A·IQ Asset & Operations Management | Capital Planning

Forecast capital. From real condition.

Most capital plans are spreadsheets that depreciate assets on a straight line and ignore actual condition. Nexus Capital Planning forecasts replacement, refurbishment, and major-overhaul spend from real condition data and criticality scoring.

02 / Capabilities

What it does.

Four engines that turn asset and condition data into a defensible capital plan.

Condition

Condition scoring.

Equipment condition derived from age, runtime, fault history, and inspection records not invoice age.

Forecast

5-year forecast.

Probabilistic replacement timing per asset, rolled up by site, system, or budget category.

5yr
forecast horizon · per asset
Scenario

Scenario modeling.

Defer this; accelerate that. See the impact on risk, downtime, and total cost across scenarios.

Defense

Audit-ready.

Every recommendation traces to the asset record, condition data, and rule that produced it. Defensible to budget committee or auditor.

03 / In Practice

How a forecast looks.

An AHU at 11 years of age, 80% of nameplate runtime, condition score 0.42, criticality 8, and three failures in 24 months gets flagged as an FY27 replacement candidate with $48k estimated cost. The plan rolls up across 800 assets and tells you which year breaks the budget.

05 / Security

Your data. Your infrastructure.

On-premise by default. Cloud-deployable when required. Your facility data never leaves your network.

TLS everywhere, secrets in vault, row-level security on every query. Containerized and isolated so one service going down never takes the rest with it.

06 / Reference

Common Questions.

Engineer and operator questions on this capability.

01

How does this differ from FCA software?

Most facility-condition-assessment tools rely on age and visual inspection. Nexus also pulls live condition signals (Signal FDD, vibration, runtime, fault history) giving condition scores that update automatically.

02

Can we run multiple scenarios?

Yes. Compare deferral, partial refurbishment, full replacement scenarios side-by-side with risk impact.

03

Where do replacement costs come from?

Catalog of cost models per equipment type, regionally adjusted. Override per asset.

04

Does this integrate with our budget software?

Export to Excel, Adaptive Planning, Workday, or any system that takes CSV/REST.
