performance of the organisation. There are certain criteria’s that has been evaluated to
understand the portfolio management measures that has been taken into consideration by the
organisation. Furthermore, adequate plan is developed for improving the performance of the
organisation in the long run.
Situational Context and Evaluation:
The introduction of portfolio management into the operations of the organisation will
be welcomed by the management of Origin Energy Ltd, as the company continuously
maintains adequate level of portfolios for securing their expenses. However, the company
does not have any kind of project portfolio management function, which helps in improving
quality of the project that is adopted by the management. The introduction of portfolio
management would mainly allow the management to detect correct valuation of the relevant
projects and the overall resources that would be required for completing the project and
increasing the overall income of the organisation. Operations of Origin Energy Ltd is relevant
high, which will require additional level of projects and larger size for maintaining the level
of operations and profitability for the organisation (Originenergy.com.au, 2019).

and its operations would directly allow the organisation to increase its social equity,
economic efficiency and environmental performance. The improvement of sustainability
criteria would eventually help in determining the appropriate level of financial performance

supporting the programs that implement health, safety, and environmental strategies. The
sustainability measure that has been implemented by the organisation directly includes safety
such as mental health and physical wellbeing. Moreover, the sustainability program adopted
by Origin Energy Ltd has the capability of identifying economically, socially and
environmentally sustainable developments, which could improve their overall functionality
(Originenergy.com.au, 2019).
