Calculating the Return on your Project

Portfolio Management Investment

Question:

How long does it take

for a company to see

a return on

investment from

Project Portfolio

Management

Software?

The truth is, with a

SaaS solution, the

benefits and

payback happen

fast. Real Fast.

Let’s take a look at the two key areas of return:

Return on

Investment

(ROI)

Return on

Opportunity

(ROO)

ROI is the tangible cost savings or increase in

revenue/profitability directly attributed to the

deployment of new software.

These savings are seen in common

project and program management

activities such as:

• Reduced project status reporting times

• Maintaining timelines for task based

planning, staffing & control

• Limited manually searching

• Easy change management

• Efficient expense and time

management

If the initial benefit of this doesn’t stand

out, consider how our unique approach

provides 100% Transparency throughout

the entire product selection process:

ROI can also be achieved by increasing the

productivity of delivery staff by streamlining

administrative tasks.

Delivery staff savings can be

achieved in the following areas:

• Automating weekly progress

and assignment meetings

• Accurate time recording

• Real-time milestone achievement

reporting

• Easy prioritization/reprioritization

of work schedules

ROO is the time saved through streamlining

processes that can be refocused to achieve

additional benefits.

ROO can be achieved in the following areas:

• Productivity

• Profitability

• Information

• Satisfaction

• Performance

ROO can be achieved in the following areas:
