assess and disposition the portfolio. Prepares ARC-010-LAB1.
Draft outline details
Step by step
- List applications: web shop, store POS integration, order management in ERP, CRM, reporting.
- Gather evidence per application: support status, incidents, change backlog, users, cost.
- Score value, condition, risk, and cost to change; plot on the quadrant.
- Assign dispositions and order them by dependency and value.
- Planned mistake: scoring is done from opinions in one meeting; the ERP is marked "replace" because everyone dislikes it. Fix: use the evidence sheet and reassess; ERP moves to retain-and-wrap.
- Review with role-played owners and record disagreement.
Check your understanding
