Renewables FP&A Blueprint

Capital project planning for a renewables developer, end to end

See how a renewables developer can plan, forecast and control a portfolio of projects in construction: stage-gate authority, monthly forecasts with reason codes, budget vs. actual, CWIP and capitalized G&A, consolidation and the ERP mapping behind it. It's a working demo built on Meridian Ridge Renewables, a fictional developer with eight projects, and it includes a guided walkthrough of about 20 minutes.

Capital projects dashboard

Where do the projects stand against budget and authority?

  • Portfolio status and spend beyond authority
  • Project cost curves and overage cases, with drill-down to invoices and POs
  • Pipeline, operations and version compare
  • CWIP and G&A capitalization

Planning workspace

Who enters what, when, and how is it approved?

  • Process map for the annual, monthly and event-driven cycles
  • Project manager tasks, plan entry and forecast updates with reason codes
  • FP&A review and approval

Dimensions & ERP mapping

How does the plan connect to the books?

  • Eight planning dimensions, from version and entity to project and cost code
  • Mapping to Oracle, SAP and NetSuite segments
  • Monthly feed of GL actuals, open POs and accruals

Built for CFOs, FP&A leaders and project controls teams at renewables developers and independent power producers who are moving capital planning off spreadsheets or selecting a planning platform.

Meridian Ridge Renewables is a fictional company and all figures are illustrative.
