Finance and management · CAPEX & Investments

Invest where it pays off, approve with criteria, and prove it delivered

Capital investment stops being decided in conversation. Every project starts with a line-item budget by month, gets a business case that calculates NPV, IRR, payback and ROI on its own, competes for the year's budget in a ranking with a cut-off line, goes through the approval levels and the committee, and has its baseline frozen on approval. During execution, purchase orders and payables are linked without counting the same money twice, the S-curve shows planned against actual, and an overrun blocks new commitments until someone approves a supplement. Once finished, the project becomes an asset in Fixed Assets and, months later, the review shows whether the promised benefit showed up. The money that has not become a project yet is tracked too: investment portfolios with live exchange quotes, average price and gains calculated from the trades, performance compared to the benchmark, rebalancing against the target allocation, and the tax assessment for every sale.

What is available in CAPEX & Investments

Destacado

Every real invested with a calculated and tracked return

The project starts with a line-item budget and a business case that calculates NPV, IRR, payback and ROI. Prioritization draws the budget cut-off line, the committee approves with a frozen baseline, and execution shows committed and actual without counting the same money twice. The money still waiting on the project sits in a portfolio, with exchange quotes refreshed every day and performance compared to the benchmark.

Portfolio, Annual Plans, and Projects

Every investment of the year, each area's budget, and the stage of each project.

  • Annual CAPEX plan with total budget, contingency reserve, and budget by category, cost center, or branch
  • Ready-made investment categories: expansion, maintenance and replacement, technology, efficiency, regulatory and safety, sustainability
  • Projects with a generated code, justification, sponsor, manager, priority, cost center, branch, and planned dates
  • Project budget by item: equipment, construction, installation, software, service, vehicle, or furniture, with quantity, amount, and disbursement period

  • Portfolio dashboard with budget versus estimate by category and a health indicator for each project
  • Timeline for every project showing who did what and when
  • Proposals, supplier quotes, and technical designs kept as attachments on the project itself

Business Case with NPV, IRR, and Payback

Return calculated by the system and explained in plain language.

  • Simple mode: investment, annual benefit, operating cost, life, and residual value, and the cash flow builds itself
  • Detailed mode by annual or monthly period, with incremental revenue, cost savings, operating cost, and other items
  • NPV discounted at the company's minimum attractive rate of return, which can be adjusted per project with a justification
  • IRR calculated with a warning when it does not exist because the project never pays back the investment, and when the cash flow changes sign more than once
  • Simple and discounted payback interpolated within the period, in months
  • ROI and profitability index in the same panel
  • Optional annual benefit growth, income tax, and tax depreciation
  • Pessimistic, base, and optimistic scenarios with factors on investment and benefit
  • Simulator that recalculates while the person types and explains in one sentence what each indicator means
  • Business case versions, with the current one marked and the approved one frozen as the baseline

Prioritization Against the Budget

Which projects fit in the year's money, and why those.

  • Ready-made criteria for strategic alignment, customer impact, risk eliminated, ease of execution, and urgency, with a described 1 to 5 scale
  • Financial score from the profitability index compared with the best project in the plan, and negative NPV scores zero
  • Weighted score by axis with the weights set by the company, and an axis without a score leaves the calculation
  • Projects required by law go above the cutoff, whatever their score
  • Budget cutoff line drawn right on the table, with the remaining balance
  • Simulation of adding or removing projects without saving anything

Approval, Committee, and Gates

Who approves depends on the amount, and the committee votes with a quorum.

  • Authority levels by amount and by category, with an individual approver or a committee
  • Committee with members, chair, and quorum, and votes to approve, reject, or abstain with an opinion
  • The manager and the sponsor do not vote on their own project
  • Submitting requires items with amounts, a current business case when the category requires it, and prioritization scores
  • Gates from idea to close with a checklist and a recorded decision
  • Final approval freezes the approved amount and turns the business case into the baseline
  • Extra budget beyond the tolerance goes through the approval chain for the total amount, not just the increase
  • Approval inbox with the expected chain and the votes already cast

Execution, S-Curve, and Overrun Control

Where the approved money turned into orders, invoices, and payments.

  • Project linked to purchase orders and payables picked from a list of documents not yet assigned to a project
  • Committed and actual never added together: linking the payable of an already linked order deducts that order's committed amount
  • Manual actual entries available and flagged as manual
  • Budget, committed, actual, and available per project and for the portfolio
  • Milestones with weight, planned date, and percent complete, forming the project's physical progress
  • Status report with green, yellow, or red health, next steps, risks, and estimate at completion
  • S-curve of planned cumulative versus actual cumulative, with cost and schedule performance indexes
  • Overruns above the tolerance block new links until extra budget is approved
  • Budget transfers between projects in the same plan, decided by someone other than the requester

Capitalization into Fixed Assets

The finished project becomes an asset with value, useful life, and origin.

  • Only capitalizable items from finished projects are capitalized
  • Value of each item from the actual linked to it, and actual without an item distributed by budget, with the breakdown in the draft
  • Useful life, residual value, and asset category adjustable before sending
  • Sending creates draft assets in Fixed Assets, with the project as origin, for the fixed asset team to confirm
  • Reversal allowed while the asset is still a draft
  • Disbursement series of approved projects published to Financial Planning by explicit action

Post-Investment Review and Alerts

Did the promised benefit show up? The answer with numbers.

  • Realized benefit entered by period as revenue, savings, or avoided cost, with evidence
  • Review with planned versus actual benefit and cost, and revised NPV and IRR
  • Achievement rated as exceeded, achieved, partial, or not achieved
  • Lessons learned and recommendations recorded for future projects
  • Alerts for projects without updates, late milestones, budget overruns, and overdue reviews
  • Daily routine that recalculates derived values and opens alerts without repeating the same warning

Investment Portfolios and Positions

The cash invested while it waits to become a project, with average price and gains calculated for you.

  • Portfolio with a purpose, risk profile, horizon, return target and the benchmark it has to beat
  • Portfolio optionally tied to a capital project, so money set aside has a name on it
  • Contributions, withdrawals, fees and taxes in the portfolio cash account, with buys and sells moving the cash on their own
  • Position per asset with quantity, average price, cost basis, market value and unrealized result
  • Average price calculated in chronological order and rebuilt from scratch whenever an older trade is corrected
  • Unrealized and realized results always kept apart: a promise and actual cash never add up together
  • Weight of each holding, portfolio concentration and a warning when too many eggs sit in one basket
  • Assets of every kind: stocks, real estate funds, ETFs, depositary receipts, funds, bank certificates, government bonds, debentures, crypto, currencies and commodities
  • Fixed income accrued along its own curve, whether fixed rate, a percentage of the interbank rate, inflation plus a spread or the policy rate
  • Papers with a maturity date warn you when the money is coming back to cash

Trades, Shareholder Income and Corporate Actions

Buys, sells and corporate actions recorded once, with everything else calculated.

  • Buy, sell, deposit, redemption, subscription and transfer, with brokerage, fees and withholding tax
  • Brokerage on a purchase goes into the cost basis and on a sale comes off the result, exactly as the tax authority requires
  • Bonus shares, splits, reverse splits and principal repayments handled as events, without messing up the average price
  • Every trade stores the realized gain and the position left after it
  • Correcting an old purchase recalculates the gain on every sale that came after it
  • A sale without enough position is refused, with the available balance in the message
  • Bulk import of the brokerage note, with the reason for each rejected line
  • Dividends, interest on equity, fund distributions, coupons and lending fees entered as a total or per share
  • Income received by month and by payer, with the yield on cost of each position
  • Reinvested income flagged as such, since it never passes through cash

Live Market and Quotes

Exchanges, currencies, crypto and world indices on the same screen as your investments.

  • A universe of more than three hundred instruments: Brazilian stocks, real estate funds, ETFs, depositary receipts, foreign stocks and ETFs, Brazilian ADRs, indices, currencies, crypto assets and interest rates
  • Daily overview with Ibovespa, S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, VIX, dollar, euro, bitcoin and the farm commodities
  • Quoted grid by group, with the biggest gainers and losers of the day
  • Search by name or ticker: typing Petrobras returns PETR4, PETR3 and the ADR abroad
  • One click to register the asset straight from the search, price included
  • Price chart by period, with return, volatility and maximum drawdown calculated
  • Watchlist of assets you do not own yet, showing how much they moved since they joined the list
  • Alerts for price above, price below, daily change and distance from the position average price
  • Quotes stored with their timestamp: the screen always says when the price it shows is from
  • A source that goes down never takes the screen with it: the portfolio keeps the last price, flagged as stale
  • Manual pricing for assets without a public quote, such as a closed-end fund or a membership share

Commodities, Futures and the Forward Curve

Soybeans, corn, cattle and coffee, on the delivery month that matters to you.

  • Grains, softs, meats, metals, energy and currencies quoted by group
  • Dated contract by its market code, such as soybeans for delivery in January 2027
  • Forward curve of the next delivery months, with contango or backwardation spelled out in plain words
  • Conversion to local currency at the day's exchange rate, because grain in cents per bushel does not compare to a domestic price
  • The unit always next to the price, so nobody compares cents per pound with dollars per ton
  • History of both the continuous contract and the dated contract in one place

Performance, Allocation and Rebalancing

Did it beat the benchmark, and what to buy to get back on target.

  • Unit-based performance, which never turns Friday's contribution into Monday's profit
  • The money owner's return, by internal rate with the real date of every contribution
  • Comparison against the interbank rate, policy rate, inflation, Ibovespa, the real estate fund index, savings or the dollar, with the gap in points and as a percentage of the index
  • Volatility, maximum peak-to-trough drawdown and the portfolio Sharpe ratio
  • Target allocation by asset class with minimum and maximum bands, and the targets have to add up to one hundred percent
  • Rebalancing that only suggests what left the band, because chasing half a point just pays brokerage
  • Suggestions in cash and in number of shares, split by the current weight of each holding
  • Monthly close with net worth, contributions, withdrawals, performance and the benchmark for the month
  • Monthly series of the interbank rate, inflation and other indices, used for accrual and for comparison
  • Net worth projection with a monthly contribution and an expected rate

Income Tax on Investments

How much tax the sale generated, and when the payment slip is due.

  • Monthly assessment split by category: ordinary stock trades, day trades, real estate funds, ETFs, depositary receipts, crypto and foreign assets
  • The stock exemption checked against total sales for the month, not against the profit
  • Accumulated losses offsetting gains only inside the same category, with the balance rolling forward
  • Withholding tax reducing the amount due, and whatever is left becoming a credit
  • A payment slip below the legal minimum accumulates instead of being paid
  • Simulation before selling: what is left after tax, already counting what was sold during the month
  • Annual statement with the assessment by category, income received and positions at cost for the assets and rights schedule
  • Reassessment of the month whenever a trade is corrected after the close
  • The screen says in plain words that the system organizes and the accountants file

Permissions and Governance

Who proposes, who approves, who executes, and who configures.

  • Separate permissions to view, create, approve, execute, delete, and configure
  • Checks performed on screen and again on the server, on every call
  • Settings, categories, criteria, and authority levels behind the configuration permission
  • Every link picked from a list: plan, category, cost center, sponsor, order, and payable
  • The investment policy written inside the module itself, next to the tax rates and tolerances
  • A daily routine after the market close that refreshes quotes, revalues portfolios and raises alerts for maturities, drops, allocation drift and unpaid tax
