RPM Dashboard STR103 - Strategic Planning & Analysis Detail

WRK15.png 

Overview

The Strategic Planning and Analysis dashboard empowers strategic and program managers to quickly assess their strategic plans against targets and across key factors.

Managers can immediately visualize whether the latest plans meet revenue, cost and margin targets. They can analyze cost and revenue breakdowns by missions and objectives, geographic regions, and markets. Evaluating performance against targets, incoming pipeline by region, and return by market, managers adjust their plans to deliver a balanced portfolio across their strategies.

This dashboard can be used on either a strategy or planning portfolio ribbon.
When used on the planning portfolio, the planning portfolio definition MUST be based on strategy

Business Rules

When run against a strategy portfolio, data will be classified as "Approved" if it is "Accepted" or "Conditional" - everything else will appear as "Unapproved"

When run against a planning portfolio, only data that is above the line will be included. So that data will be classified as "Accepted" or "Conditional" (replacing, respectively, "Approved" and "Unapproved").

The "Revenue by Status" widget will now reflect these new classifications in the planning portfolio.  It will be based on the the customer selection for the Investment Approval (OpCapAppr) SequenceID values of WBS27$ACTP and WBS27$COND (in the case these values are renamed).
