"Planforge is our next step in making hybrid PPM more accessible and powerful at the same time," said Gerald Aquila, founder and CEO of ONEPOINT. "By implementing best practices and lessons learned from hundreds of customer projects analyzed by leading PPM consultants, our software has distinctive built-in project management expertise that is unique in the market."
Dynamic Project Closure
Built around an always accessible project closure form, the new dynamic project closure process is the cornerstone of many practical enhancements to the new Planforge platform:
- 1–5-star ratings and comments for overall project success, each objective and KPI
- Post-project phase can be easily planned using to-dos
- Lessons learned can be added at any time
- Redesigned project closure PDF standard report is based on new capabilities
Lessons Learned
Besides playing an essential role in the new project closure process, lessons learned are real lightweight business objects that are fully reportable using Planforge's flexible report wizard.
"This is a major first step to preserving important project know-how and providing transparency and important learnings to all project stakeholders. Learning from past mistakes and applying successes to future projects is becoming a key success factor," stated Dieter Freismuth, CTO of ONEPOINT.
Modernized Change Requests
Another success factor is effective change request management. By completely redesigning the way change requests are entered and displayed in Planforge, ONEPOINT has managed to incorporate latest best practices while simplifying the user interface. ONEPOINT made change requests more dynamic by allowing project managers to delegate ownership and prioritize changes. Additionally, the Planforge platform now includes a built-in, customizable standard report for a change request.
RACI
Other enhancements include support for RACI, enabling project managers to improve their overview of team responsibilities for complex projects and programs.
Availability
Planforge is available for free for up to 4 users both as a cloud service and on-premises. ONEPOINT also provides different plans for extended connectivity, including a bidirectional integration to Atlassian's Jira. Sign up now at www.planforge.io.

Mindbreeze InSpire Reduces Token Maxxing, Turning Runaway AI Costs Into Predictable Enterprise Value28.7.2026 16:03:00 EEST | Press release
Mindbreeze, a leading global provider of AI-based knowledge management solutions, today announced that Mindbreeze InSpire reduces token maxxing, the costly overconsumption of large language model (LLM) tokens that is straining enterprise AI budgets. By retrieving only the most relevant, grounded content and passing it to LLMs with precision, Mindbreeze InSpire lowers the tokens required per answer while improving accuracy, giving enterprises a path to scalable AI with predictable economics. Token maxxing has become one of the most underestimated risks in enterprise AI. As organizations connect generative AI to their data, many default to injecting large volumes of undifferentiated context into every prompt, repeatedly, across thousands of queries. Industry analysis has warned that tokens are becoming the true unit of AI cost, with usage-driven and nonlinear spending that is difficult to forecast and quick to erode margins. The problem is rarely the model. It is what the model is asked
Uptime Institute 16 th Annual 2026 Global Data Center Survey: Deployment of High Density Racks Rising Fast, Operators Face Continued Recruiting and Retention Pressures28.7.2026 16:02:00 EEST | Press release
Uptime Institute today released the findings of its 16th Annual Global Data Center Survey, the most comprehensive study of the digital infrastructure sector. The 2026 results reveal an industry navigating workforce constraints, escalating outage expenses, even as rising costs remain the top concern for management teams. Financial Pressure and Resource Constraints Intensify: While high costs continue to be a primary concern for data center leaders, the 2026 survey also highlights escalating concerns over capacity forecasting, power availability, and supply chain disruptions. Power efficiency gains remain gradual. The industry saw minor improvements in average Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) levels this year. While newer facilities may boast highly efficient designs, overall global progress is slowed by legacy infrastructure.
