11.11. DEMAND
The PPM process as described above, if working well, will paint a picture of the demand. The individual business units will prioritize projects specific to their departments and the governance committee will prioritize those projects that utilize resources from outside of the department where the project originated.
The PMO at a tactical level will facilitate the reporting of all the relevant project data such as business cases, charter documents, cross-project dependencies, resource constraints, and project statuses to the governance committee to help them make informed business decisions.
Figure 11.3 provides a graphical snapshot of the equation between demand and capacity.
