Confirm portfolio scope

Portfolio Manager creates Portfolios (one per major investment theme) and Programs inside each (Programs may nest via ParentProgram). Each Portfolio has an Owner (PortfolioManager), an ExecutiveSponsor, a Charter (markdown), and target-mix percentages. Each Program has an Owner (ProgramManager).

Approval required

Review funding

Initiative Owner files a FundingAllocations row (RequestedAmount, FiscalYear, Justification) which routes to Portfolio Manager + Finance for joint review. On Status: Approved, the system creates or updates a BudgetAllocations line item against the matching Budgets envelope (Portfolio × FY), recomputes Budgets.AllocatedAmount and RemainingAmount, and emails Finance + Portfolio Manager. Over-allocation is rejected atomically before approval becomes effective or an allocation is created. Initiative now carries an active funding line and moves into delivery.

Review commitments

End of quarter (last business day of Mar / Jun / Sep / Dec), the system prepares a PortfolioReviews record per Portfolio with Status: PacketPrepared and an attached PortfolioReviewPacket PDF (Roadmap + KPI rollup + Budget vs. Spend + Risks heatmap + Strategic Alignment matrix). A separate weekly Monday review flags Portfolios where actual strategic mix has drifted > 10pp from target. PortfolioManager facilitates the meeting with ExecutiveSponsor and the leadership team; outcomes (Greenlit / Paused / Killed / Refunded decisions, RebalanceActions for next quarter) are captured back on the PortfolioReviews row. Killed Initiatives flip Status: Cancelled; refunded Initiatives get a follow-up FundingAllocations request; rebalance actions surface on each Initiative Owner's home page as next-quarter focus.

Strategic Alignment Heatmap

Matrix of Initiatives × StrategicGoals weighted by GoalAlignments. AlignmentWeight, summarized per Portfolio. Highlights Goals with too few aligned Initiatives (under-funded strategy) and Initiatives with low total AlignmentScore (orphan bets that should be re-justified or killed in the next PortfolioReview).

Roadmap Drift

Snapshot-over-snapshot delta on Initiatives.TargetEndDate from RoadmapTimeline rows. Lists Initiatives whose TargetEndDate has slipped > 14 / 30 / 60 days vs. the snapshot from N weeks ago, sliced by Portfolio, Program, and Owner. Surfaces systemic slip patterns.
