Integrated Portfolio Management Suite – Overview
I developed with my team during the last one and half year for an international company a standard Integrated Portfolio Management Suite (IPM-SUITE), The IPM-Suite is an out of the box Platform allowing your enterprise to achieve the following objectives:
- Standardize all workflows of portfolio, program and project management
- Maximise the collaborative level of the cooperation model based on jira
- Integrate the process and product management process
- Establish a traceability between all artefacts and control dependencies
- Establish a real time status reporting on all levels and proactively mitigate risks and issues
- Provide a digital operating process to achieve the digital transformation of business processes
- Define and monitor KPI’s in all domains
- Integrate agile and waterfall methods, scaled up to portfolio level
The IPM-Suite covers the following Domains with standard capabilities derived from standard methodologies
- Portfolio Management Support : From Strategy to Project Execution

The IPM-SUITE platform is based on:
- Atlassian Platform (Jira and Confluence)
- Selected well proved standard Jira Plug-Ins
- Tableau or Power BI
The IPM-SUITE platform provides
- A standard data model of issue types, links and custom fields
- Additional self-implemented plug-ins to extend the functionality of the Atlassian platform
- A standard database storage of process information (different from technical database of jira)
- Integration with data driven reporting platforms (Tableau)
- Several KPI’s and Central Dashboards
- Hosting of Atlassian platform on promise (with our Partners)
Our collected deep know-how for 17 years supporting large projects, programs and portfolios allowed us to specify and realise our IPM-SUITE platform based on best practices and closed to daily pragmatic way of working.
If you already use Jira and Confluence or plan to deploy in your company and you plan to digitalise your portfolio management process then our Framework is an advisable option to support you. A quick tour in our knowledge base provide you an overview of out of the box capabilities and customisations potential for every key domain of portfolio management.
During a consulting phase your requirements can be contrasted with the IPM-SUITE platform, configurations and customisation changes can be agreed, if necessary. We provide you the IPM-SUITE platform based on T&M or fixed Price Base.
