ProModel
Project and Portfolio Solutions developed a simple,
yet powerful, methodology and decision support technology
called VAO (Visualize, Analyze, Optimize). VAO enables project
and portfolio planners to make more informed decisions regarding
project and portfolio management.
The Portfolio VAO solution consists of three elements: industry
expertise, project management methodology, and VAO technology.
VAO technology is built upon proven, powerful, and proprietary
simulation software which models real life environments including
multiple assumptions, data variability, resource conflicts,
and complex interdependencies.
Portfolio VAO solutions range from high level strategic capacity
planning to detailed project planning:

|
Portfolio Simulator is
a full featured, stand-alone application providing
scenario management and simulation technology, so your
organization can visualize, analyze and optimize their
portfolio of projects.
|
 |
|
Project Simulator is
a Microsoft Project add-in specializing in scenario
planning and simulation. Project owners can enhance
their plans with real life variability and develop
the optimal project that meets corporate objectives.

Project Simulator works seamlessly with Portfolio Simulator.
Portfolio Simulator creates portfolios of your optimal, simulation
enhanced projects developed in Project Simulator. This allows
you to simulate multiple projects and shared resources across
the entire organization including inherent sources of variability.
Visualize the
current project portfolio, including all of the assumptions,
variability, interdependencies, and conflicts, which are
intrinsic in a complex project portfolio environment.
Analyze potential
strategies against future scenarios to determine the impact before
committing resources and funding to a particular course of action.
Optimize your project
portfolio decision-making capability for present and future benefit.
The superior outcome of a VAO solution reduces risk, avoids
unintended consequences, and increases the confidence that
your first decision will be your best decision.
