 IT Portfolio Management... 15+ Years Later
 
 
 &nbsp\;
 by&nbsp\;Rob Donnellan
 It was 2002. &nbsp\;To generate interest in&nbsp\
 ;PMOffice\, its Project Portfolio Management solution\, software vendor Sy
 stemcorp felt it needed to educate the marketplace.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;
 META G
 roup (at the time\, a key Gartner Group competitor) had established a team
  of consultants in 1999 to develop an IT Portfolio Management practice. &n
 bsp\;The conceptual foundation for the practice was that the IT organizati
 on should not be treated as a cost center\, but as a value center. &nbsp\;
 In fact\, the “IT Portfolio Management” label came from applying a sto
 ck market investing analogy to the treatment of an organization's IT asset
 s. &nbsp\;&nbsp\;
 Systemcorp paid to have Rob Donnellan\, one of the ori
 ginal members of the META Group team\, deliver an IT Portfolio Management&
 nbsp\;presentation to&nbsp\;PMI groups across the US.
 Let’s discuss:

  * The original META Group definition of IT Portfolio Management in 2002.
 
 * How has the definition evolved?
 * What parts of it can we say have -
  and have not - been adopted in the marketplace?
 * How well has the defi
 nition stood the test of time?
 * How does it connect to project/program&
 nbsp\;management?
