CAPEX control app: requisitions and cost centers

A CAPEX control app organizes investment requisitions by cost center and tracks what was spent against what was planned. Platforms like Jestor bring a ready-made CAPEX template that connects requisitions, suppliers, and execution, instead of investment spreadsheets that lose sync with reality.

Why CAPEX needs its own control

Investment isn't an everyday expense: it has a tier, a cost center, and long-term tracking. Treating it in the same spreadsheet as daily bills muddles the budget.

Without a cost-center view, no one knows how much is already committed. The budget overruns because each area sees only its own part, never the whole.

A dedicated app separates CAPEX, shows the budget by area, and tracks each requisition from approval to execution. Planned and actual sit side by side, with no surprise at closing.
