Project portfolio management for engineering leaders
In special machine manufacturing
Bring predictability back to multi-project engineering.
Understand how parallel projects compete for the same experts and decide early which trade-offs protect overall delivery.

When engineering changes, pressure spreads across the entire portfolio
An engineering change rarely affects just one project. Effort shifts in one place and quietly distorts:
Shared mechanical, electrical, and software capacity
Parallel project schedules
Downstream delivery commitments
You see the change. But you don’t yet know:
Which projects will be affected next?
Which decision actually protects overall delivery?
That’s where rework and firefighting begin.
THE REAL PROBLEM
Engineering slows down when decisions come too late
Changes are unavoidable. Their impact isn’t visible early enough
Customer-specific machines require late adjustments.
Without early impact visibility, changes trigger downstream rework and delays.
Without early impact visibility, changes trigger downstream rework and delays.
Shared resources create hidden bottlenecks
The same senior engineers are needed across multiple projects.
Without a portfolio view, priorities shift daily and focus is lost.
Without a portfolio view, priorities shift daily and focus is lost.
Engineering time is consumed by coordination, not value creation
Senior engineers align plans, resolve conflicts, and escalate issues.
Less time is spent designing and building machines.

THE SOLUTION
Understand engineering impact before rework starts
Allex supports Heads of Engineering exactly where execution becomes complex:
Live project and portfolio status
Dependencies across engineering disciplines
Shared engineering capacity and constraints
Early indicators for emerging bottlenecks
When execution changes, Allex shows the true portfolio-level impact immediately so you can evaluate options before damage spreads.
Transform your workday
What Allex replaces in your workday
Constant coordination across projects
Clear visibility into real bottlenecks
Reactive firefighting
More predictable engineering flow
Late prioritization discussions
Early, fact-based trade-offs
Manual plan updates by engineers
Continuously aligned portfolio view
Result: Less rework, fewer escalations, more focused engineering work.
Why Allex is different
With Allex, engineering teams can:
1
See how a change in one project affects engineering capacity across all others
2
Identify bottlenecks before they slow multiple projects
3
Compare delivery outcomes before reallocating scarce expertise
4
Make early, deliberate trade-offs instead of reactive corrections
How AI supports you
AI that reduces manual effort, not engineering responsibility
AI in Allex supports engineering leadership by:
Continuously re-sequences work recommendations across projects as priorities shift
Identifies emerging bottlenecks in shared engineering resources
Surfaces the trade-offs that actually matter before delays spread
Keeps plans and priorities up to date without constant manual maintenance
Result: You stay in control with better information, earlier.
WHY SWITCH
Why existing tools fall short
You already have tools. They just don't work well in multi-project, resource-constrained realities.
Planning Tools
Work until reality changes.
Don’t show how project changes affect shared engineering capacity.
ERP systems
Record what already happened.
By the time issues appear there, engineering capacity is already overloaded.
Spreadsheets & reports
Explain problems after the fact.
Don’t show trade-offs or reduce multitasking across projects.
Operates where engineering actually struggles most:
when multiple projects compete for the same people and difficult decisions must be made.
"Capacity planning in Allex provides us with a transparent and meaningful basis for short- and medium-term decisions in multi-project management."
