My Project Portfolio
The project list is a container that collects all the created projects.
It provides a concise overview of the collective projects within the system, presenting their primary information aggregated at the project level.
Project Portfolio
A project portfolio is a container with projects. Project portfolios are used to structure and sort the project landscape.
Any number of project portfolios can be created and a portfolio can contain any number of projects.
PQFORCE does not prescribe any particular structure, because fundamentally there is no best approach to structuring the project landscape. The organization of the project landscape varies from company to company and is determined by internal project governance.
The added value generated in PQFORCE by portfolios are the various customizable overviews that can be generated at the portfolio level for all projects contained in it. With a few clicks, you can find consolidated data and information on a portfolio, which is automatically compiled in real time.
