Its ELEVATE report distinguishes customer‑used Unitization, an In‑Service demonstration and a future PowerPlan IQ capability.
Three stages, not one launch
PowerPlan’s November 2 report says customers are using Intelligent Unitization, while Intelligent In‑Service ran in conference demonstrations. PowerPlan IQ, intended to answer plain‑English questions about tax data, remains planned for Tax Fixed Assets. The report covers ELEVATE on October 25–28; it does not establish that every capability is generally available or newly launched.
What unitization changes
On its product page, PowerPlan describes unitization as allocating capital work‑order costs into fixed‑asset records. Incomplete construction information can stall that process. The AI analyzes work‑order charges, ledger data and project documents, proposing line‑by‑line estimates. Accountants review, adjust and approve each line before it is logged in Project & Asset Accounting. That is a record‑creation workflow, rather than simply asking an assistant a question.
Check review and readiness
The conference release says recommendations include confidence scores and source citations, with teams able to approve, reject or edit. These are review inputs, not accuracy proof. It warns against purchasing based on future product plans: a demonstrated workflow and a promised feature need different readiness checks.
