This week's Application Developer Management e-newsletter explores the key elements in project prioritization. Have does your organization prioritize projects when planning for the new year? How do you get the entire organization to work together on this prioritization effort? What's your team's role in the prioritization process?

Note from the editor: We received the following feedback from member Peter Grant.

We have included a standard set of criteria that each business case is rated against. These business cases are evaluated by our governance body (the Information Technology Committee) that is made up of our COO and the Directors of each of our business areas.

It's up to the ITC (with guidance from IT, especially on infrastructure projects) to prioritize the projects. This has certainly generated quite a bit of discussion between divisions. We were doing this each quarter,
since new parachute projects come up that take priority and sometimes others drop off the radar screen. Also, if a project is taking longer than
planned, it means other priorities slip, so we need confirmation that we should be continuing those efforts from the group as a whole.
