1) The document discusses planning, executing, and measuring successful business transformations. It provides best practices from various companies that have successfully transformed their businesses.
2) Common challenges to successful transformation include failure to anticipate changes, misjudging risks, and lack of change management skills. Successful transformations had support from leadership, strong execution, and clear metrics to measure progress.
3) Implementing enterprise project portfolio management (EPPM) solutions can help companies overcome challenges and drive transformation by providing visibility, standardized processes, and metrics to track progress and costs. EPPM supports the innovation, efficiencies, and risk management that companies need to transform.
The key to successful Digital TransformationMegan Hunter
The document discusses key factors for successful business transformation:
1. Having the right team, including roles like a Business Project Manager, Transformation Lead, Lead Business Analyst, and Lead Solutions Architect.
2. Securing talent either internally or through partnerships if needed skills are not available internally.
3. Adopting solutions with minimal customization ("adopt, don't adapt") and having strong governance through a steering board to challenge customization requests.
This document discusses global trends in open innovation. It defines open innovation as using external ideas as well as internal ideas, and internal and external paths to market, to advance internal innovation and expand markets. The document outlines best practices companies use in open innovation, including Philips' high tech campus partnership network. It also discusses how companies are using web 2.0 tools like IdeaStorm, Innocentive, and Threadless to engage customers in innovation.

IBM Rational Software Conference 2009: Process, Project and Portfolio Managem...Kathy (Kat) Mandelstein
Track Keynote for the Process, Project and Portfolio Management Track at the IBM Rational Software Conference 2009
Software and systems delivery has become a fundamental business process in the global economy, and the ability to adapt to changing market conditions requires that information technology is fully integrated into the business strategy and operations to ensure consistent alignment with business priorities, and better execution.
Executives require visibility and real-time decision support to keep the enterprise focused on solutions to high-priority problems, supported by the ability to measure the performance of current and future IT activities and assets. IT leaders must deliver significant business value and ensure constant alignment of project investments with evolving business objectives. Project leaders must be able to identify, implement and drive adoption of repeatable best-practice approaches for successful execution, and be able to more proactively identify and resolve issues, to reduce risks associated with project failure. All stakeholders must be involved and informed in addressing the changing business needs, especially when variations in project health threaten outcomes.
This track explores topics across several domains that support organizational change and iterative software and systems delivery. Hear and learn from actual experiences across the spectrum of process adoption, portfolio planning and oversight, and execution of major initiatives, programs, and projects. This track is for executives, IT leaders, program managers, project managers, portfolio managers, process engineers, business analysts, and other stakeholders concerned with optimizing IT investments with industry best practices and team unifying tools for more predictability, adaptability, and visibility.

The Development Battle Nobody Talks About (Achieving DevOps at Enterprise Scale)Plutora
This document discusses the challenges of aligning business and technology goals through DevOps. It argues that while DevOps improves efficiency within technology teams, it does not directly address business-technology alignment. Value stream management is presented as a model that can provide the missing link by focusing on delivering value to customers through the entire process from idea to production. Key points covered include the historical conflicts between development and operations, how DevOps addressed these but did not solve all issues, and how value stream management takes a system-wide approach centered around customer value.

If you dont know where you are going any road will do visioning for implement...p6academy
This document outlines a methodology for defining requirements for an EPPM software implementation project in order to increase the likelihood of success. The methodology involves developing a vision statement, strategic objectives and goals through an executive visioning process. It then defines critical success factors, key performance indicators, and performance measures to align functional needs with strategic goals. Adopting a phased approach by prioritizing and rolling out limited functionality first is also recommended to introduce changes incrementally and reduce risk. The end result is a requirements document to guide the implementation project.

M&A success: Using an integration playbook to make your deal workGrant Thornton LLP
The document discusses how using an integration playbook can help mergers and acquisitions succeed where often they fail. It notes that only about 50% of M&A deals achieve their financial goals. An integration playbook establishes a repeatable process for integrating acquisitions based on past lessons learned. It identifies key risks to address such as retaining employees, aligning cultures, and realizing synergies. Having an experienced leader execute the playbook with input from past deals can help mergers integrate functions smoothly and achieve their strategic objectives.

7 Must-Have Value Stream Management Capabilities to Maximize ROITasktop
The transition from project to product in Enterprise IT has the potential to drastically improve market response. Product line leaders can shift resources and funds up to 90% faster than in a project model.1 But that agility and authority is wasted if inadequate data and analytics on end-to-end flow are impeding IT from accelerating business growth.
Join Tasktop Sr. Director of Product, Naomi Lurie, and Principal Value Stream Architect, Mara Puisite for a webinar demonstrating how your organization can maximize business ROI with Value Stream Management and Flow Metrics by:
Measuring the rate of value delivery across software products and services
Capturing actionable insights into the bottlenecks impeding business value delivery
Providing a unified executive view of software delivery productivity and its correlation to business results like growth
Making informed data-driven decisions about future investments in a product line

Agile software development is a group of software development methods in which requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between self-organizing, cross-functional teams. It promotes adaptive planning, evolutionary development, early delivery, continuous improvement, and encourages rapid and flexible response to change.
The Agile development model is also a type of Incremental model. Software is developed in incremental, rapid cycles. This results in small incremental releases with each release building on previous functionality. Each release is thoroughly tested to ensure software quality is maintained. It is used for time critical applications.
Continuous improvement is everybody’s job!

Intense competition and slow growth in mature markets have magnified uncertainty and put pressure on costs, just as regulators are escalating their demands. Research shows that CFOs and other senior finance executives believe that their function can play a key role but the ability to impact these challenges depends on levels of maturity and preparedness, which vary widely across companies and industries, as well by sub-functions. Here are the key findings from our research on how enterprises are driving transformation to achieve business impact.
Post-merger integration requires leadership from the top to define the new company's culture and roles. An integration manager can help coordinate integration efforts and ensure synergies are captured. When integrating IT systems, companies must find a balance between rapid and slow integration to minimize customer and employee disruption while realizing cost savings.

1) Lean methodology focuses on systematically eliminating waste from organizations. It is being adopted by more industries beyond manufacturing as a way to reduce costs while maintaining quality and customer loyalty.
2) When starting a lean transformation, it is best to first conduct a proof-of-concept by applying lean principles to critical processes over 4-5 months. This allows organizations to see results and gain leadership buy-in before a larger rollout.
3) Common mistakes include focusing too much on training without practical expertise, or applying lean too broadly without clear targets, instead of targeting critical processes that impact key financial and customer metrics.

Eoin Woods, CTO at Endava, provides insights into what we mean by agility and explores why successful Agile Transformation initiatives go beyond the development teams, in a whitepaper that discusses the six aspects of an organisation that need to evolve to achieve true agility.
The document discusses a new Lean methodology called "LACost" developed by LVSI to help organizations accelerate their continuous improvement initiatives. LACost uses operational data to provide real-time insights into costs, profitability, analytics and key performance indicators. It is designed to break down silos within organizations and provide a single source of truth for improvement efforts. The goal is to help organizations more quickly focus on the highest impact areas to improve profitability, growth, customer retention and morale.
Original article from the Flevy business blog can be found here:
http://flevy.com/blog/sap-and-change-management/
As a “seasoned” Change Manager, I have been involved in many diverse projects focusing on managing the business aspect of technology implementations; e.g. ERP (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics), Core Banking Systems, Business Intelligence, Case Working and Knowledge Management solutions, and the like.
To this day, I continue to be asked why is there a need to have involvement from a Change Manager, because a technology implementation “is what it is” and once implemented, the business should just be able to “get on and work with it.” But, it’s not quite as simple as that, because if you break down the impact of a technology implementation on a business, it would go something like this:
• It will change the way a business operates.
• Key stakeholders will want and need to be involved and communicated with.
• Processes will change.
• Organisation structures will change.
• The readiness of the business will need to be measured to ensure a smooth go-live.
• There will be a need to train and educate people in new ways of working.
• Business benefits as set out in the business case will need to be tracked.
• Once people gain competence with the new technology they should be encouraged to continuously improve ways of working into the future.
That sounds very simple, but actually it’s not, because all of these things involve people and they will need to have their expectations and perceptions managed.
Technology implementations aimed at making an organisation more efficient have become larger and more critical in recent years and now represent a major challenge for organisations. Despite improved technical functionality and reliability there are still project overruns, delays and sometimes downright failure. Research continues to show that between 30% and 70% of technology implementations either fail to meet their targeted benefits or stall and/or overrun. Problems are typically not related to the system or to technical issues surrounding the software but instead are often due to business related issues. One of the main reasons cited for this failure rate is that projects are usually managed from a technical perspective by Project Managers who are driven by milestones and deliverables but lack the necessary “soft skills” to deal effectively with the people side of change.
Assessment Of An Enterprise-Level Business SystemTiffany Graham
This document analyzes the business processes at Platinum Concepts Pty Ltd and identifies areas for improvement. Currently, the company lacks automation and most work is done manually using paper-based systems. This leads to inefficiencies such as lost data, delays in fulfilling orders, and a lack of communication between departments. Implementing a business process management system through an ERP would address these issues by streamlining operations, facilitating information sharing, and supporting better strategic planning. Doing so could optimize workflows, enhance customer service, and help the company compete more effectively.

The document discusses focusing on business value and speed of delivery over other factors like cost and quality. It also discusses challenges with traditional software development approaches and emphasizes discovering customer value, prioritizing based on business needs, and delivering value in small increments.
The document discusses principles of program governance, focusing on delivering value to support growth while reducing costs. It emphasizes transitioning from operational effectiveness to strategy-focused management by placing operations as the foundation and installing strategy, objectives and metrics. Governance aims to close common gaps by managing resources and services through leadership and stewardship. Key aspects of governance include strategic alignment, execution excellence, financial accountability, operational innovation, and executing strategy through repeatable processes.
Lean Software Delivery with IBM Rational PlatformClay Nelson
This document discusses how principles of Lean Thinking from manufacturing can be applied to software delivery processes to improve quality and reduce waste. It defines Lean Thinking and the seven types of waste it aims to eliminate. Key principles for software delivery discussed include value flow to continuously deliver working software in a just-in-time manner, eliminating partially done work and extra features, and embracing iterative development approaches. The IBM Rational platform can help implement Lean approaches to transform software delivery.
The document provides best practices and recommendations for successfully championing an SAP business transformation program. It discusses key activities and deliverables needed in the planning, blueprint, and build phases of an implementation. In the planning phase, a solid business case, well-defined scope, and project charter are critical. The blueprint phase requires detailed business process documentation, fit-gap analysis, and sign-off from stakeholders. Finally, the build phase must ensure quality functional and technical designs are reviewed, data migration is on track, and comprehensive user acceptance testing scenarios are defined. Adhering to these practices can help ensure a transformation program meets its objectives.
The document discusses principles of program governance, which focuses on delivering products or services to support revenue growth while reducing costs. Effective program governance transitions organizations from solely focusing on operational effectiveness to also prioritizing strategy. This involves installing strategy, objectives and metrics to manage operations strategically. Drivers for governance include addressing perceived costs, integrating siloed business processes, and increasing visibility of costs and value. The role of governance is to provide strategic leadership, manage from a customer perspective, and reduce alignment, execution and innovation gaps between business units.
Spanning people, processes, and technologies: The business case for Collabora...IBM Rational software

Key benefits of collaborative DevOps include aligning metrics and priorities between teams to reduce conflicting incentives, adopting a shared view of technical debt to minimize costs passed between teams, and gaining efficiencies across the entire software development and delivery process.
Whitepaper - Connected Project Portfolio Management in the Oil & Gas IndustryAshwin Menon
One vital question often asked by executives dealing with an ever-changing market landscape is, “How should my company most effectively invest in in order to grow our revenue, capture market share, and increase profitability?"
To sustain long-term growth, companies must manage a number of projects at different stages of maturity. Many organizations struggle with capturing the voice of the customer, and translating that input into executable projects staffed with the right resources, while also ensuring adequate due diligence to make certain that projects align to corporate strategy and meet market expectations. Companies that more effectively manage this process position themselves for greater revenue realization, market share, and/or profitability.
Capital project portfolio management is all about making decisions about investment mix, matching investments to objectives and aligning them to strategy, allocating the right resources to the right projects, and balancing risk against performance.
This document offers our point of view on how capital project portfolio management must be implemented, how SAP can help, and some of the leading practices we have seen.
Industries across the globe are burgeoning. Stiff
competition has permeated every stratum among
enterprises. To sustain themselves in such an environment,
companies are seeking new and improved methods by which
they can revamp their business and also their existing
production processes. With the emphasis firmly resting on the requirement for
more robust processes, companies are transforming their
project plans drastically. Now, the buzz and objective is to
move on to a more adaptive process that ushers in change
and provides results. Moreover, businesses need a process
that offers enhanced flexibility which can alter the very
nature of the process itself.

How enterprise agility brings the real changeKaty Slemon
Enterprise agility involves adopting agile methodologies across entire organizations rather than just development teams. This allows companies to lower costs, improve customer satisfaction, and increase employee engagement. Some benefits of enterprise agility transformations include improved financial performance for around 65% of companies. Achieving enterprise agility requires adopting agile processes, business models, products/services, operating models, and commerce through techniques like process mining, platform-based models, modular design, and AI-driven pricing. Businesses can bring change through enterprise agility by adopting an agile mindset, hybrid frameworks, cross-functional teams, incorporating agility top-down and bottom-up, shifting testing left, and including agility in metrics and budgets.
Key elements of it portfolio management Dipak PimpaleDipak Pimpale
An IT portfolio rationalises and organises IT applications to meet specific business purposes. By identifying the best combination of multiple applications and projects, you can enable and optimize business processes and accelerate decision making on an executive level. The analysis of current and future applications in the organization identifies gaps and shortcomings to improve the IT portfolio. This greater visibility to projects creates a single source for each IT portfolio, including potential investment.
Goal-Driven
IT portfolio management is driven by clear visibility of demands. Portfolio management can improve performance through effective use of resources, funding, assets and processes to maximise business value. You can manage budgets and prioritize projects based on an overall budget. Much like a traditional stock portfolio, it requires a risk to reward analysis. Adopt a management system that allows you to alter or cancel projects that provide a lower ROI.
IT portfolio management emphasises a strategic focus on goals such as revenue growth, cost reduction, and business continuity, rather than operational objectives. It requires input from across the organization, from finance managers to IT managers. The goal is to maximize value through selection, optimization and monitoring.
According to Gartner, 70% of social implementations fail because they lack a business purpose. When it comes to harnessing the power of social software, a focus on business value is required. This whitepaper defines a strategic framework for gaining business value from social software. It outlines six successful rollout strategies. Each of the six approaches delivers different business results, and has a different level of risk. And most importantly, each has different requirements to succeed. To be successful with social software, you need to choose the rollout strategy that is best for your organization, and understand its requirements for success.

UI5con 2024 - Bring Your Own Design SystemPeter Muessig
How do you combine the OpenUI5/SAPUI5 programming model with a design system that makes its controls available as Web Components? Since OpenUI5/SAPUI5 1.120, the framework supports the integration of any Web Components. This makes it possible, for example, to natively embed own Web Components of your design system which are created with Stencil. The integration embeds the Web Components in a way that they can be used naturally in XMLViews, like with standard UI5 controls, and can be bound with data binding. Learn how you can also make use of the Web Components base class in OpenUI5/SAPUI5 to also integrate your Web Components and get inspired by the solution to generate a custom UI5 library providing the Web Components control wrappers for the native ones.
If I am going to scale agile to most of my organization, what do we need to do at the portfolio level?
1. If I am going to scale agile to most of my organization,
what do we need to do at the portfolio level?
June 2016
Scope of Report
In this report, we suggest some considerations for executives seeking to grow the number of agile teams in their
organization. At some point, changes are needed at the top. In particular, the portfolio management team needs
to reorganize the proposed software development work to allow it to be pulled by the programs and teams from a
portfolio backlog prioritized by economic value.
Definition
In “Agile Software Requirements,” Dean Leffingwell (a founder of the Scaled Agile Framework® or SAFe®
quotes Mikko Parkolla’s description of portfolio management:
Portfolio management is a top-level authority that makes long-term investment decisions on strategic
areas that affect the business performance of the company.
The main responsibility of portfolio management is to set the investment levels between business areas,
product lines, different products, and strategic portfolio investment themes; these are a collection of
related strategic initiatives.
Leffingwell goes on to list three sets of activities that should be under the control or influence of the organizations’
software portfolio management team:
Investment funding: Determining the allocation of the company’s scarce R&D resources to various
products and services.
Change management: Fact patterns change over time, and the business must react with new plans, budgets
and expectations.
Governance and oversight: Assuring that the programs remain on track and that they follow the
appropriate corporate rules, guidelines, and relevant standards.
As organizations start to establish Agile outside of a few isolated teams, introducing or refocusing a portfolio
management team will be a big part of the change. To stand any chance of success, using business value as the
driver for the improvement of software development, the leaders of the organization must first instil a culture of
lean software development.
Lean Software Development
The first step in establishing software value strategies is to learn about and commit to a philosophy of lean
software development. We do not have space to dive too deeply into the theory and history of lean manufacturing
and the evolution of lean software engineering in this report. Interested readers should refer first to “Implementing
lean software development” by Mary and Tom Poppendieck. Instead, we focus on some important ideas from
