PROJECT PORTFOLIO DASHBOARD

TrueViewPM is a project portfolio dashboard designed to increase visibility and communications for IT projects. TrueViewPM helps deliver projects reliably and predictably, by focusing on execution, oversight, and transparency.

THE BUSINESS PROBLEM

Many organizations lack visibility to the information needed to to effectively manage their projects’ successes, risks and agency resources. Even when projects are going well, many IT leaders struggle to get deserved recognition for the value that their department delivers. On the surface, visibility is thwarted due to communication barriers and a lack of reporting consistency. Deep down, however, the issue is often due to inconsistent project management discipline.

Organizations with more than a handful of projects struggle to get their arms around all of the activities going on. From holding teams accountable to communicating successes, from keeping stakeholders engaged in current projects to prioritizing new projects, the complexity can be overwhelming. Organizations have spent millions of dollars and dozens of man-years implementing complex tools to increase visibility and improve project success rates. These tools have not delivered the expected results because they are so difficult to implement. Computech has a different approach; one that can quickly be successful, due to its efficiency and simplicity.

THE COMPUTECH SOLUTION TrueViewPM

Computech has developed TrueViewPM — a project portfolio dashboard, complemented with a set of services — to facilitate the adoption of project management best practices, and provide the visibility and accountability needed to effectively manage an organization’s portfolio of projects. TrueViewPM has been successfully employed to help organizations achieve consistency, predictability and visibility into their projects. TrueViewPM is lightweight and non-disruptive, which allows the solution to show results in less than three months.

TrueViewPM delivers consistent project reporting, which drives visibility and leads to accountability. Computech’s solution also focuses management’s attention on variance, which leads to the corrective actions needed to increase predictability.

True ViewPM: How it Works

  • Key content from project artifacts, including project charter, schedule, budget, staffing plan and risks are extracted into a data repository.
  • PMs provide weekly status reports and track variance from plan.
  • TrueViewPM then presents stakeholders with project summary data and KPIs for all projects.
  • Stakeholders can drill down to obtain detailed project information, including milestones, risks and financials.
