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''' <!--former link-->==
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'''==
The geography of CAPSI plans is local, corridor, state/province, regional/multi-state, national, and continental. Initiatives are cataloged here as they are conceived and advanced by stakeholder groups. You can go to the [[GIS Planning Tools]] page for related information.

* '''What is the distinction between CAPSI and OnTrackNorthAmerica?''' OTNA is the non-profit entity that operates CAPSI. OTNA staff  produce [[Industry Action Plan|Industry Action Plans]] such as VitalRail and companion IntelliConference Series. CAPSI is the strategic thinking community that designs the work. The site that contains progress on the work is called CAPSI.
