This article is an overview and summary of relevant body of knowledge concerning risk management in project portfolios. Project portfolio management (PPM) is the set of managerial activities that are required to manage a collection of projects and programs needed to achieve stratetic business objectives.[1] It has been widely accepted that Risk Management is an important part of Project Management. Project risk management enables an organisation to limit the negative impact of uncertain events and/or to reduce the probability of these negative events materialising, while simultaneously aiming to capture opportunities [2]. However, project risk management is only effective to a limited extent because it lacks a portfolio wide view. [3] The information available regarding risk management at portfolio level is fairly scarce. Methods like Monte Carlo Simulations can be used to create efficient frontier charts in order to best as possible choose risk/return balance within the portfolio. Numerical methods are however often associated only with risks (known unkowns) and not uncertanties (unknown unknowns).
Project Portfolio Succes
Project portfolio succes is defined on 6 parameters: Average project succes, average product succes, strategic fit, portfolio balancing, preparing for the future and economic succes. Combined these parameters give portfolio managers a way to assess the succes of a specific project portfolio.
- Average project succes
- Forklaring1
- Average product succes
- Forklaring2
- Strategic fit
- Foklaring3
- Portfolio balancing
- Forklaring4
- Preparing for the future
- Forklaring5
- Economic succes
- Forklaring6
