==== '''Introduction''' ====
You have entered the work side of CAPSI. CAPSI is both a strategic thinking community and a set of methods and functionality designed to support and speed collaboration. Once you register as a Stakeholder or a Professional Stakeholder on the [[Participation Options]] page you can join with the Team to strategize on designing new Industry Action Plans (IAP) or work directly on our first initiative, [[VitalRail: A Comprehensive Growth Plan for Rail-Enabled Industrial Productivity/VitalRail Stakeholders|VitalRail]].

This Is Where The Work Begins!

Introduction

You have entered the interactive space of Industry Action Plans. When you register as a Participating Stakeholder you are joining the work to design new Industry Action Plans (IAP). Our first Industry Action Plan is VitalRail.

The Work Which industrial systems do we want Industry Action Plans to address?

These are the industries where we see the pressing need for progress and have already gotten a jump start on the work. Do you want to suggest and/or even co-lead CAPSI's work in other industries? Although, our initial focus is on rail's contribution to industrial productivity, CAPSI is designed to improve all industries that can benefit from collaborative progress.

Design What design criteria do we want to set for CAPSI?

Staff Organizers, Facilitators and Participating Stakeholders use IntelliConferences and IntelliSynthesis to uncover breakthrough information on goals and make decisions about next steps. If you would like to help us improve our methods and processes or learn more, and are not yet a registered visitor or registered stakeholder, please visit the the Participation Options.

If you are already registered you can use the Discussion Tab on this page to make your comments on the following questions. Staff will follow-up with you ASAP.

  • What do stakeholders want to add to the CAPSI Ethics and Principles?
  • How do you think stakeholders should address CAPSI and Industry Action Plan goals?
  • What Planning Protocols do stakeholders agree on?
  • What Outcomes do stakeholders envision?
  • What outcomes do we want for the environment?
  • What outcomes do we want for citizens?
  • What outcomes do we want for business?
  • What outcomes do we want for investors?
  • What resources does society need and want to optimize?
  • What goods does society need and want to have available?
  • What Measures of progress do stakeholders want to apply?

Public-Private Planning

Providing your input to these questions will be very valuable to all participants. You can answer questions anonymously by sending staff an email. See the Participation Options page.

  • How do we want planning to support sustainable industrial systems?
  • What benefits do stakeholders want Collaborative Industrial Optimization to deliver?
  • How do we want public-sector economic development to contribute to sustainable industrial systems?
  • How do we want private-sector commercial activity to align with sustainable industrial systems?
  • How do we want land use decisions to contribute to sustainable industrial systems?
  • How do we want transportation planning to evolve to support sustainable industrial systems?
  • How can academic and commercial research support sustainable industrial systems?
  • What factors do we want to include in assessing the full impact of industrial systems?
  • How must interactions among public and private sector entities evolve to support systemwide sustainability?

Capital Deployment

As we address these broader questions we drill down into more detailed questions.

  • How do we want capital deployment to support sustainable industrial systems?
  • How do we want investors’ decisions on capital deployment to evolve?
  • How do we want business stakeholders’ approach to capital deployment to evolve?
  • How do we want lenders’ approach to capital deployment to evolve?
  • How do we want public agencies’ approach to capital deployment to evolve?
  • What advantages will Sustainable Systems Capitalization deliver?

Geographic Planning Regions
