Moreover, multi-region organizations or MNCs are driving the demand for project portfolio management tools to help them make better decisions and avoid uncertainties. The PPM market is expected to expand due to the widespread use of PPM solutions in data analytics to provide convenient services to customers at low costs in the BFSI, IT, and telecom sectors.
Impact of COVID-19 on Project Portfolio Management (PPM) Market:
To combat the rapidly spreading coronavirus, governments in many countries enforced stringent rules and regulations, including workforce policies that reduced the number of employees on-site to ensure that social distancing and self-isolation measures were adopted and the spread of the virus was limited. For instance, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has announced that 75% of its employees will operate from home on a permanent basis. Initiatives like these made it impossible for business organizations and project managers to track current projects or even assign new projects and resources using conventional project management methodologies. Therefore, these organizations adopted project portfolio management solutions, which provided them with specialized tools to strategize and execute projects.

Analyst Review
It can be difficult to match projects up to speed with high-level corporate goals as companies increase in size. Executive management has a difficult time prioritizing tasks, allocating resources, and maximizing productivity. Project portfolio management (PPM) comes to the rescue in these kinds of situations. PPM is a method for evaluating potential projects based on their likelihood of success and risks, and then allocating personnel, resources, and timelines to optimize organizational efficiency. Focusing on a single project at a time increases the chance of surged overhead and lowers ROI. Organizations will concentrate resources on the right projects at the right time by deploying a centralized project management as a portfolio. Furthermore, a centralized approach provides project managers a stable basis on which to execute effective projects — and it all begins with a strong PPM solution.
According to a survey published in 2017, 60% of organizations that participated in the survey claimed that they have established a PPM process to manage their projects and assets. Further, around 80% of these organizations that practice PPM for their businesses have two or more than two PPM solutions deployed in their organization.
Businesses are evolving with the changing times to maintain a balance between workload, efficiency, and productivity, which is getting harder than ever. Project portfolio management solutions are one of the key tools that help organizations manage their projects and resources with ease, which enhances organization’s overall productivity. Due to this, the demand for PPM solutions in modern day business organizations has increased and is expected to grow further in the coming years.
