WORKSPACE.PM

Most PMOs face a bad choice: a lightweight work-management tool—loved by teams, but structurally unable to show critical paths, capacity bottlenecks, or baseline drift—or a classic enterprise PPM suite requiring a six-figure implementation, long-term consulting, and features hidden behind expensive tiers.

WORKSPACE.PM bridges this gap.

Engineered in Germany, it is a unified project and portfolio management platform covering the entire lifecycle: from the initial idea and demand pipeline, through scheduling, capacity, risk, change, and requirements, to executive portfolio reporting—with one single permission model and an immutable audit trail.

Built for teams facing real complexity:

• Managing 20+ parallel projects reconciled in untrusted spreadsheets
• Taking two weeks to answer whether the organization can absorb a new project
• Traceability demands in regulated sectors (automotive, engineering, public sector, R&D)
• Strict compliance where US-hosted tools fail review with DPOs, works councils, or auditors
• Needing CPM network logic and agile boards because departments work differently
• Frustration with “Enterprise” tiers that triple costs for standard features

Core Capabilities:

• Scheduling: Gantt planning with true Critical Path Method (CPM: forward/backward passes, total float, node networks, loop detection) and live baseline delta comparisons
• Portfolio & Demand: Intake pipeline with custom scoring, bubble charts (risk, cost, NPV), and what-if scenario simulations
• Resources & Capacity: Cross-project utilization, skill profiles, absence tracking, and live availability checks before committing dates
• In-Tool Governance: Risk registers with Monte Carlo simulation, change requests linked to risk rationales, quality gates, and requirement traceability (ASPICE, V-Modell XT)
• Day-to-Day Operations: Kanban and sprint boards, time tracking, meeting minutes with decisions, project wikis, OKRs, and automated doc generation

Three Key Differentiators:

1. No Deployment Gating: Identical feature set across SaaS, managed hosting, and on-premises.
2. Governed AI: Bring Your Own Key (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, local) or managed credits; server-side token budgets per user, an MCP endpoint inheriting strict OAuth user rights, and a global kill switch for full compliance
3. Built-in Compliance: ISO 27001, German data centers, GDPR (no third-country transfers). In-app DPA generation, SSO (SAML/OIDC), SCIM/LDAP, and full REST APIs

Full 30-day trial. Transparent pricing starts at ~€99/month, with per-user fees from €12.80 to €16.80. Real PMO depth without enterprise bloat.
