Our Professional Services Capability Adoption Package for Investment Planning is designed specifically to get you to value quickly and effectively. 

Investment and capacity planning

Planning is the key to focusing on what matters. Planview Portfolios Investment and Capacity Planning capabilities enable organizations to balance demand (potential and in-flight investments) against capacity constraints (people, money, time, effort) to create an investment plan that maximizes value. It  helps our customers to answer these questions and drive business agility in planning:  

  • What is the best mix of investments to meet our portfolio targets and goals? 

  • Do we have the resources to meet this demand in the requested timeframe? 

  • What is the impact or tradeoff of making certain decisions? 

Watch these videos to learn more about Investment and Capacity Planning and how it supports Strategic Portfolio Management.
