Four decisions · One book
Every option carries its P50, P80 and P90 range,
the risks it shares, who signs it, and a record that replays.
Plants, capex rounds, ventures and recovery plans draw on the same money. Capibud allocates across all of them at once, with headroom you set and a reasoned record behind every move.
One envelope, every project, re-balanced continuously. Capibud shows where the next rupee or dollar does the most, how confident you can be in it, and who needs to sign.
Capibud ranks and paces your entire capital programme on one set of scenarios, shows the likely outcome and the bad-year outcome for each decision, and keeps a decision record you can stand behind.
Capibud is the capital committee above your systems of record, for the four decisions that commit capital to physical assets.
Request a Decision SprintWhere capital is committed
Capibud runs schedule, cost, value and shared risk on one set of correlated scenarios, sizes each commitment against the risk appetite you set, and routes it to the person who signs. Nothing changes the plan until a person approves it.
Capibud holds your whole capital programme in one plan: schedule, cost and value, on one shared set of scenarios. It allocates the envelope to the projects that create the most value. It re-balances when something changes and shows the likely outcome next to the bad-year outcome, so commitments are sized to hold either way. Each proposal goes to the person who signs it, with the reasoning attached, and nothing changes the plan until they approve.

Read→Simulate→Size→Approve→Replay
Six capabilities on one plan: allocation that re-solves itself, files read as they are, the systems you already run, a brain that watches the market, projects built from a sentence, and the range behind every number.
The envelope, always at its best.
Capibud solves your whole programme for the highest expected value within the headroom you set. It re-solves whenever a cost, schedule or price moves, then proposes what to bring forward, re-phase or hold, with the value of each move and the confidence behind it.
Reads your files the way your team does.
Schedules, cost sheets, ledgers, registers and status reports arrive in any layout. Capibud classifies columns by meaning and turns narrative into typed facts, and every figure links back to the line it came from. Each correction teaches it your vocabulary, so the next file needs less help.
Sits above the systems you already run.
Capibud works with what Primavera P6, Microsoft Project and your ERP export today (XER, XML, Excel and CSV); native connectors are rolling out. Proposals can notify Slack, Teams or e-mail once you switch those channels on, and they never send without your configuration.
Watches the world so your team doesn't have to.
Price prints, filings, supplier news and progress updates flow in continuously. When something moves, Capibud traces which projects it touches, prices the impact across the portfolio and drafts a re-allocation, then waits for a person.
Describe the project; Capibud builds the model.
Say or type "a 2 GW solar park in Rajasthan, EPC by Q3 2028", and Capibud assembles the schedule, cost lines and value drivers from the matching industry pack. Your team adjusts it in plain language and it joins the plan in minutes.
See the range, not just the number.
Every project and the whole portfolio show the bad year, the likely year and the good year: for value, P10, P50 and P90; for cost, P90 is the bad year. Your committee sees how confident to be before it commits, and whether the plan still holds when several things go wrong together.
Three questions decide whether a capital plan survives the year. Capibud answers all three on the same book, in the same run.
Rank by value for the risk taken, with the P80 doing the talking instead of the P50.
| Option | Decision | P50 value(NPV $M) | Bad-year signal(P80 overrun) | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Polypropylene unit | Evaluate | $412M | 6% | Fund |
| Grid substation | Capex | $96M | 9% | Fund |
| Offshore wind stake | Invest | $58M | 17% | Stage |
| Crude unit revamp | Execute | $21M | 31% | Defer |

Size every commitment in dollars, inside the envelope you actually have.
Stress the whole book and read the chance of breaching your risk appetite before you commit.
Appetite ≤ 5% · Bad-year shortfall (P90 of shortfall): $118M
Every forecast carries the band the committee agreed to. Capibud checks actuals against it every day. When a line leaves the band, it flags the move, traces the projects it touches and drafts the re-allocation, with the value of acting now beside it.
Illustrative example, figures invented. The band is the P10–P90 range agreed at approval.

Decision record
What the committee knew, what it chose and why, stored with the run it relied on. When someone asks why a project was funded, the answer is one click away.

Which plants to build, which assets to back, how to recover projects in construction and which capex lines to fund this year. They draw on the same money and the same risks, so Capibud runs them on one set of scenarios.
P10, P50 and P80 capex, schedule and NPV for each option, and the value of waiting, staging or walking away.
Ticket sizes and reserves inside concentration limits, with strategic value split from the financial return.
P80 cost and finish for every unit, updated from actuals, with recovery options priced before you commit.
A plan for 100+ small projects that fits the envelope, crew capacity and turnaround windows.
You don't have to take a recommendation on faith. Every number traces back to a file, a parameter or a run, and every run replays to the same result.
Every option is priced as a P50, P80 and P90 range for cost, schedule and value, never a single number dressed up as certainty.
One supplier, one EPC crew or the copper price hits every exposed project in the same scenario, so concentration shows up before it bites.
Every candidate from the four decisions is placed on one envelope and one risk appetite, instead of each budget holder funding down their own list.
Alternatives, stress tests and reverse stress tests (the smallest shock that breaks the plan) sit beside every recommended plan.
Changes are previewed, routed by your delegation-of-authority matrix with maker-checker rules, and can be undone.
An append-only, hash-chained log stores each run's inputs, seed and engine version. OCR runs locally, so documents stay on your server.
The replay and its results are shown in a guided walkthrough after sign-in.
Target 80%. Under our own generator; the four adversarial generators are scored too.
Flyvbjerg's database of 16,000+ projects in 136 countries.
Every number links to its source, or says plainly that it is an estimate.
