Project controls and financial governance for capital-intensive programs

One costbook for budget, forecast, change, and portfolio — especially where ERP is the financial source of truth.

Used on multi-project life-science and industrial capex programs · SAP-ready reconciliation · Audit-ready approvals

Capex projects are complex. Controlling them shouldn't be.

Many organizations lack end-to-end transparency – even when the data is already there.

  • Budget overruns

    Variances are often spotted late – when corrective action is already expensive.

  • Change approved, forecast wrong

    A change is approved — the forecast still does not update. Impact never lands in the costbook.

  • Manual Excel processes

    Time-consuming consolidation, high error rates, and limited traceability.

  • Missing portfolio view

    Individual projects are visible – the impact on investment budget, caps, and cash flow is not.

  • ERP ≠ project costbook

    ERP import does not match the project costbook — controllers rebuild the truth in shadow Excel.

  • SOV billed, EAC unclear

    SOV billed, retainage held, EAC unclear — or change evidence controllers cannot defend.

The solution

CapCon — one control layer for capital programmes.

Instead of scattered spreadsheets and isolated project reports, CapCon brings costs, commitments, change impacts, and portfolio metrics together in one reliable system — from project costbook to enterprise consolidation.

Product

From costbook through change to portfolio overview

CapCon connects operational project controls with portfolio governance — without month-end Excel consolidation.

  • Cost structure, commitments, and defensible estimate at completion.

  • Program metrics, early variance warnings, and prioritized actions.

  • Scoring, category breakdown, and top risks linked to portfolio steering.

Capabilities

The toolkit for reliable capex control

Core project controls every day — plus ERP reconciliation and vendor billing where your deployment requires them.

  • Central costbook & defensible forecasts

    Budget, forecast, commitments, and actuals with clear explanations — one financial foundation instead of parallel spreadsheets.

  • Change management

    Change orders, approvals, and forecast impact — fully documented from request to portfolio view.

  • Portfolio intelligence

    Metrics across all projects, risk drivers, and currency effects for PMO and steering committees.

  • Schedule & cost

    Schedule and costbook working together — plan vs. actual, commitments, and financial metrics in one view.

  • Workflows & audit

    Configurable approvals, compliance context, and a complete audit trail for regulated environments.

  • SAP / ERP reconciliation

    Import actuals and commitments, compare ERP vs. costbook — reduce parallel workbooks in steering.

  • Vendor / GC portal

    SOV progress and billing submissions where enabled — complementing field tools, not replacing CLM.

Trust

Finally a system where costbook, change, and portfolio work as one — without month-end Excel consolidation.
