With the spring breeze comes the Spring ’26 release of HP Workforce Experience Platform, delivering a fresh set of capabilities designed to help IT teams move faster, see more clearly, and simplify everyday operations.

Shaped directly by customer feedback, this release introduces custom alerts that reduce noise and surface the right issues at the right time, along with a custom data collector that puts near real-time, flexible reporting in your control. We’re expanding how teams support hybrid work with broader access to Remote Connect, enabling both OS-level troubleshooting and BIOS-level recovery from anywhere. To further accelerate resolution, Remediation with AI helps teams identify the best next action faster, while still preserving control and transparency.

This release also strengthens extensibility and ecosystems with new Developer Portal APIs, deeper security alignment through Wolf Security Controller integration, and streamlined collaboration device and space management via Poly Lens integration—helping teams start the season with smarter tools and renewed momentum.

    The platform’s modular design allows for tailored customization and scalability to meet specific business needs. Presently, WXP integrates capabilities for fleet management (formerly HP Proactive Insights) and employee engagement, facilitating direct communication between IT and employees, and targeted feedback collection via device pop-ups and self-help capabilities. Planned optional, add-on modules will include additional devices for fleet management, endpoint security, and Digital Workspaces powered by HP Anyware, all supported by enterprise-level support. Additionally, there are add-on options for hardware, managed services, and print software.

  • How is WXP modular?

    WXP is designed to be modular, allowing organizations to tailor the solution to their specific needs, including Fleet Management, Employee Engagement, Digital Workspaces, and Endpoint Security.

    The modular design allows companies to select the capabilities needed to achieve business goals. New capabilities can be added to an existing portal as their business needs change and expand. Initially, WXP comes with fleet management and employee engagement, with the ability to add-on endpoint security, digital workplaces, and/or HP support services for an additional fee.
