Most value creation plans die in a drawer. Yours won’t.

Why it works.

Your VCP is useless unless it gets executed.

Strategy is cheap. Follow-through is where the money gets made, and Arcpoint is built to drive follow-through.

BUILD THE PLAN

See a clear path from today to the outcome you want.

Each value creation priority ties to a lever on the bridge, in dollars, so the plan and the model finally agree.

CREATE OWNERSHIP

Every leader knows what they own.

Each initiative has one owner and a target. Nobody has to dig through a 70-slide deck to find their part, and nothing falls through the cracks.

TALK TO THE PLAN

Ask your plan a question. Get a straight answer.

The Planner knows your value creation plan. Ask what's at risk, the impact it can have, and how to get things back on track. Get the answer in plain English.

What's off track this week?
THE PLANNER
3 of 8 objectives need attention. Two matter most. Go live on the ERP is off track: Dev moved cutover 3 weeks, which pushes the freight savings into Q1. Win 3 grocery chains is at risk: 1 of 3 signed, 2 in final terms.

We build it with you.

We help you build the plan, and make it come true. 

Software alone won't get your team clear and aligned on the VCP. We work with your leadership team and board to build the value creation plan in facilitated sessions, then launch it in Arcpoint and help you run it.

How it works.

1

See how we build the plan →
2

We load your priorities, owners, targets and bridge, and get every leader is onboarded to the platform.

3

Run it every week

Owners update, the team reviews, the sponsor follows along, and the plan gets updated each quarter.

What's inside.

Everything the VCP needs, and nothing it doesn't.

Arcpoint sits next to your portfolio monitoring tool and tracks what that tool can't: the plan that's supposed to move the financials.

One-page plan

Your value creation plan should be able to fit onto a single sheet of 8.5" x 11" paper. So simple and clear that everyone can understand it.

Weekly updates and review

Update the status of key initiatives each week, and make this the centerpiece of your weekly management meeting so things stay on-track.

Value bridge and critical numbers

Tie everything on the VCP to the EV bridge. This ensures that the initiatives and metrics ladder up to the priorities that will actually move equity value.

Board pack

A board-ready summary of your value creation plan, pulled from the live plan and ready the week of the meeting.

The Planner

Ask a question in plain English and get the answer from your own plan.

Sponsor view

Read-only access for the deal team and board observers. This gives them visibility into the plan real-time so they're not left wondering.

Role-based access and two-factor sign-in on every account.

Get moving.

Your next board meeting can be a lot more boring.
