Initiatives Portfolio Management (IPM) terms of referencePurpose Objectives

The IPM is a (cross) functional peer review team which objectively assesses current and candidate projects in the portfolio and approves any new initiatives and stage-gate reviews.

• Propose new initiatives for endorsement• Review and align on the key projects in the current project portfolio and their lifecycle stage• Ensure that all projects have consistent project charters and business cases, which aim to identify the contribution

to achieving strategic targets and identify the sponsor and project manager. (Please note, for in-flight projects, where there are no robust business cases then a rapid assessment of the projects will be undertaken to determine their key parameters, which are cost, resource requirements, and contribution to strategic objectives)

• Generate quick wins in identifying, reorienting or stopping initiatives that are not clearly contributing to strategic objectives, lack clear sponsorship or may overlap with other initiatives

• Build and enforce program and portfolio management best practice

Scorecard driving in-scope projects

and priorities

Scorecard delivers significant benefits

Ensure strategic fit Provide transparency Factor in risk and cost

The need to manage the portfolio to ensure it delivers the strategic aims and provides the greatest return on investment

The need to provide visibility of progress to ensure decisions are

based on reliable information

Credible change for success comes from structured

planning and taking smart risks

Scorecard creation process

Define strategic objectives and metrics for measuring success, risk and investment

Uncover hidden projects and apply metrics to determine optimal fit, risk and investment weighting

Assign resource and group projects to initiatives to develop roadmap for project management

Perform portfolio review with core team and coach project leaders to deliver on time and quality

Communicate and celebrate success with the organization quarterly
