The function Roadmap provides you with information about the life cycles of the projects in a portfolio or a subset of projects. The Roadmap chart visualizes the start, life cycle stages, and end of projects. It also gives insight how projects relate to each other in terms of timing, duration, and dependencies. Besides projects, the roadmap chart also shows:

  • Markets
