Portfolio Review Committee

EDDC is guided by a Portfolio Review Committee (PRC) that advises on EDDC’s portfolio projects and platforms. The PRC reports to EDDC’s Governing Board, and evaluates EDDC’s project milestones, timelines and deliverables. The PRC also provides recommendations for selecting, managing and funding our portfolio of projects.
