Model Portfolio Management Guide

Model Portfolio Management Guide

 

The intent of this guide is to provide an organization that is managing a portfolio of models with the terms, tasks, and approaches that could be adopted to create a comprehensive Model Management approach. The organizational response to this guide depends on their organizational and modeling objectives as well as available resources. Implementation of this guide could start with a Model Portfolio Management Plan (MPMP) and may entail institutionalizing registries, repositories, and reports.

Available for free INCOSE Members! 

Available to Non-Members for $15 USD.
