Reader Reviews
The fundamental shift in thinking about IT PPM is the concept that software projects represent an investment portfolio no less than the stocks and bonds of a conventional investment portfolio. But if you look at a software project in the right way, it certainly has a cost, it should have some expected return, and it probably entails risk. These are exactly the characteristics of any investment. Once you have made the jump to realize that the bundle of software projects being undertaken by your company are an investment portfolio, then all kinds of portfolio management software can come into play. The financial industry has spent a fortune and many years developing these analysis tools. This book talks about using some of them for software management. The CD included with the book includes supplementary materials for IT project management professionals such as marketing presentations, ROI and portfolio management tools, direct links to regulatory acts, and more.
