# AppO

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/340181/appo

> AppO is a web-based business prioritization application designed to help organizations make complex yet informed decisions and plan strategic outcomes on the basis of predefined criteria. The platform lets teams identify the impact of their decisions on stakeholders.  AppO is predominantly used to select and prioritise project portfolios.

AppO can model all the potential investments in an entire organisation regardless of the complexity of the structure of the organisation such that the value derived from potential investments in any structural unit can be analysed.

AppO can model the criteria used to select investments as an unlimited hierarchy of value measures, which could at the upper level be strategic drivers that are then progressively detailed and succeeding levels to include CSFs, KRAs, KPIs, Balanced Scorecard, and eventually at the lowest levels planned transformation benefits and production statistics such as volumes and process times. Thus AppO can identify when strategic goals will be endangered due to outcomes in individual projects or changes in production. 

Because of its ability to model an unlimited hierarchy of value criteria AppO could be used to develop a universal set of value measures by which all investments will be assessed.

If value measures such as Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) are included in the value measure hierarchy the use of AppO will provide the basis for your claims to ethical behaviour, Since decisions taken using AppO are statistically defendable then the use of ESG value measures can prove your sustainability credentials.

AppO has the ability to analyse potential investments using differing hierarchies of value measures, as would occur where investments are made in differing markets or under differing market conditions, identifying the higher value investments regardless of criteria from an organisational perspective.

AppO can consider an unlimited number of opinions of what constitutes value identifying the relative importance of value measures to each stakeholder or stakeholder group. AppO can then "fuse" opinions to a logical consensus position lies identify where compromise might need to occur if all stakeholders are to support the investments. Thus, individual key stakeholders can be fused into a consensus position and potential investments analysed under the individual opinions and the consensus to identify the impact of each on investment recommendations.

AppO can accommodate multiple assessments of the likely outcomes of each investment and can "fuse" assessments in to a consensus position, again allowing for the potential investments to be analysed under each individual assessment and the consensus to understand the impact of each. AppO can also fuse on "best case" and "worst case" to allow for sensitivity analysis.

If value measures include the cost of each investment AppO can identify spending at any level in the value measure hierarchy and show if the spending is balanced with the importance of the value measure.

AppO can analyse opinions of what constitutes value and assessments of the likely outcomes of each investment to identify potential bias.

## Reviews

### "Working wonders in resources" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *3 March 2022* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Being able to model our full cost/benefit analysis alongside our ESG considerations. Also being able to model our entire corporate structure.
> 
> **Cons**: Visualisation could be mare graphically based but we were able to work with it.
> 
> Working in the resources industry we are often challenged by the complexity of capital investment decisions. Thankfully we found AppO so now our decisions are made simply, regardless of complexity and in a much shorter timeframe that without AppO. We couldn’t recommend AppO more highly.

-----

### "Investing in Multiple Markets" — 5.0/5

> **Gregory** | *1 March 2022* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Comparing investments made in differing markets and under differing business models.
> 
> **Cons**: Currency conversion does not occur on the fly.
> 
> Many companies, like us, operate in multiple markets and multiple countries, which makes it difficult from a corporate perspective to compare investment opportunities across those markets. Finding AppO eliminated the issue entirely, presenting us with detailed comparisons of relative business value for each of the potential investments even though the differing markets required differing approaches to measuring value.

-----

### "Establishing Production Capacity" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *24 February 2022* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to develop multiple strategies and plans and understand the relative value of each plan to the business. You talk about having a plan B, we have plans C and D as well, each potentially triggered at by pre-specified project status conditions.
> 
> **Cons**: Pairwise comparison can be onerous for an executive. We set the upper level priorities at an executive level and our production managers and construction advisers to populate the rest.
> 
> We needed to make a critical decision about creating further production capacity. Were we going to outsource, build from scratch, acquire pre-built and fit-out? When we laid out the basis of the decision we found we had over 100 selection criteria many of which were intangible. AppO made light work of the problem and we were even able to identify a series of fall-back strategies on project options.
