What's New in Rally - 2026 Q1 Roadmap Session

For years, PMOs have been the backbone of governance and portfolio visibility. But the rise of AI has redefined the landscape by automating reporting, predicting delivery risks, and even recommending investment reallocations in real time. 

This session explores how AI is transforming the Project and Portfolio Management Office from a reporting center into a strategic nerve center for enterprise decision-making. 

You’ll learn: 

- How AI is changing the traditional roles and value proposition of the PMO. 
- What “AI in the PMO” looks like in today’s AI-first organizations. 
- How portfolio data, value streams, and execution signals can feed predictive and generative models. 
- Why governance, transparency, and human-in-the-loop oversight remain critical. 
- Specific actions to take to evolve your PMO from reactive to autonomous.

Will AI Replace The PMO?

When work flows through dozens of teams and tools, even the best intentions can turn into chaos. In this session, you’ll see how ConnectALL helps IT, engineering, and transformation leaders put real governance around their software delivery value streams without slowing them down.

We’ll walk through how intelligent orchestration and cross-tool automation can standardize processes, enforce policies, and improve data quality across your ecosystem so you always know what’s happening, who owns it, and what it means for the business.

You’ll learn how to:
Govern value streams end-to-end with a single integration hub
Use workflow automation to eliminate manual handoffs and approval bottlenecks
Improve data integrity for reporting, compliance, and audits
Gain real-time visibility into work, risk, and flow across teams
Create a foundation that’s ready for AI-driven insights and actions

Join us to turn fragmented workflows into governed, predictable delivery.

From Chaos to Control: Value Stream Governance Through Intelligent automation

Reckless velocity leads to fragmented spend. Is your AI portfolio optimized for speed or for true business value?

Join Brian Nathanson, Head of Product for Clarity, and Matt Gorbsky, Head of Product for Rally, as they discuss why "faster" is not a strategy.
