We help our clients fund the right mix of innovation projects across all growth horizons.
This means making better decisions about where to invest limited resources through increased insight, analytics and visibility into the innovation portfolio and project pipeline.
Every innovation portfolio is constrained by either human or financial resources. Portfolio management is a fundamental, yet dynamic process used to plan, align and optimize innovation investments within those constraints. As the link between innovation strategy and project execution, product portfolio management not only steers overall investment in the right direction but determines whether there are enough growth-generating initiatives in the pipeline to deliver against expectations.
Product and portfolio management done well can:
- Ensure alignment between strategy and funded projects in the innovation pipeline
- Optimize resource loading for priority projects to maximum value creation
- Explore alternative scenarios to optimize investment within and across opportunity areas
- Establish clear project priorities for maximum development throughput
- Ensure appropriate balance of projects by innovation type, strategic bucket, geography and risk profile
