Portfolio Management With Uffective

When planning and running IT portfolio management, there can be countless data points across an enormous range of tasks, making portfolio management a massive challenge for most companies.

Find out how Uffective can help you to better plan and organise your portfolio management and take it to the next level. 

Uffective Smart Start

To boost the decision impact of every Uffective user, we created Smart Start. Smart Start is your first page when entering Uffective. It is your central hub to access project information, deep dive into data analytics or to simply create new projects. The RESPONSIBILITIES include all you need to take care of your projects. Uffective will pro-actively inform you about critical milestones coming up, risks you should be aware of and need to mitigate, and decision required to move projects forward or tasks you are responsible for. The QUICK LINKS section is a real time collection of all the data items you have recently interacted with. You will find reports you have opened, projects you have worked with, as well as colleagues you have interacted with. The DIGITAL BLOG informs you about the latest actions your project team members have taken within your projects and the WHAT’S NEW section gives you an update on the latest feature developments

Project Prioritisation

Uffective offers a variety of visual overviews to help you to get a comprehensive view about your project portfolio. From classical Gantt charts, to custom specific project lists, to modern Kanban boards – choose whatever works best for you. Projects can be prioritised automatically by their financial impact (NPV, IRR, Cost of Delay or WSJF – weighted shortest job first), time to market, or by their strategic importance and overall benefit to the business via Uffective Boards. Portfolio scenario planning is enabled by linking projects to company KPIs such as revenue growth, customer acquisition, Net Promoter Score or cost savings. Depending on the strategic KPIs, which are prioritised by the portfolio management team, Uffective automatically suggests the most beneficial project implementation scenario.

  • Stay on top of your projects with easy-to-understand visuals. Whether you prefer Gantt charts, Kanban boards, or a customised approach, our platform gives you the essential information you need at a glance.

     

  • Make informed decisions about project prioritisation based on what matters most to you. With options to prioritise by financial impact, time to market, strategic importance, or overall benefit, you can be confident you’re putting your resources where they’ll have the biggest impact.

  • Stay aligned with your goals by linking your projects to key performance indicators (KPIs). Whether you’re focused on revenue growth, customer acquisition, NPS, or cost savings, our platform helps you track progress and measure success.

     

  • Streamline your implementation process with the help of machine learning. Our platform offers personalised recommendations to help you get the most out of your projects, so you can focus on delivering results. 

Uffective enables you to manage critical dependencies. These dependencies can occur, for example, between user-stories in different PI sprints, cross projects from different areas of the business, or within projects when it comes to resource availability.
