Motivation

With scope on limited resources, the requirements for an effective project and portfolio management are huge: in particular signals, that indicate time, budget and quality issues quite early in order to
start the right countermeasures, are needed. With special emphasis on this fact, SAP® AG offers modern, flexible and ergonomically advanced solutions for the strategic and operational (multi-) project and portfolio management (PPM, formerly (x)RPM/cProjects). Alternatively the SAP® Project System (PS) can be used together with the Investment Management (IM) as a classical ERP solution. Additionally, compact approaches for mid-size enterprises are presented.
