Wrike Integration

  • Updated

Wrike is a cloud-based work management platform that helps teams plan, coordinate, and track tasks and projects.

With OnePlan, organizations can bridge strategic planning with work being managed in Wrike. Initiatives, programs, and projects defined in OnePlan can be aligned with and executed through Wrike, enabling full visibility, strategic alignment, and better portfolio-level control.

Use Cases

The Wrike integration has the following use cases:

Visibility into Execution Across Teams

  • Use Case: Portfolio managers need visibility in OnePlan into project execution tracked in Wrike by operations, IT, or creative teams.
  • Value: Provides leadership a single view of status without requiring teams to switch tools or duplicate updates.

Strategic Initiative Tracking

  • Use Case: Tasks and projects in Wrike are connected to strategic initiatives in OnePlan.
  • Value: Ensures that work aligns to business priorities and allows for better outcome tracking.

Cross-Team Resource Allocation

  • Use Case: Resource assignments in Wrike are synced to OnePlan to assess workloads across projects and teams.
  • Value: Enhances planning accuracy, avoids burnout, and informs staffing decisions across portfolios.

Forecasting Future Resource Needs

  • Use Case: Upcoming Wrike tasks with due dates are used in OnePlan to forecast team and skillset demands.
  • Value: Enables HR and PMOs to proactively manage capacity based on real work pipelines.

Budget vs Actual Tracking

  • Use Case: OnePlan tracks planned vs actual costs for projects executed in Wrike.
  • Value: Provides cost insights for finance teams and supports better budget accountability.

Unified Reporting and Dashboards

  • Use Case: Wrike data is integrated with other work management systems (e.g., Microsoft Planner, Jira, Trello) in OnePlan dashboards.
  • Value: Delivers comprehensive insights across portfolios, regardless of where teams execute work.
