Greetings all, this is my first Wikipedia article (I have been contributing for some time). I know that new articles are scrutinized by many more experienced folks and welcome all feedback. I hope that I have made the case that this merits its own entry.
I do not believe there are any particular religious wars going on in this subject so far, and did strive for NPOV as far as it is relevant.
One question I have: with no financial interest at stake in any of these firms, I would still like to list vendors of portfolio management tooling, as the existence of this market segment is further support for this article's existence. Comments?

Is there a consensus as to the difference and similarity between portfolio management and programme management from an ICT perspective? Mark G 10:15, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
I am not sure how else you would pronounce "CICS". I don't think the Brits have a monopoly on the pronunciation. I stumbled across this Wiki entry after doing some research on what I termed Application Portfolio Management (APM). Gartner make the clear distinction between APM and Project Portfolio Management. APM is an asset management approach (eg. when do you kill off an old application to give you resources to work on your new stuff) rather than a project portfolio approach. A programme is an aggregration of projects (eg. replacement of mainframe applications) but could managed as large project if needed.-- AntonyKimber 02:32, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
I'm afraid that I am not familiar with McFarlan's work but the matrix in this article does not appear to be a Project portfolio matrix. It appears to be an application portfolio matrix, useful for categorizing the actual IT asset, not the investment or initiative that generated it. Would it be more appropriate to move the matrix to the Application Portfolio Management article?

I'm not quite sure I like the articles take on "Resource Portfolio Management". It lives with Application and Project, but resources (meaning humans as it is worded right now), may not really be what we're looking for here. Normally three things make an organization capable:
The current definition in the article of the third leg (RPM) has left out that you're only capable given not just the right people, but also the right processes, and tools. I would argue a re-writing of RPM into Capability Portfolio Management making it include the "how" and "with what" and not just the "who". -- Sstaunb ( talk) 07:04, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
