Francisco -

The majority of projects should support strategic objectives but you will always have a certain percentage of projects which are just to "keep the lights running". For the former, a defined, disciplined portfolio management & project intake approach which governance bodies follow is key.

What size business?

Kiron's not wrong, but it's going to be executed differently across companies, with the size of the business and number of people involved being factors that influence how it gets executed. For example, if I were at a larger company and running SAFe we could use Lean Portfolio Management, while at a smaller company we might go with a steering committee primarily made up of the leadership team and use a less-formal approach.
