What EPMO Leaders Can Do with Shibumi
Define Key Outcomes and Metrics
Working in Shibumi helps everyone in your organization get on the same page about the desired outcomes and success metrics for your strategic programs and projects. This alignment will improve the likelihood that the projects you pursue will produce the desired outcomes.
Optimize Project Mix
Shibumi can help you do better analysis to select the right projects. Program and project leaders can enter business case information and resources and budget requests for their projects in Shibumi. Our Scenario Planner uses this data to tell you what happens to forecasted benefits, costs, and roadmap resources when different sets of initiatives are selected.
Standardize Your Approval Process
Maintain an organized approval process with transparent and relevant criteria and stage gates to improve decision-making and speed, so your business can reap the benefits of transformation more quickly.
Manage Resources, Work Plans, Risks, and Issues
Your program and project teams can create detailed, interactive work plans and roadmaps in Shibumi — or Shibumi can integrate with your existing project management tools to update key data points in real time. EPMO leaders can quickly spot issues that hinder the achievement of strategic goals (e.g., a missed milestone with downstream implications) — so they can step in to address these issues before it’s too late.
Measure Business Benefits
No more wrestling with spreadsheets to understand the benefits and value realized from projects. Shibumi automatically aggregates realized benefits from individual projects and programs to the portfolio level. Decision-makers gain clarity on what worked and what didn’t and can make future investment decisions with confidence.
