Core offering

Tempo provides Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM) software built natively on Jira, offering modular applications for project portfolio management, capacity planning, time tracking, financial management, and custom reporting. The platform connects strategy to delivery across teams and enterprises.

Product overview

Tempo is a modular Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM) platform built natively on Jira, available as individual apps on the Atlassian Marketplace. The core suite includes Structure PPM (portfolio visualization with custom issue hierarchies), Timesheets (AI-powered time tracking with CapEx/OpEx account types), Financial Manager (budget vs. actuals and labor cost calculation), Capacity Planner (team resource management), and Custom Charts (flexible reporting dashboards). Add-on modules extend the platform: Gantt Charts for Structure PPM (timeline visualization), Connector modules for BI tools (Power BI, Tableau, BigQuery, Looker Studio, Oracle Analytics, SAP Analytics Cloud) enabling data export for enterprise analytics, and Idea Manager for Strategic Roadmaps. The platform has expanded through acquisitions: ALM Works (2021), Roadmunk (2021, now Strategic Roadmaps), LiquidPlanner (2023, now Portfolio Manager), and Alpha Serve (2024, BI connector capabilities). Tempo operates as an Atlassian Partner with products distributed through the Atlassian Marketplace.

Direct peers

• Jira Align (Atlassian): Atlassian's own enterprise agile-at-scale and portfolio management solution. Most direct competitive overlap with Tempo's Structure PPM and SPM offerings inside the Jira ecosystem, and represents the most strategic platform-risk competitor given Atlassian controls the underlying platform.
• Smartsheet: Work and project management platform with portfolio/resource management capabilities. Competes with Tempo for enterprise SPM, time tracking, and capacity planning use cases, and is named explicitly in Tempo's competitive comparisons.
• Monday.com: Work operating system with project, resource, and portfolio management capabilities. Competes for project and program-level execution and visibility use cases that overlap with Tempo's Programs and Portfolio Collections.
• Wrike: Project management and collaborative work management platform with portfolio, resource, and reporting capabilities. Targets the same enterprise PMO buyer as Tempo with similar time tracking and PPM positioning.
• Asana: Work management platform with goals, projects, and portfolio-style reporting. Overlaps with Tempo on resource visibility and execution tracking, particularly with teams that need lightweight portfolio reporting.

Broad incumbents

• Planview: Established enterprise PPM and portfolio management suite serving large organizations. Broader and older portfolio offering than Tempo with deeper legacy install base; competes primarily at the high end of the SPM market.
• Planisware: PPM specialist serving large enterprises in aerospace, pharma, and engineering. Competes in PPM/SPM evaluations alongside Tempo, particularly in regulated industries with complex portfolio governance needs.

Others

• ServiceNow SPM: ServiceNow's Strategic Portfolio Management offering bundled with its broader enterprise workflow platform. Competes with Tempo for enterprise governance, financial tracking, and ITSM-aligned portfolio use cases, leveraging a much larger platform footprint.

Emerging players

• Aha!: Product roadmap and strategy platform acquired by Cisco. Comparable to Tempo's Roadmunk/Strategic Roadmaps for product-led planning and roadmap communication; smaller in time tracking and financial management.
• ClickUp: All-in-one work platform with project, time, and reporting capabilities. Emerging competitor in the same comparison set as Tempo, with broader mass-market reach but less enterprise SPM depth.
