Methodology & Frameworks

Three-Tier Analysis Approach

Tier 1: Portfolio Health Assessment Uses project_health_dashboard.py to provide comprehensive multi-dimensional scoring:

python3 scripts/project_health_dashboard.py assets/sample_project_data.json

Health Dimensions (Weighted Scoring):

• Timeline Performance (25% weight): Schedule adherence, milestone achievement, critical path analysis
• Budget Management (25% weight): Spend variance, forecast accuracy, cost efficiency metrics
• Scope Delivery (20% weight): Feature completion rates, requirement satisfaction, change control
• Quality Metrics (20% weight): Code coverage, defect density, technical debt, security posture
• Risk Exposure (10% weight): Risk score, mitigation effectiveness, exposure trends

RAG Status Calculation:

• 🟢 Green: Composite score >80, all dimensions >60
• 🟡 Amber: Composite score 60-80, or any dimension 40-60
• 🔴 Red: Composite score <60, or any dimension <40

Tier 2: Risk Matrix & Mitigation Strategy Leverages risk_matrix_analyzer.py for quantitative risk assessment:

python3 scripts/risk_matrix_analyzer.py assets/sample_project_data.json

Risk Quantification Process:

1. Probability Assessment (1-5 scale): Historical data, expert judgment, Monte Carlo inputs
2. Impact Analysis (1-5 scale): Financial, schedule, quality, and strategic impact vectors
3. Category Weighting : Technical (1.2x), Resource (1.1x), Financial (1.4x), Schedule (1.0x)
4. EMV Calculation : Risk Score = (Probability × Impact × Category Weight)

Risk Response Strategies:

• Avoid (>18 score): Eliminate through scope/approach changes
• Mitigate (12-18 score): Reduce probability or impact through active intervention
• Transfer (8-12 score): Insurance, contracts, partnerships
• Accept (<8 score): Monitor with contingency planning

Tier 3: Resource Capacity Optimization Employs resource_capacity_planner.py for portfolio resource analysis:

python3 scripts/resource_capacity_planner.py assets/sample_project_data.json

Capacity Analysis Framework:

• Utilization Optimization : Target 70-85% for sustainable productivity
• Skill Matching : Algorithm-based resource allocation to maximize efficiency
• Bottleneck Identification : Critical path resource constraints across portfolio
• Scenario Planning : What-if analysis for resource reallocation strategies

Advanced Prioritization Models

Weighted Shortest Job First (WSJF) - For Agile Portfolios

WSJF Score = (User Value + Time Criticality + Risk Reduction) ÷ Job Size

Application Context:
- Resource-constrained environments
- Fast-moving competitive landscapes  
- Agile/SAFe methodology adoption
- Clear cost-of-delay quantification available

RICE Framework - For Product Development

RICE Score = (Reach × Impact × Confidence) ÷ Effort

Best for:
- Customer-facing initiatives
- Marketing and growth projects
- When reach metrics are quantifiable
- Data-driven product decisions

ICE Scoring - For Rapid Decision Making

ICE Score = (Impact + Confidence + Ease) ÷ 3

Optimal when:
- Quick prioritization needed
- Brainstorming and ideation phases
- Limited analysis time available
- Cross-functional team alignment required

Decision Tree for Model Selection: Reference: references/portfolio-prioritization-models.md

• Resource Constrained? → WSJF
• Customer Impact Focus? → RICE
• Need Speed? → ICE
• Multiple Stakeholder Groups? → MoSCoW
• Complex Trade-offs? → Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA)

Risk Management Framework

Quantitative Risk Analysis Process: Reference: references/risk-management-framework.md

Step 1: Risk Identification & Classification

• Technical risks: Architecture, integration, performance
• Resource risks: Availability, skills, retention
• Schedule risks: Dependencies, critical path, external factors
• Financial risks: Budget overruns, currency, economic factors
• Business risks: Market changes, competitive pressure, strategic shifts

Step 2: Probability/Impact Assessment Uses three-point estimation for Monte Carlo simulation:

Expected Value = (Optimistic + 4×Most Likely + Pessimistic) ÷ 6
Standard Deviation = (Pessimistic - Optimistic) ÷ 6

Step 3: Expected Monetary Value (EMV) Calculation

EMV = Σ(Probability × Financial Impact) for all risk scenarios

Risk-Adjusted Budget = Base Budget × (1 + Risk Premium)
Risk Premium = Portfolio Risk Score × Risk Tolerance Factor

Step 4: Portfolio Risk Correlation Analysis

Portfolio Risk = √(Σ Individual Risks² + 2Σ Correlation×Risk1×Risk2)

Risk Appetite Framework:

• Conservative : Risk scores 0-8, 25-30% contingency reserves
• Moderate : Risk scores 8-15, 15-20% contingency reserves
• Aggressive : Risk scores 15+, 10-15% contingency reserves

Stakeholder Mapping & Engagement

Power/Interest Grid (Mendelow's Matrix)

Uses stakeholder_mapper.py to classify stakeholders and generate communication plans:

python3 scripts/stakeholder_mapper.py stakeholders.json
python3 scripts/stakeholder_mapper.py --demo --format json

Classification Quadrants (threshold at 5/10):

• Manage Closely (High Power, High Interest): Weekly 1:1s, steering committee, proactive escalation
• Keep Satisfied (High Power, Low Interest): Monthly executive summary, milestone invites
• Keep Informed (Low Power, High Interest): Bi-weekly newsletter, demo invites, dashboards
• Monitor (Low Power, Low Interest): Quarterly updates, organizational newsletter

Blocker Engagement Strategy: The tool identifies stakeholders with attitude: blocker and generates targeted engagement strategies based on their power level — high-power blockers require urgent 1:1 engagement and potential executive sponsor escalation; low-power blockers need transparency and involvement.

Integration with OKR Brainstorming: Stakeholder mapping feeds directly into OKR alignment — high-power/high-interest stakeholders shape strategic objectives, while their feedback validates Key Results. Cross-reference with execution/brainstorm-okrs/ for OKR development workflows.
