Planview Introduces Agent Resource Management to Transform Portfolio Governance in the AI Era

Planview

Planview debuts a new agent resource management capability, giving enterprises a single place to plan, govern, and optimize human and agentic AI resources.

Planview has announced the launch of its new Agent Resource Management capability, marking a significant evolution in portfolio and resource management for enterprises navigating the rise of AI-driven operations. The latest innovation enables organizations to centrally plan, govern, and optimize both human talent and AI agents within a unified system, enhancing visibility and accountability across strategic initiatives.

As enterprises increasingly adopt agentic AI, managing a hybrid workforce has become a complex challenge. Industry projections highlight this shift, with analysts forecasting that AI agents will be embedded in a substantial portion of enterprise applications by 2026, reflecting rapid adoption and growing strategic importance.

Addressing this transformation, Planview’s new capability extends traditional resource management models to include AI agents alongside human resources. This approach provides leaders with a comprehensive view of workforce allocation, cost structures, and performance outcomes ensuring that every decision aligns with organizational priorities.

“Agentic AI has reshaped how businesses get work done. Enterprises now run blended human and agent workforces, but most leaders lack insight into whether those resources are allocated to the right work and who is accountable when something goes wrong,” said Matt Zilli, CEO, Planview. “Planview is giving leaders the control they need to run a blended workforce with confidence and to answer the questions that every executive team is asking: what is agentic AI actually costing us  and is it delivering the outcomes we need?”

Unified Visibility and Control for Hybrid Workforces

The Agent Resource Management solution introduces a centralized framework that integrates AI agents into existing portfolio structures. By presenting human and AI resources side-by-side, organizations gain clarity into capacity planning, cost attribution, and resource utilization before making critical investment decisions.

Key capabilities include enhanced visibility into resource costs covering compute usage and token consumption alongside advanced planning tools that allow enterprises to model different workforce scenarios. This enables leaders to forecast ROI, identify risks, and evaluate optimal combinations of human and AI contributions.

The platform also strengthens governance by embedding policy controls directly into workflows. Organizations can define authority levels, budget thresholds, and escalation paths for AI agents at the time of assignment, ensuring that all actions remain aligned with enterprise policies. Continuous audit trails further enhance transparency by tracking agent activities, human approvals, and compliance events in real time.

Purpose-Built AI Agents for Portfolio Execution

Planview’s offering includes a suite of purpose-built AI agents designed to address critical operational bottlenecks in portfolio delivery. These agents are not experimental tools but fully governed, assignable resources integrated into enterprise workflows.

Among the capabilities introduced are project management agents that automate status reporting and identify blockers, backlog agents that enhance task readiness through automated assessments, and forecasting agents that provide predictive insights based on historical performance and delivery metrics. These functionalities empower organizations to shift from reactive management to proactive, data-driven decision-making.

“Planview has managed enterprise resource capacity longer and at a greater scale than any other portfolio management vendor,” said Louise Allen, Planview Chief Product Officer. “That experience  how resources are actually allocated, how blended workforces operate in practice, how agent capacity should be governed defines our agent resource management. No horizontal AI platform offers this combination of resource management history, portfolio context, and enterprise trust.”

Driving the Future of Portfolio Management

With the introduction of Agent Resource Management, Planview reinforces its position as a leader in strategic portfolio management and digital product delivery. The solution reflects a broader industry shift toward integrating AI into core business operations, where visibility, governance, and accountability are critical to success.

By enabling organizations to manage hybrid workforces with precision, Planview is helping enterprises transition from traditional resource planning to a more dynamic, AI-augmented operating model. This evolution not only improves efficiency but also ensures that AI investments deliver measurable business outcomes.

The new capability is expected to be available within the Planview platform in Fall 2026, with early access opportunities offered to select customers.
