Portfolio Management
Portfolio Management is
being used to save money by allowing companies to balance
project costs against potential value and risk.
Scorecarding
Companies more and more are relying on
the concept of a balanced scorecard to help
gauge the success of business objectives, with enterprises
using technology and data to determine whether goals are being
met.
Mastering
the Project Office
Simplicity, standardization, and consistency
are key to Project Office success. Long-term
goals must be established and seven prescriptive measures
set in place to get results.
Project
Management
Enterprise Project Management (EPM)
may be the perfect solution for companies struggling to adapt
to Information Age business realities.
Value Management
Value Management is a
style of management particularly dedicated to motivating people,
developing skills and promoting synergies and innovation,
with the aim of maximizing the overall performance of an organization.
Financial
Management
Improving the return on your IT
investment should be a piece of cake, says Dr. Howard
Rubin of the META Group. That's because most IT departments
are in sorry shape when it comes to using business metrics.
Risk
Management
Risks are everywhere in
business but you won't find them in most spreadsheets, partly
because risks don't lend themselves to precise quantification.
Asset
Management
Because most asset management
programs are focused on saving money related to lease overruns
or invoice discrepancies, or via improved licensing, many
IT organizations (ITOs) have failed to fully appreciate the
considerable benefits of an asset management program.
Vendor
Management
To get the most out of a single-vendor
relationship you need to go beyond clarifying how service
and support are packaged; you need to develop a closer rapport
with your vendor.
Product
Lifecycle Management
Staying competitive is an ever-challenging
task. Companies need to focus on their core competencies,
improve their relationships to customers, streamline their
supply chains, and collaborate with partners to create "buyer
- vendor - supplier" value networks.
New
Product Development
Successful product development requires
fundamentally improved approaches to organizing the development
process, reducing waste, and providing products to meet customer
needs in order to respond to global competition in our own
markets as well as compete effectively on a global basis.
Service
Automation
Professional Services Automation is focused
on optimizing resource usage, managing mission-critical processes
and capturing and leveraging corporate intellect allowing
for more centralized planning.
