Portfolio Management
The Run-Grow-Transform Model Heading link
Technology Solutions' Process and Portfolio Management Office uses the RGT model developed by Gartner to support the IT portfolio planning and investment in IT products and services. This Model serves another important purpose in assisting the UIC Chief Information Officer in making decisions in the Resource Management Planning and Resource Capability Management efforts that are required for the development and support of the IT investments. Here's a brief summary to get you up-to-date on what the model means to us
