About PowerPlan

For 30 years, PowerPlan has helped leading North American asset intensive companies make the right financial decisions.

PowerPlan began with a simple realization: The more fixed assets an organization has, the more challenging it is to manage them financially and to strategically understand how compliance requirements impact the treatment of each asset. Our founders saw ERPs and EAMs alone didn’t capture enough data to optimize decisions, so they built the first software platform that combined granular financial and operational asset data from every corner of the organization; filling the gaps ERPs and EAMs could not provide.
