Sarvottam -

Integrating the critical elements of process, project, and portfolio management (3Ps) is a juggling act unless there are people, a methodology, and a set of enterprise-wide tools to address the desired outcome. It is not uncommon for companies to pursue a confusing array of projects, across a spectrum of processes, without a method of managing and controlling them. Understanding how processes perform and why has always been an essential part of managing a process driven enterprise. To improve visibility into processes, or what we often refer to as transparency, Bay and Baker has developed an enterprise-wide expert data system based tool that supports our optimization methods. We call this tool Sarvottam.

Sarvottam can support traditional transaction based processes as well as project based processes. As a result, managing with Sarvottam can provide a wide range of benefits

Portfolio creation and optimization against specific objectives

Scenario creation to compare portfolios and track combinations of portfolios

Automation of existing (or new) work breakdown structures

Resource capacity modeling and scheduling

Process measures and tracking

Project definition with work flows, resource assignments, and expanded information to support risk analysis, strategic alignment, and many other important attributes

The income statement is where good product ideas become good business investments

Many companies have traditionally treated product development as an expense with a future promise to deliver

Sarvottam links product development to the income statement by tracking the promise as well as the expense

Which projects to fund, when to hold and when to fold, and forward visibility for budgeting and planning become the focus

An example benefit of Portfolio Management is cash flow

Sarvottam uses Net Present Value (NPV), which is cumulative cash flow from a product development project at your discount rate

The cash flow impact of investing limited resources and its timing are measured and displayed

Scenario development and impact analysis is fast and accurate

Charts and reports can be customized and are easy to understand

Bay and Baker provides customized versions of Sarvottam as part of our implementation program, where appropriate. We will also demonstrate the capability using your data in our assessment report. It is available on our server or can be installed on yours. Access is simple – just point your browser to the application and you are ready to go.

The goal of a process improvement program must be to create and maintain a rate of improvement greater than that of the competition.
