Why is making investment decisions a challenge?
Every day, companies around the world are spending billions on the infrastructure we all rely on—the electricity that powers our communities, the water that keeps us healthy, and the transportation infrastructure that moves us. These decisions must balance a wide range of considerations, from safety and reliability, to climate resilience, to environmental and social responsibility. Should you spend your limited funds and resources on the sustainment of your current asset base or invest in other areas to help your business grow and prepare for the future? The answer is both. But what’s the right balance? Which projects are urgent and need immediate attention versus those that are important but can be tackled at a later date?
If your organization is struggling with any of the following challenges, Copperleaf® can help.
No quantitative link between spending and strategic objectives, including ESG targets
No way to evaluate financial and non-financial benefits on equal footing
Too much time spent entering data and “number crunching”
Intuition and internal politics influence project selection decisions
Inconsistent processes to select investments; inability to defend portfolio decisions
Inability to respond quickly to the unexpected, e.g. emergent work, regulatory requirements

Centralized, intelligent environment for decision-making
Many organizations are making multi-million dollar decisions based on Excel spreadsheets, standalone tools, or personal qualitative opinions, which can lead to errors, uncertainty, and suboptimal plans and business outcomes.
Copperleaf’s suite of enterprise software solutions enable a holistic end-to-end planning process that connects “bottom-up” asset analytics with “top-down” strategic planning at the portfolio level.
Copperleaf Value Framework
The goal of any organization is to achieve its strategy quickly and cost-effectively. The Copperleaf Value Framework makes it possible to assess the value of every investment consistently—and make decisions that drive the strategic priorities of your organization. Any number of value measures can be added, including financial and non-financial benefits, risks, KPIs, ESG factors, and more, so that even the most dissimilar investments can be compared on a common economic scale.
AI-powered optimization
Delivering the highest value means doing the right projects at the right time. This is no easy task for organizations that deal with hundreds of potential investment options, with multiple alternatives and start dates to consider.
Copperleaf’s AI-powered optimization can evaluate the vast number of possibilities and identify the optimal plan within minutes. Sensitivity analysis can easily be performed to explore the impact of different funding, timing, and resource constraints on value and risk, and build a realistic, deliverable plan to achieve your strategic goals.
