Quantifying the Benefits of Investment Portfolio Optimisation versus Prioritisation for Asset-Intensive Organisations

We often get asked ‘can you quantify the benefits of optimisation?’ or ‘how much better is optimisation than the prioritisation process I currently run in Excel?’.

With this in mind, Copperleaf sponsored a MSc. research project led by Ibrahim Tamimi and supervised by Dr. Patrick Beullens with the Centre for Operational Research, Management Science and Information Science of the University of Southampton in the UK. The objective was to quantify the benefits of investment portfolio optimisation versus prioritisation for asset-intensive organisations.
