Portfolio Management & Optimisation

"Optimise and manage Strategic Portfolio decisions by continually balancing risks, finances and skills to deliver the best value in line with Strategic goals and ambitions"

Balancing resources effectively

Only by optimising and managing the finite capacities of skills, finances and other resources can you achieve your Strategic and profit objectives. Accolade allows you to easily create scenarios showing the effect of changing programme or project priorities, moving start and end dates or allocating more staff. You can even let Accolade suggest scenarios based on constraints that you set. All of this without changing any base data until you decide which scenario to adopt

Creating Value

Portfolios of Innovative Ideas, Research programmes and New Product/Service Developments need to be continually re-assessed and aligned to your strategy and prioritised to create the greatest value for your Enterprise.

Reacting to change

With rapid changes in market demands, technology and organisational structures, Senior Managers need Data driven information presented in an intuitive and visual format to make the right decisions to stay ahead of the competition.

Accolade Portfolio Management provides the ability to optimise Innovation Portfolios to focus on the projects and products which create the greatest value in line with strategic goals. Portfolio managers can easily adjust to changing circumstances to effectively ensure that the most profitable throughput can be achieved within the constraints of finance and resources.
