N2 - In this paper, we present a research conducted on implementing product portfolio management (PPM) processes in software organizations. Based on interviews and literature study, we developed an implementation model intended for software companies aiming to implement PPM processes that span the entire organizational portfolio. The model presents a step by step implementation of the product portfolio management process and also takes into account related subjects. In addition, we present a maturity matrix that shows 28 capabilities that should be realized during this implementation. The implementation model has been evaluated using expert interviews and in a case study in a large Dutch software company. © 2011 IEEE.
