Everything can’t be priority #1
When everything is priority #1, nothing is a priority. Most project managers are expected to do more with less. It is easy to take on everything and to treat all projects with equal importance. But without focusing on what is most important, deadlines are missed and team members work on the wrong things.
Manage all of your projects in a prioritized portfolio that builds your organization’s priorities into the schedule from the start. Eliminate confusion around what is priority and align your team to purpose.
Priority-based scheduling
In Portfolio Manager's structured prioritization system, projects and tasks are prioritized from top to bottom, making priorities clear to the entire team across the project portfolio. Portfolio Manager's engine calculates realistic schedules based on priorities. When priorities shift, schedule dates update automatically and show the impact of change.
Clear and visible priorities
When priorities are the foundation of your portfolio, what is most important is undebatable. Priority-based planning takes the guesswork and politics out of project planning. Stop haggling over budget and talent for your projects. Have smart conversations about when you can take on more work, and when adjustments need to be made. When something urgent comes up, create an ASAP priority override.
Align people, priorities and projects
Productivity is maximized when everyone is on the same page. When priorities are clear and connected to your projects plans, everyone can move in the same direction.Every project team member is aligned to purpose in Portfolio Manager. When people are focused on the right work, momentum for your business builds.
