The new OnePlan MCP Server lets users ask questions about portfolio data and take authorized actions from the AI assistant they already use; Strategic Execution Management evaluates investments by business results, not project activity.

SAN MARCOS, Calif., Nov. 12, 2026 /CNW/ — OnePlan, a global leader in AI-enabled Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM) and enterprise Project Portfolio Management (PPM), today introduced two new capabilities designed to help organizations make faster, better-informed investment decisions and connect strategic priorities to measurable business results. The OnePlan Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server enables users to interact with portfolio data and take authorized actions through familiar AI assistants, including ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot. OnePlan also launched its new Strategic Execution Management (SEM) solution that helps business leaders evaluate whether investments are delivering expected benefits and adjust priorities, funding, and resources as business conditions change. Both are available now as part of OnePlan’s November 2026 release.

Together, the new capabilities address a persistent challenge for enterprises: connecting strategic objectives, investment decisions, and day-to-day execution. Instead of relying solely on dashboards and periodic status reports, organizations can use AI to explore portfolio performance and act on information while maintaining greater visibility into whether their investments are producing the intended business outcomes.

“Companies have spent years investing in systems that tell them whether projects are on schedule and on budget. But those measures don’t necessarily tell executives whether they’re investing in the right things or achieving the results they expected,” said Scott Hebert, CEO of OnePlan. “We’re bringing those decisions closer together. By making portfolio information actionable through AI and connecting investments to measurable business outcomes, we’re helping organizations spend less time navigating systems and more time deciding where to invest, what to change and how to deliver greater value.”

OnePlan MCP Server: Turn AI Insights into Portfolio Action

The OnePlan MCP Server uses the MCP, an open standard for connecting AI assistants to business systems, to bring OnePlan information and actions into Microsoft Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT and other AI assistants. Users can ask questions in conversational language, generate tailored reports and dashboards, build editable interfaces through supported AI experiences, and make updates without navigating multiple application screens.

With the OnePlan MCP Server, users can:

Build reports and interactive experiences: Use AI to create tailored reports, visual dashboards, and editable interfaces to explore portfolio performance, understand trends, and act on insights.Manage the portfolio: Find and explore initiatives, understand portfolio relationships, create and update plans, and move plans through their lifecycle.Optimize resources: Assess capacity, allocations, and availability, compare resource options by availability or cost, and adjust allocations as priorities change, reviewing changes before saving.Manage financial performance: Compare budgets, forecasts, and actuals, identify variances, update values across periods, and shift allocations to reflect changing needs.Understand execution: Explore work plans, tasks, risks, issues, dependencies, and assignments to identify what needs attention.Keep work moving: Review assigned work and post task status updates, so teams have more timely information.Maintain security and governance: Every interaction respects existing OnePlan permissions; users can see and change only what they are authorized to access.

Strategy Execution Management: Measure Benefits and Continuously Optimize Strategic Value

The new Strategy Execution Management solution helps organizations move beyond tracking projects and milestones to understanding whether strategy is delivering its intended business outcomes. Leaders can align initiatives and investments with strategic objectives and OKRs, establish accountability, monitor expected versus realized benefits, and identify gaps in strategic performance. As conditions change, they can evaluate trade-offs, rebalance priorities and resources, and optimize investment decisions to maximize business value. This creates a continuous cycle of strategic alignment, benefits realization, performance review, and adaptation.

With Strategy Execution Management in OnePlan, leaders can:

Align investments with strategic outcomes. Link initiatives to objectives, key results, and expected benefits, alongside their costs and resource requirements, to make investment priorities clear.Measure benefits realization. Monitor progress toward strategic goals, compare expected and actual outcomes, and identify where investments are delivering value or need attention.Optimize investment choices. Use scenario modeling to compare cost, benefits, ROI and capacity implications, assess trade-offs, and redirect funding toward the greatest strategic value.Adapt priorities and capacity. Identify resource constraints, competing demands, and changing conditions early, then rebalance investments and capacity to protect desired outcomes.Connect execution to strategic performance. Bring Agile, Waterfall, Hybrid, and Product delivery into connected dashboards, roadmaps, and performance reporting, giving leaders a current view of progress and business impact.

Also in the November 2026 release:

Expanded portfolio reporting. New reporting capabilities give teams more ways to turn live portfolio information into audience-ready updates, with dedicated status-report pages, visual dashboards across work, financials, and resources, trend reporting, connected-plan context, and exportable charts.Private plans for sensitive strategic planning. Private plans give executives and leadership teams a controlled space to build, model, and analyze sensitive plans before making them visible to the wider organization. Private plans can be turned on by plan type, and plan owners can limit full access to the members of their plan team. Those permissions apply throughout OnePlan, including the Modeler, Resource Plan, dashboards, My Work, Timesheets, and the Home Page.Expanded multilingual support. Native Portuguese support comes to OnePlan, joining existing support for French, German, and Spanish. Portuguese-speaking teams can work in OnePlan with menus, labels, messages, and feature names translated, and translation coverage will continue to expand in future releases.

Full details are available in the November 6, 2026 Release Notes.

QKS Group recognizes Innovid by Mediaocean as an Intelligent Creative & Media Optimization Leader and Most Valuable Pioneer for connecting creative intelligence, media execution, measurement, and agentic advertising workflows.

PUNE, India, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — QKS Group, a global research and advisory firm, has announced the release of its latest report, “Intelligent Creative & Media Optimization for AdTech Platforms, 2026.” The research introduces the QKS AI Maturity Matrix for Intelligent Creative & Media Optimization, evaluating how AdTech platforms are advancing beyond standalone AI capabilities toward connected, adaptive, and increasingly agentic advertising operations. The evaluation recognizes Innovid by Mediaocean as an Intelligent Creative & Media Optimization Leader and the Most Valuable Pioneer (MVP).

As AI adoption accelerates across the advertising ecosystem, the competitive focus is shifting from generative creative capabilities toward the ability to connect creative intelligence, audience insights, media investment, campaign execution, and measurement. The QKS AI Maturity Matrix assesses vendors across two primary dimensions: AI Product Maturity & Orchestration and AI Vision & Roadmap. The evaluation considers four key capability pillars: Creative Intelligence, Connected Media Intelligence, Advertising Orchestration, and Governed & Adaptive Execution. These dimensions help distinguish platforms that offer individual AI-powered features from those capable of connecting intelligence across the advertising lifecycle.

“The rapid expansion of AI across AdTech is changing how advertisers approach creative development, media optimization, and campaign execution. However, the availability of generative AI and automated optimization features alone does not establish broader AI maturity. The real differentiation lies in how effectively platforms connect creative performance, audience intelligence, media decisions, and measurement within a coordinated advertising environment. The QKS AI Maturity Matrix evaluates this transition and identifies the platforms establishing a stronger foundation for intelligent and adaptive advertising operations,” said Richa Choubey, Principal Analyst at QKS Group.

Intelligent Creative & Media Optimization – From Isolated AI to Connected Advertising Intelligence

The QKS report examines the evolution of AdTech from fragmented AI-assisted activities toward connected creative and media intelligence. It highlights how AI is increasingly being applied across creative generation and versioning, predictive creative scoring, audience personalization, campaign activation, cross-channel optimization, and outcome measurement.

Key AI capabilities evaluated in the report include:

AI-powered creative generation, versioning, personalization, and brand governance.Predictive creative intelligence using historical performance, creative similarity, and relevant benchmarks.Audience and contextual intelligence connecting creative relevance with targeting and media decisions.Automated campaign planning, trafficking, quality assurance, reporting, and optimization.Cross-channel intelligence spanning CTV, video, display, social, audio, and other advertising environments.Measurement-led optimization connecting exposure, reach, frequency, and conversion intelligence.Agentic advertising workflows, external integrations, MCP interoperability, and governed execution.

The research recognizes Innovid by Mediaocean as the Most Valuable Pioneer for its approach to connecting creative, media, measurement, and optimization through NIVO. Its architecture brings together specialized AI agents supporting creative generation, predictive scoring, campaign trafficking, quality assurance, decisioning, reporting, and optimization. NIVO Vision further extends this proposition by connecting campaign intelligence with executive insights and operational decision-making.

Innovid’s emphasis on cross-channel measurement, dynamic creative optimization, and interoperability with external advertising environments strengthens its position in the evolving AdTech landscape. Its MCP-based integrations also demonstrate the direction toward connecting internal and external AI agents within governed advertising workflows. The combination of creative intelligence, campaign execution, measurement, and controlled agentic capabilities distinguishes Innovid in the 2026 evaluation.

“Innovid by Mediaocean has advanced from applying AI to individual advertising tasks to connecting creative, media, measurement, and optimization through an increasingly coordinated agentic architecture. NIVO brings specialized AI capabilities into a common operating environment, allowing creative and performance signals to inform campaign decisions while NIVO Action coordinates execution across the advertising lifecycle. Its approach demonstrates how intelligent advertising can move beyond isolated AI features toward continuously connected, outcome-oriented operations, while maintaining interoperability, governance, and human control,” said Richa Choubey, Principal Analyst at QKS Group.

“It’s great to be recognized by QKS for the tangible results we’re delivering our clients and guiding their AI transformation,” said Zvika Netter, Innovid Co-Founder & CEO and Mediaocean President. “To win in a modern media world, marketers need intelligence that can move across platforms, connect decisions, and drive action. That’s what we’re building with NIVO: an open, agentic foundation that helps advertising move faster, work smarter, and ultimately deliver better outcomes.”

The report is designed to guide MarTech and Media & Advertising Leaders, and technology buyers as they navigate their decision through vendor selection by aligning enterprise AI ambition with market capabilities.
