Noblestar's service offerings include:

IT Portfolio Management Assessments

Not every firm is at the same level of IT Portfolio Management maturity or needs the same level of rigor or process. Furthermore, successful IT Portfolio Management has a number of organizational capability dependencies which often don’t exist. Our team of experts will review your organization’s capabilities and map them to readiness for portfolio management. We will prepare a roadmap based on your capabilities as well as business imperatives. This roadmap can, if desired, include the adoption of IT Portfolio Management tools such as Rational Portfolio Manager (RPM).

Discipline Adoption Framework

IT Portfolio Management Process Adoption

While many organizations have mature project and program management processes, many don’t have any for IT Portfolio Management. And while there are large bodies of knowledge to cover these topics such as the Rational Unified Process and the Project Management Institutes Project Management Book of Knowledge (PMI PMBOK), little actionable process documentation exists for IT Portfolio Management. Noblestar consultants bring an IT Portfolio Management process baseline, and tailor it to your specific needs. Using process management tools like Rational Method Composer (RMC), we’ll provide the right level of detail to help you achieve your objectives. We’ll also help you integrate your current project and operational processes such as ITIL, with IT Portfolio Management.

IT Portfolio Management Tool Adoption

IT Portfolio Management tools are powerful and complex, similar in scope to Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) tools like PeopleSoft. Adoption of tools like RPM are more complicated than many of the other Rational tools and typically involve a much broader audience including senior business management. Noblestar, with a long history of package implementation, has applied this expertise to develop a proven approach to implementing and adopting these tools. Our experience with both the installation as well as the configuration, accelerates the speed at which you can truly get value from these tools.
