Foundations For Governance
One of the most common PPM management challenges is ensuring consistent project planning from inception to delivery, alignment with the rest of the business, and visibility for good governance throughout.
Foundations for business integrated governance have to be laid before projects are even conceptualised. Organisations need a clear vision for how their products, services and processes will become more innovative and competitive.
Where will the ideas come from, how can they be encouraged across the organisation, how will the business cases for each idea be assessed for return on investment and for priority before projects are approved for development?
Business Alignment
Early ideas and embryonic projects also have to be constantly scrutinised for alignment with projects already in flight.
They need to be integrated with wider business strategies – marketing and sales, for example – to ensure they are consistent with effective deployment of resources, brand image, and excellent customer experience.
Ultimately Projects are just one stream of work within the business. Projects often share resources with support, change and other operational needs.
Governance frameworks need to understand how prioritisation operates across all streams and how they work together to deliver a coherent service to the customer.

Visibility Of PPM
Visibility is the watchword for good PPM management.
Transparency of every process and decision enables financial and resourcing judgements to be accurately evaluated and risks properly assessed.
It also ensures a clear line of sight to each project’s impact on the business and notably on the customer.
Above all, transparent PPM processes are crucial for good governance, demonstrating to Boards and regulatory bodies the organisation’s operational and process effectiveness and efficiency and a prudent approach to financial and risk management.
