Email to prospective Capital Planning Client:
Dear <INSERT NAME>,
JLL’s Consulting group is experienced in enhancing a company’s approach to annual capital planning to
ultimately impact the C-Suite’s ability to make more informed decisions on where to allocate capital
dollars in order to maximize the impact to the businesses.
Without a holistic and structured approach to capital planning, organizations cannot effectively evaluate
allocations to determine those that will generate the most benefit for the organization and, as a result,
they end up wasting scarce funds. Research conducted by JLL on the accuracy of capital planning
execution versus the targeted plan in large corporations worldwide revealed companies frequently fall
short in establishing and adhering to their capital plan. On average, Forbes 1000 companies miss their
capital plan targets for office real estate alone by US$12.2 billion annually.
We have been able to help clients such as JPMC, NCR, and the University of Chicago enhance their
approach to capital planning and as a result they have gained:
1. More reliable capital plan inputs
2. Increased transparency into the planning process
3. A more protective vs. reactive approach to planning, resulting in better informed decision
making around where dollars should be spent to best impact the bottom line.
If you are interested in learning more about our Capital Planning Program, please call me at <INSERT
PHONE NUMBER> for more information. In lieu of your call, I will follow up with you in the next week.
Regards,
<INSERT NAME>
