Ken Martin has extensive experience in business, IT, and project management across several large companies. He discusses the benefits of project portfolio management (PPM), which include improved alignment with business strategy, visibility and control, collaboration, pipeline and resource management, financial management, and risk management. Without effective PPM, organizations can experience issues like approving projects that don't meet strategic needs, not having clear priorities, and overallocating resources. Key actions for implementing PPM include gaining stakeholder alignment, obtaining management support, developing a framework, and deciding on tools and reporting. The PPM process involves gathering all project data, prioritizing projects, assigning resources, and ongoing monitoring.
Project portfolio management (PPM) involves the logical selection and execution of projects to achieve strategic business goals. An effective PPM system identifies, analyzes, and prioritizes projects based on value. The primary benefit of PPM is that only projects aligned with strategic goals will be selected. PPM evaluates projects throughout their lifecycle to ensure continued alignment. PPM uses various tools and techniques to prioritize projects based on financial, strategic, and other organizational factors. The goal is to select a mix of projects that does not exceed resources and delivers maximum value.

Tim opened his presentation with his tagline “the right projects, done right.” First of all it was about picking the best projects to achieve policy intent and strategic benefit. We shouldn’t try to do too many projects and those that we do choose absolutely need to be prioritised and delivered properly.
The MPA has a comparatively small team (just 80 members of staff) and needs therefore to target its efforts very carefully. Their priority is to identify the best ways to support individual departments with an emphasis on building capability across government. Their objective is to develop understanding rather than push centralised processes.
They have identified 5 key priorities:
1.Challenge, assure and support – Providing expert advice and support to departments ensuring the delivery of major projects
2.Create project based controls through alignment – Providing project teams space to ‘get on and do’ projects
3.Building long term capability – Continuing to build a cadre of experienced project leaders
4.Building the profession – Ensuring that the Civil Service is the ‘place to come’ for project delivery professionals
5.Strategic prioritisation and front end loading – Having the right conversations about department portfolios / ensuring projects are only started when they are ready

Infrastructure and Projects Authority and Infrastructure
Client Group
Infrastructure shapes the way we live and is the foundation on which a successful economy
is built. Transport links get us where we need to be, energy systems power our homes and
businesses, and digital networks allow us to communicate. It is vital to improving our quality
of life and integral to the creation of a vibrant economy.
The government is committed to delivering the high-quality infrastructure that the UK
needs to build and sustain a more productive economy. To achieve this the government has
committed to spend £100 billion on infrastructure this Parliament. This investment will create
jobs and raise productivity.
To help realise the benefits from this investment the government created the Infrastructure
and Projects Authority (IPA) as the government’s centre of expertise for project
development and delivery. The IPA’s Cost Review and the NAO report on delivering major
government projects identified the early stages of projects as a common source of failure on
infrastructure projects. The original Project Initiation Routemap (Routemap) helped address
these challenges and this update, which expands to include all construction projects and adds
new modules, will enhance that work, helping provide the UK with the infrastructure it needs
to thrive.
The Infrastructure Client Group demonstrates the value of effective collaboration
between government and industry to support the development and exchange of best
practice to improve delivery. Initially brought together by government to support the work of
the Infrastructure Cost Review, the membership of this group is representative of the major
infrastructure clients. It has been instrumental in setting a common agenda for change and
supports a programme of activities and applied knowledge transfer across the public and
private sectors. The success of this initiative has been made possible by the continued and
valuable support from industry and academic partners.
Preface
Since the launch of the Routemap over 20 major projects across the transport, water, flood
defence and energy sectors have undergone a Routemap assessment, helping to drive their
successful delivery. Yet there is still work to do as projects continue to face challenges.
The recent NAO report on Delivering Major Projects in Government (2016) and the Infrastructure
UK Cost Review (2010) both noted that projects continued to encounter problems in their
early stages - and, particularly, that projects often publicly announced timelines and costs
before plans have been properly tested. The report also identified a lack of project capability
especially at portfolio level. The Routemap will help address these challenges by offering
support on strategic decision making during project initiation based on the latest thinking
and knowledge acquired from delivery of Major Projects applied in a series of structured
exercises. It enables sponsors and those responsible for project delivery to properly align
complexity with the necessary capabilities and other enhancements to ensure a more
successful outcome.
The Project Initiation Routemap is a product of government working collaboratively with
industry and the University of Leeds, through the Infrastructure Client Group.
Building on its success with economic infrastructure, the Routemap is being expanded to
cover all construction projects and longer-term transformation projects as well. As part of this
expansion two new modules are being added, for Risk Management and Asset Management
alongside the existing topics on Requirements, Governance, Procurement, Execution Strategy
and Organisational Design & Development. The new Risk Management Module covers the
best practice in how to develop the project’s approach to risk management during the
initiation phase. The Asset Management Module provides advice on how to structure and
manage the interaction between the project team and the corporate asset management
function to successfully deliver project outcomes.

Introduction: Align for Success - Asset Management
The Project Initiation Routemap (Routemap) is an aid to strategic decision-
making. It supports the alignment of the sponsor and client capability to
meet the degree of challenge during initiation and delivery of a project *.
It provides an objective and structured approach to project initiation
founded on a set of assessment tools.
The assessment tools help determine:
The context and complexity of the delivery environment;
The current and required sponsor, client, asset manager and
market capability;
Key considerations to enhance capability where complexity-capability
gaps are identified.
The Routemap provides further diagnostics on addressing common
capability gaps that typically need to be enhanced, such as blurred
governance structures, or lack of alignment between benefits and
requirements. These areas are explored in more depth in a number of
Align for Success modules.
The purpose of each Align for Success module is to help:
Gain a greater understanding of the complexity-capability results;
Identify and analyse options to better align complexity-capability;
Plan for successful achievement of desired outcomes;
Assure enhancement plans during implementation.
Application of the Asset Management module helps to ensure that the project not only delivers working assets at handover into operations, but
sustainable, longer term benefits and managed asset risks through the life of those assets.

There is no clear lifecycle asset management strategy in the asset manager organisation
articulated to sponsor or client
There are no or inadequate lifecycle parameters – such as asset reliability, availability, cost of
maintenance, or operability – defined in the requirements
The project initiation and delivery focuses on processes to the detriment of outcomes and
associated asset management goals
There is no current requirement specified or plan and budget in place to develop lifecycle asset
strategies, particularly for maintenance, asset information, and risk management, in the project
before handover to operations and maintenance
There is no clear role/dedicated resource on the project specifically tasked with providing the
whole life asset knowledge and articulating the asset vision so as to optimise achievement of
the organisational goals
There is no strategic engagement with the operators and/or supply chain to ensure that the
project solution is defined, developed, constructed and handed over appropriately
There is limited use of Asset Information in developing project requirements and BIM is not
built into project development activity.
The project requirements, business case and design indicate a lack of future thinking and/or
inadequate links to a corporate asset management strategy.
The project has been assessed in isolation without reference to the business and asset
management strategy
Poor decision-making, governance structures and processes undermine the integrated asset
strategy
Poor development and retention of Asset Management capability leads to inadequate asset
management and, in turn, to less than optimum whole life value
7. 7
Why is Asset Management important?
Too often decisions are made during project initiation and
delivery that lead to inadequate customer service or higher than
anticipated operational and whole life cost, to assets that are not
required or that never deliver what was required, or that pose
unforeseen business risk.
Only by explicitly addressing the question of what happens‘after
the project’can organisations ensure they will really get what they
need to realise the envisaged benefits.
The benefits of good practice Asset Management have been
shown to include:
•
optimised value for money
•
improved understanding of the whole asset life costs (‘total
cost of ownership’) and value
•
clarity about the key lifecycle performance parameters,
including asset availability, reliability, quality and operational
requirements
•
enhanced business reputation
• improved relationships with key stakeholders
Characteristics of effective Asset Management
Effective Asset Management delivers the right assets and capability
to meet requirements and achieve the benefits in the short, medium
and long term. Experience shows that organisations are more likely to
maximise the realisation of project benefits when there is:
•
clear‘lifecycle’and enabling strategies covering operations,
maintenance, risk management, asset information, supply chain
(operational as well as capital) and cost
•
investment designed to deliver best whole life asset management
outcomes unconstrained by annualarity or capital/revenue
settlement splits
•
integrated planning for handover to operations that considers the
operational capability and information requirements as well as the
operational impacts
•
confirmation of benefit delivery and capture of lessons learned
through post-delivery review
Emerging best practice also increasingly includes the equivalent of a
dedicated‘project asset manager’role – someone with the skills and
time to oversee the project from a longer term business perspective.
Why Asset Management Matters: What is Asset Management?
Intelligent Asset Management is the optimal lifecycle management of a system of physical assets to achieve the stated business objectives.
It counters excessive focus on project (as opposed to benefit) delivery.
The purposes of applying good Asset Management to project delivery are to:
ensure the project is focused on delivering the required long-term as well as immediate benefits
consider the total cost of ownership as well as the benefits over the practical life of the assets
ensure benefit realisation through integrating the capital and operational delivery benefits of the project back into the client’s asset system

Why Asset Management Matters: Asset Module Overview
10. 10
This section lists a series of questions that might be considered when
validating an approach to Project Asset Management. Considering
these questions helps the project team to form an effective asset
management strategy and target areas for enhancement.
Prior to asking these question the output from the Routemap capability
and complexity assessments should be reviewed for any factors relating
to asset management.
Pillars of Asset Management
To successfully deliver the project outcomes the relationship between
corporate asset management and the project team is key. The benefits
to the business will only be realised through the combined capability of
both client and asset manager. The structure of this module will guide
sponsors and clients through the 3 pillars of asset management to
reflect on and develop their approach to asset management.
To engage in effective asset management the sponsor and client need
to understand the following:
Pillar 1 - Strategic Alignment and Outcomes
The asset management context within which the project is operating
Pillar 2 - Whole Life Value
How to optimise whole life value from the project outcomes
Pillar 3 - Performance and information
How to use asset performance and information to shape project
development and delivery of outcomes

Asset Management Strategy
Is there a clear strategy for the overall asset portfolio and the associated resources, information and other enablers
to develop and deliver this?
Is there a forward looking, risk-based strategy based on an understanding of the relationships between assets and
business outputs for example levels of service?
Does the proposed project or programme fit within the asset management strategy and the corporate objectives?
Has the optimum approach for the business case been derived and is it still appropriate? It may be a balance of
operational and capital activities, including activities elsewhere in the portfolio.
Is there an appropriate prioritisation mechanism for asset interventions linked to the organisation’s corporate
goals?
Is there appropriate and aligned decision-making (planning, capital and operational) that consistently considers
the whole asset life and value?

The organisational context within which a project is commissioned will hold significant influence over the success of delivering the asset management
outcomes. Factors such as the funding model, policy decisions and any associated conditions of settlement imposed by sponsors can compromise achieving
the asset management benefits.
To illustrate this point the case study below demonstrates how Scottish Power have a funding model which supports whole life asset management and
enables them to align their project delivery to this. Scottish Power are a recognised industry leader in optimal management of physical assets having been
the first power generator to be certified against the revised version of BSI Publicly Available Specification 55 (PAS 55-1:2008) following a stringent process of
assessment which benchmarks best practice in asset management.

Assessment
Supporting Material: Identifying Asset Management Capability
Building on understanding the strategic context for the project, the complexity of the task can be assessed. In the Routemap we do this through applying
the Delivery Environment Complexity Analytic (DECA). Determining the complexity will enable you to consider the capability required to deliver the project.
In Asset Management it is important to consider both the organisational and project team capability as the benefits will be derived long after the project
has completed. A successful project delivers an asset which seamlessly integrates back into the corporate asset base, through a balance of the 3 factors
understanding complexity, organisational capability and project team capability. If there is a gap identified understand which of the 3 factors needs
to be adjusted to bring about alignment and successful delivery.

Supporting Material: The right capability at the right time
Whilst aligning the complexity and project/organisation capabilities will set you up for success, the level of capability required by the project will fluctuate
through its lifecycle. The diagram below demonstrates the most critical periods for strong Asset Management capability to support the project team along
with a quick checklist for the Project Asset Manager Role.
A Project Asset Manager Role should be an integral part of to the project team throughout the lifecycle of the project, programme or delivery portfolio.
The availability of a specific capability is key to ensuring that operational requirements are properly included at the start, because the project asset manager
has an ongoing working relationship with operations; to supporting the development of lifecycle strategies, and ensuring not only the asset but as-built
information and lifecycle strategies are handed over to operations; and in leading the post-delivery review.
Tip:
Be sure to include any
conclusions about when
you require asset and
management capability and
where you secure it from into
the Organisation Design and
Development plan.

Function, usually in the form of provision of technical

Mature corporate asset management function second
a project asset manager into the Project team. This
enables appropriate input into the development and
delivery of the project ensuring asset management
outcomes are delivered and a smooth handover to
operations upon project completion. In order for
this model to work successfully the project asset
manager needs to be given sufficient decision making
accountability and time away from their day job in the
corporate asset management function.
The immature or absent corporate asset management
function is not able to provide expertise into the project
team. This could be because the asset type being
created is completely new or the ultimate asset owner/
operator cannot be identified at project inception. It
is therefore the responsibility of the project team to
bring in an appropriate project asset manager who
will support project development and delivery. This
capability will then transition (either in person or their
knowledge) into the new corporate asset management
function required to maintain and operate the asset
upon completion.

How do we structure project governance to
ensure asset management outcomes are protected?
The governance of a project team needs to balance the asset management capability (corporate and project team) and the complexity of the project. The
three models set out below give different examples of how the relationship between a corporate asset management function and project team can be
structured in order to deliver the asset management outcomes successfully.
Key Characteristics:
• Project of low complexity
• Mature corporate asset management function
•
Minimal number of asset management
stakeholders i.e. users/ operators/ maintainers
Key Characteristics:
• Project of medium/high complexity
• Mature corporate asset management function
•
Established relationships with asset management
stakeholders e.g. users
Key Characteristics:
•
Project of high complexity (innovative new
technology)
•
Immature or absent (new asset) corporate asset

“At Network Rail we have been developing and applying whole life cost methods and tools for over a decade. As a result of this work, our asset
policies have greater consistency, stronger justification, and provide increased confidence that the required level of infrastructure performance will
be delivered in a sustainable way at the lowest whole life, whole system cost” – Andy Kirwan, Network Rail
Supporting Material: Asset Management Scenario Planning Project Options
As part of the whole life risk and value exercise, scenario planning enables options to be tested and compared to make informed decisions. Properly making
use of asset information enables this to happen at both a policy/programme and project level as demonstrated in the diagram below. The evidence from
this exercise can be used to challenge Corporate constraints to whole life asset management value, for example if annularity of funding settlements is
limiting best value.

“Risk Value has become an integral part of how we make decisions in our investment
programme over the last 2 regulatory periods. The challenge that it brings, along with
the use of objective data, means that we can very easily apply the same robust and
collaborative decision making process across everything from the introduction of a new
software package through to building a major Water Treatment Works. It helped us to
enable the 20% efficiency delivered through our last 5 year period so the results speak
for themselves. This, as well as the fact that the whole process is built on such simple
common sense principles, has enabled us to make this ‘the way we do things’ ”
– Emma Muir, Anglian Water
Supporting Material: Whole life risk and value planning
The inputs for scenario planning need to take the risk drivers and efficiency opportunities related to the different options and quantify them to enable
comparison and evaluation of the most appropriate options to take place. The accuracy and value of this exercise is underpinned by the quality of the asset
information available to the project team. There is a key role here for BIM both in ensuring robust asset information is available and in facilitating
scenario planning. The very nature of whole life asset planning means it is has a significant impact on the cost drivers for project options when considered
over the whole life of the investment.
It could be that other factors such as market capability, project team skills and innovation in design will impact more on the initial capital investment cost
whereas in terms of whole life value for money understanding the asset management context and correctly using performance data will more likely drive
project success. On this basis it is important to consider whole life cost/benefit including appropriate sensitivity analysis in project decision making.
Tip:
The Risk Management
Module has useful advice on
how to assess risk and value
different project options
depending on the current
capability of the project
team and the maturity of the

Supporting Material: Managing Asset interests in delivery
Over the lifecycle of the project, the ownership of the asset management benefits it delivers move from the corporate asset management function into the
project team and then back again upon project completion and close. All of the mechanisms discussed in this module are designed to manage this transfer
and protect the anticipated benefits until they are realised over the lifecycle of the asset.

Tip:
During the development of the
Olympic Stadium the Olympic Delivery
Authority were tasked with delivering
the asset management outcomes
required for a successful games. A
specific example of them taking
ownership of the benefits during
the project delivery phase was in the
design decision around whether to
include a roof on the Olympic Stadium.
This was a decision to balance the
short term games operation which
preferred a roof in order to control
wind speed more reliably against
the whole life operational use of the
stadium beyond the games themselves
did not require a roof. The learning
point here is that the project team
were appropriately empowered
and possessed adequate capability
to determine the risks to make the
decision not to include the roof,
which resulted in the outcomes being
achieved and value optimised.

Asset Manager
The asset manager is the organisation (or parts of it) that is responsible
for day-
to-
day operations and maintenance of the asset once it is
delivered. The asset manager may be a part of the sponsor and/or client
organisations or a separate entity. Similarly the operator and maintainer
may be separate entities.
Asset Management
‘Asset Management’ is the co-
ordinated activity of organisations
to realise value from their physical assets. The aim is the optimal
management of the assets throughout their lifecycle to deliver
organisational objectives now and into the future, and so is clearly of
major concern to both sponsor and asset manager. The challenge is to
ensure lifecycle considerations are also made a concern for the client.
Client
The client is the organisation that is responsible for fulfilling the project
requirements and delivering the benefits. The client translates the
requirements from the sponsor and manages the delivery outcomes,
which naturally includes delivery of the asset/s to the asset manager.
Portfolio
The collection of assets, asset systems and associated projects and
activities managed by the asset management organisation.
Project
Throughout this guide the term project is used to mean both project
and programme.
Project asset manager
A new role identified by some asset manager organisations to ensure
lifecycle requirements are fully considered at every stage of a project,
from requirements to handover. They may or may not be a sponsor, or
work for the sponsor organisation; they will have strong links to the asset
manager organisation.
RAMS (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, Safety)
RAMS stands for Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety. These
four properties are important lifecycle attributes of assets.
•
Reliability denotes an asset or system’s ability to perform the required
function, and is the inverse of its probability of failure
•
Availability refers to an asset or system being available to carry out its
required function when required, and is a function of both reliability
and maintainability
•
Maintainability is determined by the ease or speed with which an asset
or system can be maintained or repaired
•
Safety denotes the risk for harming people, in particular, but also the
environment or other assets
Sponsor
The sponsor owns the business case and is responsible for specifying the
requirements to the client. In most cases the sponsor also secures the
funding. As owner of the business case, the sponsor is responsible for
ensuring strategic alignment of the project and achieving the optimum
whole life value.
Whole Life Costs
Whole life costs refers to the ‘total cost of ownership’ of an asset or asset
system, and this includes asset creation (purchase price, installation,
design, construction), operations, maintenance, refurbishment and
disposal costs. It also includes the consequential cost of asset failure, in
other words how much the asset costs when it does not function as
required. This itself is the inverse of the benefit to the owner when it
does function.
