Demands - Portfolio Chart: The matrix displays demands based on the computation of the business value, architectural impact, and project risk scores of each demand. Applications that do not have any business value, architectural complexity, and project risk indicators are not evaluated.

Here's how to interpret the information:

• The Y-axis represents the weighted score based on an demand's Business Value indicators.
• The X-axis represents the weighted score based on a demand's Architectural Impact indicators.
• Demands are visualized as bubbles and placed in curved segments representing the business value and architectural impact scores from very low to very high.
• The bubble size indicates the project risk indicator associated with the demand. The larger the bubble, the more risk to the projects associated with the demand.
• The bubble color indicates the importance of the demands specified via the demand's Priority attribute. Pink bubbles represent demands that are mandated and necessary to address a regulatory requirement.
• Point to a demand to show a tooltip with the following information: Demand name, business value ( BV ), architectural impact ( AI ), and Project Risk.

Demands - Business Value: Shows demands based on the definition of the Business Value indicator. Point to a doughnut slice to display a tooltip with the number of demands with that business value. Double-click a doughnut slice to open a data workbench showing all demands with the business value. You can edit a demand's indicators directly in the data workbench.

In the Demands - Business Value view, click a doughnut slice to open a data workbench showing all demands with the respective business value. You can edit the attributes that contribute to the business value score directly in the data workbench. Use the features of the data workbench to slice-and-dice your data to focus on data and do the analyses you are interested in:

• Click Structure and add or remove columns to the data table. Include relevant attributes and indicators to capture important data. A tooltip explains the purpose of each attribute, indicator, and role that you can add.
• Click Visualize to view the data in a different graphic visualization. You can save these visualizations to your content repository and used them in other content area pages.

Any demand that does not have the business value indicators defined is difficult to assess and prioritize.

1. Go to the Demands - Business Value chart.
2. Click the doughnut slice Undefined to open a data workbench showing all demands where the business value indicators are not complete.
3. Specify indicators for the following columns for each demand:
   • Cost Savings Potential: The estimated reduction in expenses if the demand is realized.
   • Market Opportunity: The estimated amount of business opportunities if the demand is realized.
   • Strategic Value: The estimated contribution to the business strategy if the demand is realized.

Demands must be in the repository and well-documented. Demands that do not have the required business value, architecture impact, and project risk scores are not evaluated and thus not included in the portfolio chart. For each demand, the following should be defined:

• Priority attribute
• Cost Savings Potential indicator
• Market Opportunity indicator
• Strategic Value indicator
• Complexity Reduction indicator
• Innovation indicator
• Standard Conformity indicator
• Team Size indicator
• Duration indicator
• Technology Adoption indicator

Go to the Data Quality page and resolve the issues to ensure that the data is complete.

Go to the Data Source page to review the demands that are used to answer the business question. The data source is a list report and cannot be edited.
