Dear Business Professional,
Hi, my name is George Huhn, President of Data Machines. The 2009 project management benchmark survey CHAOS report from The Standish Group also showed "44% of projects were "late, over budget, and/or with less than the required features and functions."

"Increased Profits By Tens of Millions"
In a recent article in Operations Research, managers from John Deere and Company describe using Project Portfolio Management to generate a new product line strategy that "has thus far increased profits by tens of millions of dollars."
Most Companies are "Flying Blind"
A study by the META group showed firms are annually losing $1 trillion in underperforming investments because:
- 84% of companies either do not conduct business cases for any of their projects or perform them only on select, key projects
- 89% of companies are flying blind with virtually no metrics in place except for finance
- 84% of companies are unable to adjust and realign their budgets with business needs more than once or twice a year
