value delivery system

An integrated set of strategic, organization-wide activities designed to establish, sustain, and advance the enterprise and its ability to deliver value.

Key Points

  • Connects strategy to execution across portfolios, programs, projects, products, and operations.
  • Aims to build, maintain, and improve the organization's capacity to create value for stakeholders.
  • Uses governance, prioritization, and resource allocation to focus efforts on desired outcomes.
  • Depends on feedback loops and continuous learning to adapt and optimize performance.

Example

A software company aligns its strategy to expand into new markets with a prioritized portfolio of initiatives. Programs coordinate multiple projects to deliver new features, operations teams ensure reliable releases, and customer feedback informs the backlog. Governance reviews investment performance quarterly, adjusting funding and scope so initiatives continue to advance strategic goals.
