Portfolios Overview

The Portfolios context in Primavera Cloud provides an environment to develop and monitor portfolios, enabling organizations to strategically and efficiently respond to change. Create portfolios using projects, programs, existing portfolios, or a combination of all three.

Primavera Cloud enables seamless collaboration between project managers, program managers, budget and resource planners, and key stakeholders throughout the entire budget and resource planning processes, including during critical budget and resource negotiation cycles.
