Five years ago, "can IT build this?" was a one-answer question. In 2026, for a PM running an enterprise cplace implementation, the answer is at least six options long:  🔹 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐠𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, when the cplace model already supports the request.  🔹 A 𝐰𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭 or a 𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭, for fast iteration on contained logic.  🔹 A proper 𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧, when the capability needs to scale and survive upgrades.  🔹 A 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 cplace, when performance or independence demand it. 🔹 Waiting for the 𝐜𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝𝐦𝐚𝐩, when the need is not yet urgent. 🔹 Redirecting to a 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞, or doing without entirely. AI is now making most of these paths faster and cheaper to execute, which means more of them get chosen. Each path carries a very different cost across the next five years. The PMs who handle this well are the ones who treat every request as a decision with long-term consequences, rather than as a ticket waiting to be picked up. That is exactly where we at demicon, as specialist cplace partners, do our best work. 👇 More on the pattern below and connect with Maren Meyer for more information. #demicon #cplace #ppm #projectdelivery #programmanagement
