How would project portfolio management help to improve the situation at Keflavik?

If you think about it, all business problems are case studies. To effectively evaluate the situation, you must approach the problem in a methodological manner. A proven technique to do this is to

list the facts;
identify the issues;
based on the facts of the case and your knowledge, analyze the issues of the case;
prepare recommended solutions and their possible outcomes;
implement the optimal solution (not always the one with the best outcome, since the cost or other things could be impractical); and
monitor the implementation and the outcomes.
So when you read and prepare to respond to this case, please follow the above guidelines. I don't necessarily expect you to perform steps 4-6, but I do expect your response to be based on the facts and your knowledge.
