Why PMOs are moving now

Delaying the transition introduces technical drift and risks total loss of institutional data.

The deadline is fixed
Microsoft has confirmed 30 September 2026 with no extensions for Project Web App.
Planner isn’t a like-for-like
It coordinates tasks; it doesn’t govern portfolios, level resources, or track enterprise costs.
Governance breaks first
EPT workflows and stage gates stop in April 2026 — long before the platform itself goes dark.
Drift has a cost
Move to the wrong tool and you lose the PMO discipline you spent decades building.

Why enterprise PMOs choose OnePlan

Connect strategy, investment, resources, and execution in one modern PPM environment.

Questions PMO leaders are asking

Most enterprise migrations run in weeks, not days, and the length depends on how much history, custom workflow, and integration you carry. We scope it in the assessment so you know the real timeline before you commit.

We export and validate your Project Web App data before anything is switched over, and reconcile it in OnePlan against your source records. Nothing is decommissioned until you have signed off on the migrated portfolio.

Planner Premium is strong at task and project coordination inside Microsoft 365. It does not provide portfolio-level governance, resource leveling, financial tracking, or stage-gate approvals — the capabilities most PMOs relied on in Project Online.

Yes. Microsoft has confirmed the retirement date with no extensions, and after it Project Web App and its data become inaccessible. Workflow automation already stopped in April 2026, so waiting means running your PMO manually in the meantime.

We translate your existing governance model into the new platform: enterprise fields, gates, approval paths, reporting, and the training that gets people to use it. A licence gives you software; the implementation is what keeps your PMO running.

Yes. OnePlan runs on the Microsoft stack and integrates with Teams, Power BI, and Project for the web, so identity, reporting, and collaboration stay where they are today.
