Abstract
This paper presents a model of the health of the IS applications portfolio and illustrates how it can be assessed through a case example in process manufacturing. The health of the portfolio is defined as a value judgement by a senior manager of a business unit's set of systems. The value judgement is based on five important attributes of the IS applications portfolio: system importance, investment, technical quality, use and management value.
