# CFO and PMO Decision Journey

Use Capital Intelligence to understand the current cost position, identify material exposure and compare the latest approved cost picture with prior snapshots.

### Your outcome

Leave the review with clear answers to four questions:

1. Where are we against budget?
2. What is driving the final-cost variance?
3. Which project levels or suppliers require attention?
4. What changed since the selected closed snapshot?
