I note today’s article at www.cio.com that outlines some issues in applying portfolio management to IT projects: Making IT Portfolio Management a Reality. Brings to mind the discussion I had today with a client applying this type of approach to an information management strategy.
Essentially:
An Information Management Portfolio
supported by
Identified Programs of Work
(that address Key Organisational Challenges)
supported by
Activities
supported by
Project Initiatives
This approach allows a very sensible strategy and program of work to be built up that can then provide future direction to the client.
