Apptimized portal supports the One-To-One-Integration model (i.e., 1 Apptimized project can be integrated into 1 Client App on the Microsoft Intune).
The option to upload the package to Microsoft Intune is available under the Project menu > Dashboards > Portfolio > Select an application > Actions column > Push to Intune option.
