Lifecycle Strategy

Johnson Controls is a global leader in smart, sustainable infrastructure solutions. Our Sustainable Infrastructure team oversees long-term capital and lifecycle planning across a diverse portfolio of P3 (Public-Private Partnership) assets in Canada and the U.S. These include healthcare, justice, and critical infrastructure sites where asset renewal, long-range forecasting, and technical excellence are key to operational performance. As we continue to evolve and scale this program, we’re building a stronger planning function to support more proactive decision-making, smarter capital deployment, and alignment with digital and AI-enabled tools.

**What you will do**

As a Lifecycle Strategy & Capital Planning Analyst, you will contribute to long-term capital planning efforts, support annual forecast cycles, and improve the transparency and accuracy of project intake and execution. You’ll be the connective thread between technical teams, finance, and operations - ensuring data integrity, planning logic, and project execution all tie back to the strategic objectives of the program. Your ability to interpret planning inputs, structure fiscal data, and maintain reliable reporting tools will be key to informing leadership decisions and enabling smarter investment strategies across the asset portfolio.

**How you will do it**

Capital & Forecasting Strategy
- Support the development and continuous refinement of multi-year capital renewal plans, based on asset condition data, facility priorities, and program timelines.
- Analyze asset trends and planning assumptions to help inform timing, grouping, or deferral logic.
- Help coordinate forecasting updates with regional operations, project managers, and financial leads.
- Translate technical planning inputs into structured fiscal timelines to support budgeting and portfolio oversight.
- Leverage Excel-based models, PowerBI visualizations, and AI-enabled historical trend tools to improve plan realism and alignment with field realities.

Project Intake & Portfolio Alignment
- Review and structure incoming project requests, ensuring completeness, consistency, and alignment with broader capital planning goals.
- Partner with internal stakeholders to clarify technical details and support decision-making around timing and risk prioritization.
- Track intake volumes and support documentation for planning review cycles and prioritization workflows.
- Monitor early-stage project risks, potential overlaps, and scope ambiguities that could affect delivery success or financial clarity.
- Assist in assessing potential bundling or strategic sequencing opportunities across locations or systems.

Data, Tools & Reporting
- Maintain and continuously improve Excel
- and Smartsheet-based tools for capital tracking, asset-level history, and performance dashboards.
- Support periodic refreshes of datasets tied to lifecycle planning, fiscal tracking, and contract reporting requirements.
- Collaborate with internal developers and the Innovations team on automation and AI integrations that streamline reporting cycles and reduce manual effort.
- Help prepare internal reporting packages for directors, finance controllers, and project stakeholders to support transparency and performance discussions.
- Conduct ad hoc analyses to support operational insights and help shape ongoing program evolution.

Cross-functional Alignment & Process Optimization
- Work closely with Facility Operations, PMO, Procurement, and Finance to ensure capital plans are synchronized with other operational initiatives.
- Support consistency in how project scopes are classified, tracked, and assigned across different teams and platforms.
- Participate in process improvement and documentation efforts to standardize intake, plan validation, and approval workflows.
- Assist in the development of training aids, data entry standards, and reporting guides for internal users across North America.
- Play an active role in identifying duplication, inefficiencies, or data mismatches between systems and helping resolve them with appropriate stakeholders.

**What we look for**
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Finance, Planning, or a related field.
- 1-3 years of experience in capital planning, infrastructure analytics, asset management, or facility operations. Exposure to P3 or long-term asset planning environments is a strong asset.
- Advanced proficiency in Excel is a must - including use of pivot tables, nested logic, scenario modeling, and data cleaning. Experience with Smartsheet and PowerBI preferred. Familiarity with CMMS systems such as QFM, Maximo, or SAP also valuable.
- Comfort working with datasets, interpreting trends, and building structure where ambiguity exists.
- Professional, detail-oriented, and collaborative. Must be able to manage timelines and interface with both technical and business-facing stakeholders.
