There is an increasing amount of scrutiny on how PMs, PMOs and CTO/CIOs spend their project dollars. Larger organizations face the challenge of understanding and integrating (sometimes in an analog fashion) many portfolios with different PPM tools, Databases, and Financial Systems. Some offices still manage hundreds of millions of dollars using just a spreadsheet. Strategic plans and Enterprise Architectures are often ignored and have little impact on project and spending decisions. This creates a situation where senior and accountable decision-makers do not know how their budgets are being spent and used at the project level, and have no tools to ensure compliance and transparency. As the organization continues to grow, these challenges deepen. Having a BI tool that can only provide insights without a clear system of record cannot solve this problem.
