Managing a capital portfolio of 700 active projects across multiple plants and divisions becomes increasingly complex when each department relies on its own spreadsheets and tracking methods. For International Paper, this fragmented approach made it difficult to maintain a consistent view of project status, approvals, FEL documentation, and capital priorities across the organization—leading to delays, rework, and significant effort to reconcile information across groups.  

In this session, International Paper will share how it transitioned from spreadsheet-based capital planning to a unified platform using Prometheus solutions. By consolidating project planning, approvals, and forecasting into a single system, the organization improved transparency, alignment, and visibility across engineering, finance, procurement, and operations.  

The presentation will highlight the implementation approach, including a focus on leveraging standard platform capabilities and enabling functional teams to manage configuration as processes evolve without relying on development resources.  

Attendees will gain insight into how a user-friendly, unified capital management platform can streamline project governance, improve forecasting accuracy, and scale to support large, complex capital portfolios.
