Even when an organisation has clear, strategic direction and financial controls, there are always more investment opportunities than there are money and people to get them done. Determining how and when to allocate resources to maximise returns on investments is a challenge for all areas of business.
The challenge can be particularly difficult to balance for IT.
This webinar focuses on the use of strategic and capacity portfolios to structure investment decisions, and the use of an optimisation engine to assist in and speed the analysis. You will learn how an optimisation engine, when employed with solid portfolio management, can improve efficiency, accuracy and speed of decision-making by:
- Defining the best possible investments to benefit the entire enterprise.
- Examining all elements that impact achieving strategic goals
- Optimising portfolios based on real world constraints.
- Automating investment decisions to ensure efficient use of people/money.
The webinar will feature Gunes Sahillioglu, a technology consultant whose firm, Excellix, advises large companies on managing their IT portfolios. He will discuss the role of portfolios in investment decisions and introduce the concept of the Efficient Frontier in investment optimisation. Prior to Excellix, Mr. Sahillioglu was global head of Reuter’s PMO.
Marcus Klein, of Planview , will show the tools available in Planview Enterprise for investment analysis and optimisation.
