{{DISPLAYTITLE:What Role Can You Play with OTNA?}}
CAPSI and our first [[Industrial System Initiative]] (ISI), VitalRail support stakeholders in making important improvements to specific industries in the name of economic and environmental long-term stability toward a better quality of life.  CAPSI and [[VitalRail Organizers and Facilitators]] work with stakeholders to establish ten crucial goals for an Industry ISI. Then together through conversations and iterative IntelliConference Series, Participating Stakeholders and staff drill down into the detail of those goals to address the challenges and opportunities. This is not only about uncovering great information. The real work is about breakthroughs that create new and better products and services, strategic partnerships, and if need be, mergers and acquisitions so that an industry and can really change.  This page is the starting place for joining us in doing this critical work.
From Visitor to Initiative Leader to Sponsor there are a full range of ways to contribute your perspectives, concerns, and resources.  


One more important item. If all we did was produce great white papers on these changes, that would not be enough. We maintain the CAPSI and [[VitalRail Multilogue]] so that stakeholders can very simply track progress in summaries but stilll drill down into the detail.
