"The Roman bridges of antiquity were very inefficient structures. By modern standards, they used too much stone, and as a result, far too much labor to build. Over the years we have learned to build bridges more efficiently, using fewer materials and less labor to perform the same task." Tom Clancy (The Sum of All Fears)

Project Portfolio Management
An increasing number of organisations are using, what is referred to as, project portfolio management (PPM) as a means of selecting the right projects and then using project management techniques as the means for delivering the outcomes in the form of benefits to the performing private or not-for-profit organisation.

Project management methods are used 'to do projects right' and the methods used in PPM are used 'to do the right projects'. In effect PPM is becoming the method of choice for selection and prioritising among resource inter-related projects in many industries and sectors.

Exponªnt uses our project management competency to implement Project Portfolio Management solutions to our clients. Exponªnt has selected a locally developed Project Portfolio product which was developed in South Africa in collaboration with experienced project and portfolio managers. We are thus able to compete with local and foreign products in terms of quality and price. In addition we understand the local market and requirements better than most and all development, implementation and support skills are based in South Africa.
