Strategy, funding, capacity and delivery are often managed in different tools, making it difficult to see the full picture when decisions need to be made. Completix connects them in one place, so your PMO can answer the questions that matter without spending days assembling the data.
Connect projects and investment decisions to strategic priorities, so leadership can see where the budget is going and whether it supports what matters most.
See strategic alignmentEvaluate requests against consistent criteria, with structured intake and governance that gives your organization a clear record of what was approved, deferred or rejected, and why.
See intake and governanceSee the people, budget and delivery capacity required before new work is approved, so commitments are made with a realistic view of what the organization can deliver.
See capacity planningSee portfolio-wide budget, schedule, risk and delivery issues in one place, so your PMO can identify projects that need attention before problems become expensive to fix.
See the Warning CenterWhat surprised us most was how much easier it became to spot projects that needed attention. We used to find these issues when preparing our monthly reports.

Every initiative carries its objective, its approval history and its resource demand with it, so the answer is already there when leadership asks.
Set the objectives your organization is funding this year, then connect the projects and portfolios delivering against them. When priorities shift, you can see exactly what is affected.
Standardize how initiatives enter the portfolio, evaluate them against your criteria, and move them through the governance process. Every decision has the right approvals, documentation and accountability behind it.
See resource capacity, budget, forecast and actuals together across the portfolio. Model different choices before committing the organization to work it cannot staff or afford.
This request's score and budget route it to the Executive Committee under policy, not the portfolio board.
Configurable thresholds continuously monitor portfolio performance and surface exceptions the moment something moves outside your tolerance. It works less like a report and more like a portfolio control system, showing your PMO where attention is needed before the next reporting cycle arrives.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| At Risk | Data Platform Migration | Project Budget Forecast | +1% of approved budget | $1.24M | $1.18M | Forecast 5% over approved budget |
| Off Track | ERP Rollout | Project Scheduled End | >2% of planned end date | Nov 12, 2026 | Aug 30, 2026 | Scheduled end over 74 days late |
| At Risk | Biotech Onboarding | RAID Task Due | Overdue tasks | 6 tasks | 0 | 6 tasks past their due date |
| At Risk | Marketing Launch | Milestone Due | Milestone slip | Oct 03, 2026 | Sep 20, 2026 | Milestone 13 days behind baseline |
Budget forecast, schedule slip, milestone dates, overdue RAID items. You set the tolerance, Completix watches it.
See which projects are firing, which trigger fires most, and where the risk is concentrated.
Warnings surface ahead of the reporting cycle, so a forecast breach becomes a decision rather than an explanation.
