eCision
Stratnet is proud to introduce eCision! Success requires a good strategy and well-planned objectives. But selecting the things that your organization does—the projects it invests in—may even be more important. If the projects you undertake are not properly aligned with your strategy, then it may not matter how good it is. Fortunately, Stratnet has the solution for you... Stratnet's eCision will help you align the opportunities and projects that compete for your resources with your organization’s strategy and capabilities. eCision is a web-enabled application that bridges the gap between organizational strategy and the successful management and delivery of projects: bridging strategy to execution. Now you can document, prioritize, and communicate the opportunities and projects that benefit your organization knowing how they align with your strategy and capabilities. eCision defines opportunities as any ideas, the realization of which will benefit your organization, and for which expenditures of capital and resources must be made. It defines projects as opportunities that have been fully approved with budgets and projects plans. All you do is follow the OM process to enter your opportunities into the database, see how they align with your strategy and capabilities, and how they align with other opportunities and projects in the portfolio. eCision leads you through the following stages of each new opportunity as you take it from concept to approval and hand a new project to your project management team. Even when the project has been taken over by the project team, you can still use eCision to track the project status, an important tool to help you to continue to monitor all the projects in your portfolio.
This stage helps you describe the opportunity, including the reasoning behind it and the expected advantages. You can then communicate this information with the other members of your team.
This stage provides for initial estimates of the opportunity cost and benefits and when the benefits are expected to begin. Additional business case information can be supplied, such as current state assessment, risk, risk management, and how to proceed. You can also add attachments that provide more detailed business case analysis and maintain these documents in a central repository.
Here is where you assess the opportunity against pre-defined values that reflect the organization’s strategy (displayed on the Y-axis of the grid) and capabilities (displayed on the X-axis).
This is where you set the management expectations to define the project drivers—Performance, Cost, and Schedule—and select a milestone template that provides the high-level deliverables of the project. This is the stage where the opportunity begins its transition to project status.
In these stages, you present the opportunity and project charter for approvals.
Once the project is approved and initiated, you can enter and update project status that will be displayed for all projects on the Project Status View of the Opportunity Dashboard (home page).
Create reports to see the opportunities that have been selected or cancelled. Customized reports may be created as part of implementation or later by your System Administrator.eCision Opportunity Dashboard
