Analytics packages are becoming more and more popular as a way of manipulating, interpreting and presenting portfolio information.
These can be applied over any Portfolio Project Management (PPM) system and are designed to be easily configurable by upskilling existing internal resources.
The tricky part, as with most projects, is often ensuring you have defined clear outcomes and follow a structured approach to implement change and realise the benefits.
