7. Compare and
contrast the advantages
and disadvantages of
different manual and
electronic project,
program and portfolio
(PPPM) application
systems within each
PPPM knowledge area
over the life cycle of a
project, program or
portfolio.
From this module, I learned that the business success at this current time
depends significantly on whether the organisation uses manual or electronic
systems. Even one or two decades ago, most of the business organisations
utilised the maximum benefits of manually operated systems but at the same
time, the issues and problems associated with the manual systems also arose.
With the implementation of electronic systems most of these issues have been
resolved but some other major issues also arose. However, I understood that
the electronic system is the future and not manual system and hence,
continuous research must be conducted to mitigate the issues and risks
associated with the electronic systems and gain maximum benefits from the
same. Some of the main advantages of electronic system over manual system
include faster operations, lesser costs and online data storage and maintenance
system.
