The portfolio, programme funnel flow problem: or how do you spend a million pounds?

I wonder if this is a problem for your programme? Many projects are proposed for the programme, but less than expected make it through the feasibility and authorisation process, so you've always insufficient projects in the programme to meet the targets you have for service/asset improvement, and the forecasted spend you made!Consequently your programme got off to a slow start, and compromises on project selection later on, as the need for more projects intensifies.
