The solution is scalable, secure, and seamlessly integrates into existing IT environments.


Highlights

AI Project Portfolio Management

Engenion transforms project portfolio management by combining structural clarity with the power of artificial intelligence. What sets Engenion apart is its ability to structure and manage entire portfolios based on real-world product and system architectures. This enables precise cross-project analysis of resource demand, capacity bottlenecks, and execution risks – long before they impact delivery. With its built-in AI engine, Engenion continuously analyzes capacity, skills, availability, priorities, and timing conflicts across all projects.

Object Activity Model - structured linkage of products, activities, and skill profiles

At the core of Engenion lies a unique concept: All project data is structured around actual products and components – directly linked to tasks, resources, and costs. Instead of planning projects in isolation, companies using Engenion define and manage them in alignment with the products they’re developing. Every task is tied to a product element, with full traceability of workload, skills, timelines, and budget. This creates a digital mirror of the real development structure – from product to activity to business impact.

Complete Portfolio Transparency – Cost, Structure, and Progress at Every Level

Engenion provides complete transparency across the entire project portfolio, enabling detailed insights into costs, resources, and progress – mapped directly to products, components, processes, and organizational hierarchies. This means you can clearly see where budgets are consumed and where value is created – whether at the level of a product line, a department, or an individual task. With powerful reporting and dashboard capabilities, stakeholders at all levels gain real-time visibility tailored to their needs, from management to controlling to project teams. This level of transparency empowers better decision-making, improves control, and enables early risk detection – ensuring projects are delivered with focus, efficiency, and strategic alignment.

Integration and Single Point of Truth – Seamless Integration into Existing IT Systems and Data Sources

Engenion delivers significant value through seamless integration with key enterprise systems like ERP, PLM, HR, and project tools such as SAP, Jira, or Windchill. By consolidating these data sources, Engenion becomes the single point of truth for all project and portfolio-related information. Budgets, resources, product structures, and progress updates are unified into one consistent, real-time platform. This enables smarter decision-making, eliminates data silos, and ensures full transparency across the entire portfolio – from strategic planning to execution.

Product description

Engenion is an AI-powered solution for planning, executing, and optimizing development portfolios in highly complex, product-oriented environments. It enables organizations to define projects based on real product and system structures, leverage AI for dynamic scenario-based resource planning, and seamlessly integrate into their existing IT and tool landscape, including ERP, PLM, and MES. Core Capabilities - AI-driven Scenario & Resource Planning Engenion delivers intelligent portfolio planning through AI-assisted scenario simulations. It detects bottlenecks, delays, or budget risks early – based on resource availability, qualifications, and project priorities. Users can simulate “what-if” situations and adjust planning instantly. - Structuring Projects Based on Product Architectures Projects are structured according to actual product hierarchies (e.g., System Breakdown Structures). Reusable templates and components standardize execution across business units, product lines, and development teams. Supports organizations working with product platforms, variants, or modular architectures. - Seamless Integration into Existing System Landscapes Engenion connects to ERP (SAP), PLM (Windchill, Teamcenter), PDM, MES, Jira and more. Through open APIs and adapter logic, it enables a bidirectional data exchange with core systems. Ensures data consistency, minimizes system gaps, and reduces redundancy. Key Modules - Project Planning & Administration – hybrid workflows (agile, lean, classic) - Capacity & Resource Management – skill-based allocation - Worktime Tracking – directly booked against tasks - Cost Tracking & Forecasting – real-time variance monitoring - Risk & Status Management – traffic light indicators and escalation workflows - AI Assistant & Analytics – natural language querying and auto-generated reports Benefits for Industrial Organizations - Full control of complex engineering portfolios - Early risk and capacity conflict detection - Portfolio standardization through reusable structures - Deep system integration for seamless workflows - Scalable from small teams to enterprise-wide rollouts
