Connect regulatory change to your capital plan—helping teams understand investment impacts, maintain traceable evidence, respond to regulatory requirements, and keep decisions defensible over time.
Your capital plan has to make it through your regulatory process
It doesn’t matter how solid your capital plan is if you can’t get regulatory buy in, and buy-in often slips not on the merits of the plan, but of the defense of it. The challenge is not only building the plan. It is maintaining a clear connection between what is changing in the regulatory environment and the investments, assumptions, and decisions inside it.
IFS Copperleaf Regulatory Intelligence connects regulatory change to your capital plan, helping planning and regulatory teams identify potential impacts, maintain a consistent evidence base, and prepare the supporting information needed to communicate and defend the merit of their plan to their regulators. When requirements change or questions arise, teams can quickly understand what may be affected, review their regulatory narrative, and get to the chain of evidence behind every decision, without starting from a blank page.
From Signal, To Implication, To Narrative.
Keep Every Assumption in One Governed Record
Capture the assumptions behind investment decisions in one structured, version-controlled record. When an assumption changes, teams can see what changed, why it changed, and which investments may be affected.
See Regulatory Changes Before They Affect the Plan
Monitor relevant regulatory developments and identify which investments, assumptions, or decisions they could affect, so teams know where to focus before those changes impact the plan.
Connect Regulatory Change Directly to Investment Impact
Turn a regulatory change into a clear view of what it means for the capital plan. Regulatory Intelligence flags affected investments and helps teams understand where additional evidence, analysis, or action may be needed.
Maintain a Single View Across Multiple Regulatory Processes
Manage regulatory activity across jurisdictions, submissions, and reviews in one place. As new decisions or requirements emerge, Regulatory Intelligence flags affected investments and helps teams maintain a current view of portfolio impact.
Respond to Regulatory Questions Faster
Use the evidence already behind the capital plan to prepare cited first drafts for regulatory information requests. Teams can review, validate, and respond without rebuilding the investment rationale from scratch.
Generate Project Justifications from Plan and Supporting Data
Create first-draft investment justifications using data from Copperleaf alongside relevant external information, giving teams a stronger, evidence-backed starting point for regulatory submissions and reviews.
The Only Purpose-Built Tool To Strengthen Your Regulatory Submission
Reduce Manual Evidence Assembly and Focus Review Where It Matters
Bring together the information needed to support an investment decision without manually searching across documents, systems, and teams. Regulatory Intelligence helps prepare supporting evidence and first drafts so experts can spend more time reviewing the decision itself instead of reconstructing how it was made.
Evidence Grounded in the Information Behind the Investment Decision
Connect justifications and responses to the assumptions, value drivers, and supporting evidence behind the capital plan. Teams can clearly trace why an investment decision was made and provide the evidence behind it when that decision comes under regulatory scrutiny.
Keep Experts in Control
Regulatory Intelligence helps prepare cited, traceable outputs while regulatory, planning, legal, and subject matter experts remain responsible for review and approval. Teams can verify the evidence behind an output before it is used externally.
Expert Support at Every Stage of Your Regulatory Journey
We configure Regulatory Intelligence around your regulatory environment, requirements, processes, evidence standards, and planning context, and connect it to your IFS Copperleaf investment data and relevant supporting information. Have capital plan data outside of IFS Copperleaf? We work with that, too.
IFS Copperleaf specialists work alongside your planning and regulatory teams to review generated justifications, validate supporting evidence, and make sure outputs are ready for regulatory submissions and reviews.
We train the teams involved in the regulatory process on how to use Regulatory Intelligence, review cited outputs, manage assumptions, and maintain clear approval and governance workflows.
When questions, new requirements, or information requests arise, IFS Copperleaf provides support to help teams assess the impact on the plan, prepare supporting evidence, and coordinate responses under tight timelines.
You’re going to have to defend your process. No company has mapped out the next five years in every element of how this is going to go.
