ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for mapping relative strategic intent of tactics and associated projects in an enterprise are provided. Some embodiments provide a computer-implemented tool, a method, and/or a computer-implemented system for mapping strategic intent of an organization. Projects are mapped to tactics and stored in a data store. Fulfillment percentages of tactics are claimed, where the percentages represent the portion of a tactic that is achieved by a project that is mapped to it. Ownership of a tactic may be assigned, which gives the tactic owner authority to grant approval for mapping projects to the owned tactic. Tactic sets, which include groups of tactics having some element in common, may be organized to permit projects to carry over into new time periods. A reporting tool is used to display information such as mapped relationships, ownership, approval status, fulfillment percentage, and tactic sets for use in strategic intent mapping.
