In this presentation Kik Piney (LinkedIn profile) structures this session in two main parts.

The first part provides a description of current practice and tools as applied in the program and portfolio domains.

The case study is introduced and analyzed using currently available tools. These tools allow us to evaluate some of the costs and to forecast benefits. The inadequacies and limitations of this type of analysis are presented.

The second part is devoted to describing an original and powerful set of additional techniques for addressing these inadequacies and for extending understanding and control across the entire lifetime of a program or portfolio.

These tools provide business management with a complete view of how the components interact across the program or portfolio, and to forecast how the corresponding costs and benefits develop across each phase of the work.

This leads to the definition of a consistent set of reliable indicators for end-to-end benefits performance management. At each stage, the logical basis for the corresponding algorithms is explained and the techniques are applied to the case study.
