Abstract
The pre-project or ideation phase is often

disregarded in project portfolio management.

Senior managers put more emphasis

on later project stages, and researchers predominantly

investigate the front end from a

single project perspective. This study investigates

how and under which circumstances

the performance of the front end affects

project portfolio success. Using a sample

of 175 firms, we confirm a strong positive

relationship between front-end success and

project portfolio success. Results show that

this effect becomes stronger for larger project

portfolios, for portfolios with more interdependency

between projects and, finally,

for firms that have a strategic orientation

toward riskiness.
