Why Project Portfolio Management?
 
 
- Corporate management needs to know 
- 
- Where corporate resources are being consumed
- Whether project objectives are still in alignment
- Or have the corporate goals, objectives changed?
- Or the corporate vision and priorities changed?
 
- What product performance benefits are resulting
 
- To answer these questions
- 
- Tracking must continue through the product life cycle
- Not just through the project life span
 
- There must be feedback to the planning process
