Implement Project Portfolio Management solution Print All

Initiative Title	Implement Project Portfolio Management solution
Submitted in Previous Year(s)	No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale	Recently, the IS Group of the IT department has begun standardizing the procedure of planning and executing IT projects. We would like to further develop the project management services offered by the IT to the rest of the college. In order to do this, we need a means to coherently manage multiple projects simultaneously while tracking resources, time, and providing a visibility into the status to the upper management at any given moment without having to request and wait for a status report. A comprehensive Project Portfolio Management solution would allow us to start taking steps towards managing the projects consistently and increasing the communication with the stakeholders.
Consequences of this initiative not being funded	The IT department will not be able to deliver projects in a consistent manner. As a result, it will be difficult to set expectations for the users and administration.
Department Goals	Become a collaborative and supportive organizational asset.

Institutional Goals

Goal	How will the initiative support this institutional goal?
STUDENT SERVICES MASTER PLAN 2013 Technology Explore, introduce and utilize technology designed to improve operations, enhance communication, streamline service, and increase productivity and efficiency.	Implementing any technological solution constitutes a project. As a rule, the IT has to manage multiple projects at the same time. the PPM tool would allow us to do this more efficiently while increasing the communication and streamlining the service
STUDENT SERVICES MASTER PLAN 2013 Technology Expand document imaging throughout Student Services; explore and implement utilization college-wide as appropriate	Expanding the document imaging is a sizable project. A PPM tool would allow us to manage and track in an organized fashion.
STRATEGIC PLAN 2015-2020 PRIORITY III: Collaboration and Communication: We will develop connections between internal and external constituents and advance mutually beneficial partnerships. We will promote a culture of trust, respect, and collective responsibility. c: Improve management of information to increase transparency and centralize communication practices.	The PPM tool would allow for the transparency in communication of the projects with the college constituents.
STRATEGIC PLAN 2015-2020 PRIORITY IV: Efficient and Effective Operations: We will anticipate and adapt to changing economic realities while maintaining the infrastructure and resources necessary to foster innovation and develop & deliver high quality programs and services. b: Develop, cultivate, and support innovation throughout the organization for continuous improvement.	Project Management services offer an innovation in how the projects are being delivered, as well as an opportunity for continuous improvement of how the projects are delivered. Having a tool that centralizes the PM activities will serve as the next level of innovation.
STRATEGIC PLAN 2015-2020 PRIORITY IV: Efficient and Effective Operations: We will anticipate and adapt to changing economic realities while maintaining the infrastructure and resources necessary to foster innovation and develop & deliver high quality programs and services. d: Foster a collective commitment to comprehensive planning, assessment, and prioritization to ensure institutional effectiveness.	In participating in project planning, the constituents will further understand the value of comprehensive planning and institutional effectiveness as opposed to simply implementing a system for the sake of having something new.
