portfolio alignment

Portfolio management enables organisations to; align their investments with their corporate strategy, eliminate overlapping and duplicative projects, make the best use of scarce resources and highlight opportunities. These might include; rationalising the projects to deliver more value, faster and with better focus on strategic objectives. As a general rule, running fewer projects will reduce overheads and increase returns on investement.

Portfolio management may make it possible to bring forward delivery timescales and reduce expenditure on contract staff, by using resources more effeciently and stopping projects in which their is a low probability of delivering value or where the original business case no longer applies.

Cogenic uses an approach which combines people, information technology and business process design to provide a comprehensive solution to portfolio management. This can be achieved through either developing an existing Programme Management Office to increase its value or by creating a Portfolio Management Office, which recent research shows can provide a payback of less than 1 year on a portfolio of 20 or more projects.
