Visualize Azure DevOps Work Item Relationships with Dependency Maps in Portfolio++® Pro

45 Minute Session

Join us for a practical webinar introducing Dependency Maps in Portfolio++® Pro—the fast, visual way to uncover work item relationships across your entire Azure DevOps environment.

IInstead of digging through nested links or guessing at delivery bottlenecks, Dependency Maps show upstream and downstream connections across teams, projects, and custom work-item types. You get clear, real-time visibility into how work connects—and where it risks getting stuck. This session is designed for CTOs, CIOs, Program Managers, Release Train Engineers, Product Owners, and Agile teams using Azure DevOps who need to spot cross-team blockers early, align schedules, and manage risk proactively.

Led by Chris Johnson, Product Owner of Portfolio++® and Microsoft MVP in DevOps, this demo will show you how to surface hidden critical paths, streamline dependency tracking, and align teams around real-world delivery constraints.

What You'll Learn

  • Visualize Dependency Chains: see a work items's predecessor and successor chains across teams and projects.
  • Spot Bottlenecks Early: identify critical path risks and delivery blockers before they disrupt timelines.
  • Align Stakeholders: use visual maps to improve communication between delivery teams and executive leadership.
