New platform introduces AI-powered Capacity
Insights for seamless capacity management
Tempo Software today announced its newly integrated platform
which unites its award-winning project and portfolio management
(PPM) tools into a flexible, modular platform. The platform also
introduces Capacity Insights for Jira, which harnesses AI for
efficient team planning at scale.
Tempo, best known for its market-leading roadmapping, time
tracking, and Jira-native PPM solutions, embarks on the next step
of its evolution as it makes available new capabilities and
solutions to solve the key alignment challenges facing
organizations today.
"Effective alignment between team managers and senior leadership
is pivotal for organizational harmony," said Mark Lorion, CEO of
Tempo Software. "Traditional portfolio management tools have
historically neglected the vital middle layers of organizations,
offering rigid, top-down solutions that are often cumbersome and
inflexible. Customers require adaptable tools tailored to their
unique operational needs and seek to minimize disruptions to their
daily workflows. With Tempo's established history and experience in
tracking time and capacity, complemented by cutting-edge
developments in artificial intelligence, we're in a unique position
to address this."
After a year of record growth, marked by unprecedented expansion
in its enterprise segment, the Tempo team is thrilled to unveil
their new platform just in time for Team '24, Atlassian's premier
event. This year Tempo is proudly nominated for five Partner of the
Year Awards. The nominations recognize Tempo's work supporting
customers and partners within the Atlassian ecosystem.
Solving capacity challenges with AI
As the authoritative source for planning in more than 30,000
organizations, Tempo’s data and institutional knowledge is
unrivaled. This provides the perfect foundation to solve complex
problems around capacity management, ensuring customers remain on
track, on time, and within budget.
Available in beta today, Capacity Insights leverages AI and
machine learning to enable customers to make faster, more informed
business decisions. For companies using Jira for product
development, Capacity Insights helps teams align their work with
business goals. Unlike other tools, Capacity Insights works right
within Jira and makes it simple to understand what teams are doing
related to specific initiatives. These innovations support Tempo’s
mission to enable flexibility and alignment for businesses of all
sizes.
Forrester survey highlights lack of strategic portfolio
management process
A forthcoming Forrester survey commissioned by Tempo found “72%
of respondents are planning to increase investments in their
portfolio management solutions in the next 24 months,” and noted
strategic management capabilities such as capacity planning are key
to increasing the return on these investments.
The study also showed that less than 30% of respondents have a
repeatable portfolio management process integrated across the
business. The survey, which engaged 528 global decision-makers in
portfolio management, underscores a critical challenge for modern
enterprises.
“The majority of enterprise businesses have an alignment
problem,” says Emmanuel Benoit, CEO of Valiantys. “It’s our job as
a leading Atlassian IT consulting firm to find solutions, and Tempo
fits the bill. “Many of the enterprise portfolio management tools
available today are complex, rigid, or too specialized for broad
adoption. Tempo’s modular approach means we can build solutions
that leadership and teams will actually use, and strategic
alignment is the output.”
The Tempo platform: Modular, flexible, scalable
Tempo’s platform includes solutions for Strategic Portfolio
Management (SPM), Project Portfolio Management (PPM), IT Service
Management (ITSM), and Professional Services Automation (PSA). By
integrating these powerful tools into a unified platform, Tempo
makes it even easier for teams in these areas to get started, and
see the benefits.
The full platform includes:
- Timesheets
- Capacity Insights (beta)
- Structure PPM
- Strategic Roadmaps (formerly Roadmunk)
- Portfolio Manager (formerly LiquidPlanner)
- Financial Manager (formerly Cost Tracker)
- Custom Charts
- Capacity Planner (formerly Planner)
- BI Connectors for Jira (by Alpha Serve, now part of Tempo)
With all its tools supercharging Jira and integrating with many
more, Tempo minimizes user workflow disruption and allows leaders
and their teams to better communicate priorities and stay
aligned.
The Tempo team will celebrate the launch of the new integrated
platform at Atlassian's flagship event – Team ‘24 in Las Vegas.
Tempo’s new offering, Capacity Insights, will be available in beta
from April 30.
