Planview IdeaPlace is an innovation management software solution that helps organizations run structured, time-bound challenges to capture, evaluate, and prioritize ideas from employees, partners, or external audiences. It applies natural language processing, crowd-based ranking, and expert review to narrow large volumes of ideas down to those with the highest implementation potential. IdeaPlace connects selected ideas directly into Planview Portfolios, Planview AdaptiveWork, or Planview ProjectPlace for funding, resourcing, and execution, rather than functioning as a standalone idea collection tool. It is designed for innovation leaders running enterprise innovation programs who need a governed, repeatable process in place of ad hoc idea collection through email, spreadsheets, or one-off events. Main capabilities include: • Challenge management, including challenge templates, configurable idea capture forms, and TeamTap, which lets users create and run challenges without administrator access • Idea evaluation tools such as pairwise ranking, crowd predictions, and expert review, along with NLP-based idea consolidation that removes duplicate submissions and narrows large idea pools • Innovation analytics through embedded Power BI dashboards that track idea progress, cost to impact, speed to market, and employee engagement, with OData connectivity to Tableau, Excel, and other BI tools • Program engagement features, including gamification such as badges, points, and reputation scores, social activity tools, and personalized user experiences based on skills and interests • Native integrations, including Idea to Portfolio, Idea to Project, and Idea to Delivery Teams, that move selected ideas directly into Planview Portfolios, AdaptiveWork, and ProjectPlace without manual re-entry Each challenge in IdeaPlace follows a defined lifecycle, from soft launch through ideation, expert review, pairwise ranking, and selection, with defined roles for administrators, challenge sponsors, moderators, experts, and participants.
