About the EPMC

OVERVIEW

The Enterprise Portfolio Management Council (EPMC) is a nonprofit organization whose goal is to support and accelerate the development of Enterprise Portfolio Management processes, tools, and techniques for the betterment of shareholder value. Portfolio management, though still in its early stages of maturity, can help corporations gain a competitive advantage by improving efficiencies, lowering costs, and increasing the return on internal investments. With hundreds of billions of dollars spent each year on internal projects and programs, portfolio management offers the potential for vast savings.

CHARTER

The EPMC provides an environment where experienced portfolio management practitioners can share ideas, technologies, processes, tools, challenges, and successes.

GOALS

The organization's goal is to create a community of senior portfolio management executives representing a broad spectrum of industries and organizations, in order to fuel the expansion of the portfolio management body of knowledge. Over time, the EPMC aims to create an open infrastructure that will help establish capability standards, and allow member organizations to exchange assets, such as processes and technologies. By educating companies on the portfolio management approach, the EPMC can help guide new practitioners, create new ideas and tools, and over time improve the quality of deployment and the performance of member organizations. To help achieve this goal, the EPMC has been featured in leading publications, including CIO magazine, CFO.com, and Computerworld.
