Plan Details
Brings together the projects, assumptions, costs, status, and supporting information that define a planning scenario, giving users one place to understand and manage the plan as a whole.
PROJECTS / FEATURED PLATFORM
Centralized Planning Repository (CPR)
A multi-capability planning, analytics, modeling, and operational platform developed and expanded over time.
THE PLATFORM
A connected home for planning and operational work.
Planning and operational work depended on connected data, models, workflows, and decisions that often existed across separate tools and processes. CPR evolved as a common platform for bringing those capabilities together in a more coherent and usable environment.
A platform, not a single application
CPR is the umbrella for a growing set of planning, analytics, modeling, and operational capabilities. Its story is best told at two levels: the platform that brings work together, and the focused tools that address specific needs within it.
The capabilities below describe what CPR helps people do. The platform features describe the reusable foundations that support those capabilities across the experience.
A platform built to evolve
CPR has grown by identifying a planning or operational need, understanding its data and workflow, and incorporating a focused capability into a shared environment. The individual case studies linked below will explore selected parts of that work without exposing confidential employer information.
WHAT CPR DOES
Capabilities built around the work.
Focused business tools and functional areas within the CPR ecosystem.
Operational Intelligence
Context and visibility supporting planning and analysis.
Node Information
Creates a consolidated operational view of a network node, combining core attributes with planning context, subscriber trends, congestion indicators, and other information used to evaluate need and priority.
Modeling & Forecasting
Reusable models that connect planning scenarios to cost, labor, and material needs.
Cost Modeling
Estimates project and network costs using reusable model logic, while also providing statistical views that help planners understand cost ranges, variation across markets, and key drivers.
Resource Modeling
Translates planned work into expected labor demand, helping connect project volumes and market assumptions to staffing and workload requirements.
Material Forecasting
Converts planned construction activity into forward-looking material demand, providing visibility into expected part usage and timing.
Financial & Decision Support
Financial visibility and information for comparing options and making informed decisions.
Project Financials
Brings together project-level financial activity across key cost categories, helping users understand actual spending, cost composition, and financial progress.
Program Status
Provides visibility into in-flight projects, including delivery status, target dates, and Budget-to-Actuals performance, with project history connected back to the underlying network asset.
Work Management & Collaboration
Tools that help people organize work, share information, document contributions, and collaborate around common goals.
Projects & Tasks
Provides a shared way to organize projects, assign and track tasks, capture progress, and maintain visibility into work that spans people and priorities.
Deck Builder
A web-based presentation workflow that lets contributors assemble, review, and generate PowerPoint decks collaboratively, with controlled internal or public sharing.
Accomplishments & Goals
Lets users record accomplishments over time and connect them to broader goals, creating a living record of contribution that can support reflection, reporting, and year-end review.
Newsletter
Provides a structured way to collect, organize, and share updates across the organization, helping surface progress, accomplishments, and information that might otherwise remain fragmented.
Kudos
Gives users a simple way to recognize one another’s contributions, creating visible peer acknowledgment and reinforcing the people behind the work.
Knowledge & Decision Support
Structured access to business knowledge, platform context, and analytical information.
AskCJ
A home-grown conversational knowledge layer that uses structured domain templates, business lexicons, and proprietary context to help users explore CPR information without depending on an LLM. It can also generate an Analysis Package that carries curated business context into an LLM for deeper analysis.
WHAT MAKES CPR A PLATFORM
Foundations shared across the platform.
Reusable architecture, access patterns, and design elements that support each capability.
Role-based access control
Shared application, role, permission, navigation, and route controls across the platform.
Data-driven navigation
User-specific menus and application access generated from centralized permissions.
Integrated analytical dashboards
Reusable dashboard patterns that combine operational, planning, financial, and model outputs into a single application experience.
Shared application architecture
Common front-end, API, authentication, and Oracle data-layer patterns supporting multiple capabilities.
Database-driven tutorials
A reusable tutorial engine stores guided walkthroughs as structured content, allowing in-application learning experiences to be updated without rebuilding the interface.
Contextual help & documentation
Database-managed help content can be associated with specific pages and workflows, giving users guidance in the context where it is needed.
DATA DOMAINS
Connected information across the work.
The breadth of business and operational data brought into the CPR environment.
Network / asset information
Planning
Projects
Costs / estimation
Project financials / actuals
Labor / resources
Materials
Subscribers / penetration
Congestion / capacity
Workforce / time entry
Employee / labor activity
Vendors / third-party billing
Work management
Goals / accomplishments
Knowledge / documentation
MY ROLE
Built and evolved end to end
CPR has been developed as an individual-contributor-led platform, spanning concept, architecture, data design, application development, implementation, deployment, production support, and continued refinement in close collaboration with the people who use it.
