Portfolio Management
for All
efforts, not just projects
Affordable and Comprehensive Functionality
Based on our average of 30
years in the project management industry, the EPK Group founders recognize that real portfolio
management must consider more than just major projects. The resources in today's
organizations are involved in support, operations, sustaining engineering in
addition to their major project assignments. For many organizations, the
majority of the total effort is the "non project" work. This means the real
problem is "resource management", continually adjusting resource staffing to
meet the ever changing priorities. To meet this Capacity vs. Demand problem:
EPK-Suite
helps by:
-
Providing a
complete inventory of all efforts in the organization
-
Including functions to prioritize your corporate
portfolio of project and operational initiatives
-
Analyzing multiple scenarios
for delaying projects and other work, cancelling efforts that no longer meet
business goal, changing spend rates, etc.
-
Providing "stage-gate"
process control of the complete life cycle of all work
-
Enabling comprehensive
budgeting and cost management
-
Giving managers tools to
analyze resource "capacity vs. demand" and assure that resources are working
on the efforts that align with corporate goals
-
Tracking how staff time is
being expended to enable better estimating in the future and compare budget
vs. actual manpower and cost comparisons

Does the chart to the left
reflect your firm's situation?
Most organizations have more work
than can be handled effectively by the resources they have. The most pressing
problems facing the organization are prioritizing the various efforts,
controlling how new initiatives are evaluated against current efforts, assigning
resources efficiently, and accurately tracking progress and
performance.
Many systems just help you
develop your strategy, or help you with "project management", or "resource
management", or provide a timesheet. We at EPK Group believe that without an
integrated approach to planning, tracking and managing ALL effort, including
support, projects, new initiatives, etc., the best
strategy won't produce results. Nor will just good project management when
resources are involved in day to day operational and support efforts.
