Portfolio Management

Every organization faces critical enterprise investment decisions. Making these decisions is among your most pressing challenges. You must constantly choose from an array of potential investment choices and supporting projects. If the decision-making process is flawed, the result can severely affect profitability or, at the very least, derail your case for funding. Oracle’s Primavera Portfolio Management provides unmatched value for your enterprise decision-making processes. Its patented features, scalability, configurability, and flexible user interface have delivered measurable results for governmental agencies and some of the world’s largest and most innovative companies.

Rely on Primavera for High Stakes Decision-Making

Analysts estimate that each year some 30 percent of the US$1-to-US$2 trillion spent on IT deployments in North America is wasted. The primary reason for this is that most current decision-making processes do not effectively capture and analyze the data required to link strategic objectives to execution plans. That’s where Primavera solutions can help. By combining repeatable governance processes, and consistent evaluation metrics with the ability to capture and analyze all your relevant data, Primavera Portfolio Management helps you achieve your strategic goals and deliver value. From choosing investment proposals, funding strong business cases, performing “what if” scenarios, and analyzing performance progress, Primavera Portfolio Management guides you to strategically prioritize, plan, and execute your enterprise portfolios. Primavera Portfolio Management will ensure that you continue to increase productivity and on-time delivery—adding value, strengthening your performance track record, and ultimately improving your bottom line results.

A Proven Solution for Planning and Controlling Investments

Primavera Portfolio Management allows you to collaboratively propose, plan, and control your investment portfolios. The highly configurable solution can be adapted to meet the needs of your organization as your processes change. Primavera Portfolio Management is the hub of an effective six-step planning and control process that allows you to:

• Clarify key strategic objectives by presenting them in measurable ways
• Propose initiatives that align with the organization’s strategy and mission
