This can be handled with an established intake process. A few things to consider; does it belong within that specific portfolio, has Enterprise Architecture and if need be, Compliance or Legal, been involved, are there existing capabilities to leverage or a similar initiative, and what is the business justification and value?

The process might vary across companies and industries, but the overall goal is to select projects that support the strategy/objectives of the company.

Assuming the organization has a policy and standards for project investments, then yes, there would usually be a standard intake process to ensure that the appropriate governance body reviews and approves such spend.

The specific criteria used for portfolio component selection will vary based on the company, its strategic objectives, organizational PM maturity and the nature of its portfolios.

That would depend on the organizational project management framework in place, and as my colleagues mentioned here, that will vary across organizations.
