Rubik Solutions delivers proven solutions and consulting in the areas of strategic decision making, IT governance, demand management, PMO and portfolio management. Among the forerunners of providing real-life management solutions for the early phases of technology lifecycle Rubik can generate substantial added value to its customers.

The added value can be further multiplied by applying these strong management solutions to eg. R&D and business development domains within the organization. Furthermore, the Rubik PPM added to the range of other Rubik management solutions such as ITSM and ITAM enable a true end-to-end control of the technology lifecycle.

Four key domains of Rubik PPM solutions 

1. Demand consolidation. For many organizations, understanding all of the demand being placed on IT is the essential first step in prioritizing the IT workload and determining the relative business value of various alternatives.
2. Portfolio management. You can’t calibrate the business value of an individual project if you can’t see the big picture. A focus on portfolio management allows you to govern the entire IT portfolio and make apples-to-apples comparisons.
3. Project execution. Delivering complex programs and projects on time and on udget is a major challenge for any organization. Focusing on project execution allows you to see which projects are in trouble at any given time and make decisions about how to get them back on track.
4. Resource management. For some organizations, the top priority is the ability to analyze and compare skill sets, levels of proficiency, availability and projected resource utilization while staffing projects as well as during the initial proposal evaluation process.

As our technology platform for PPM solutions we have used the industry leading HP PPM (previously Mercury IT Governance Center) since 2004. Have a look at the data sheets to get more information.
