Budget Position
Know how much has been approved, spent and remains - by project, category and cost code.
Is the project on plan, and funded through completion?
Development Budget & Capital Stack Intelligence™ connects the development budget, actual costs, commitments, capital stack and forecast to show the funding position - and where management needs to act.
Know where the budget stands. See where costs are going. Know whether the project is fully funded to the finish.

Funding Position & Decision
The Problem
Financial control is about where you are heading, and whether you are funded to get there.
Development financial control is not just about tracking what has already been spent. It is about understanding what has been committed, where the project is likely to finish, and whether the capital stack funds it through completion.
Are we still within budget, and how much remains?
What have we committed but not yet paid?
What will the project ultimately cost at completion?
Is the capital stack sufficient to fund it to the finish?
Is there a funding gap, or a need for additional equity or debt?
What requires management intervention now?
The Intelligence Layer
Valtrics sits above your financial data.
Your accounting system remains the system of record. Valtrics is the intelligence layer that turns budget and cost data into forward-looking management decisions.

What You See
Seven views into project financial performance and funding.
Commitment Exposure
See costs already committed through purchase orders and contracts but not yet reflected in actual spend.
Forecast at Completion
Understand where the project is likely to finish - actuals plus commitments plus forecast remaining.
Variance Intelligence
Identify where financial performance is moving away from plan - what changed, why, and what it may mean.
Funding Position
See capital funded, capital available and any funding gap or surplus - including additional equity or debt required to complete.
Cost & Financial Risk
Surface emerging risks - overrun, cost acceleration, thin contingency, funding pressure - before they become material.
Management Actions
Turn financial information into a prioritised list of what should happen next.
The Decision Layer
From tracking costs to managing outcomes.
