Before OpenText Project and Portfolio Management:
Meet Jordan, a portfolio manager at a global enterprise. Jordan spends most mornings piecing together spreadsheets, chasing down project updates, and trying to explain to leadership why deadlines keep slipping. Teams are overbooked one week and underutilized the next. Strategic initiatives get buried under urgent “fire drills.” By the time risks surface, it’s already too late to course-correct. The result: Stress, reactive decision-making, and constant uncertainty about whether the portfolio is delivering real business value. Jordan needs project and portfolio management software.
After OpenText Project and Portfolio Management:
Now picture Jordan’s world when he uses project and portfolio management software from OpenText™:
- Strategy and execution finally align. Every project is clearly tied to business outcomes, so Jordan can prioritize with confidence and demonstrate value to leadership.
- Resources are optimized. The right people are on the right projects at the right time—no more burnout or idle talent.
- Real-time visibility replaces guesswork. Dashboards highlight risks, dependencies, and progress across the portfolio, so Jordan spots issues early and takes action before they escalate.
- Decisions are smarter and faster. With trustworthy data at hand, Jordan can respond to change with agility instead of scrambling.
- Faster time-to-market. By aligning strategy and execution, Jordan’s organization cuts wasted effort and delivers high-priority initiatives faster.
- Reduced risk exposure. Real-time dashboards surface potential delays or budget overruns early, helping the organization avoid costly surprises.
- Greater portfolio value. With visibility across projects, leadership can redirect investment to initiatives with the highest returns—maximizing impact without increasing spend.
The difference is night and day. Instead of firefighting and herding cats, Jordan’s team focuses on delivering outcomes that matter. Leadership gets clarity and confidence. And Jordan? He finally has time to lead strategically rather than drown in spreadsheets.
