Capital portfolio · Confidential owner

A $100M-a-year capital portfolio, turned around

An owner’s annual capital portfolio was spending more than it earned. Executrek put one delivery system across it, and within 9–10 months the portfolio was performing to plan.

The project

The portfolio spent about $100M a year across many projects. A cost performance index of 0.80 meant every dollar was buying 80 cents of progress.

What we did

Executrek put one delivery system across the portfolio: earned value on every project, field-verified progress, weekly forecasts and change control.

How we handled it

Many projects, many contractors and no common measure of progress. Every project was brought onto the same earned-value basis so problems could be compared and fixed project by project.

  • Cost performance index from 0.80 to 1.00
