Powered by Shibumi, Wrike's new SPM offering aims to close the gap between boardroom strategy and daily project execution.

In Brief

  • Wrike launches a solution linking strategic planning to execution.
  • Offers live portfolio views and dynamic scenario modeling.
  • Enterprise PMO leaders gain data-driven insights to optimize investments and transformation initiatives.

Wrike launched a Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM) solution powered by Shibumi on July 14. The aim is to give enterprises a single platform connecting high-level strategic planning with day-to-day execution.

The product targets a problem the company calls the "Fog of Business," where executives make portfolio decisions against stale data, PMOs spend hours on manual reconciliation and organizations lack reliable ways to measure whether strategic investments are delivering results.

Wrike's argument is that in most enterprises, strategic plans sit in one system and the day-to-day work meant to deliver those plans happens in another. PMO staff spend hours copying numbers between the two, and by the time an executive sees a dashboard, the data is already stale.

What Wrike SPM Promises

Wrike SPM promises three things:

CapabilityDescription
Connected PlanningUnifies financial targets and tactical work with real-time data
Dynamic Scenario ModelingLets leaders compare scenarios before committing resources or shifting priorities
Automated Value RealizationAutomates data collection and forecasting to reduce manual PMO overhead
