Portfolio Server

Microsoft Office Project Portfolio Server 2007 helps your organization realize its potential by identifying, selecting, managing, and delivering portfolios that align with your strategic priorities. Office Project Portfolio Server 2007 is a key component of the Microsoft Office Enterprise Project Management (EPM) Solution and helps ensure that you gain visibility, insight, and control across your project, program, and application portfolios. An intuitive workflow designer helps you quickly define and automate your project portfolio management (PPM) governance processes. Portfolio Server can help you optimize and select portfolios that best align with your organization’s strategic priorities. The interface is easy to use, and embedded best practice methods and analytical techniques help ensure you select the right investments for your business.

• Objectively define and prioritize your organization’s business strategy.
• Automatically derive prioritization scores such as strategic value, financial value, risk, architectural fit, and operational performance to objectively assess projects, programs, and applications.
• Employ sophisticated optimization algorithms to select the optimal portfolio under varying budget constraints, such as costs and full-time equivalents (FTE).
• Identify and break the constraints prohibiting the portfolio from reaching the Efficient Frontier.
• Enforce a rational rather than emotional approach to selecting portfolios.
