Only if entry is faster than remembering, so that is what we design for. Capture happens from wherever someone already is, with the project pre-filled and a few taps to log. We also make the reporting visible to the team rather than only to partners, because people fill in what they can see the point of.

Professional Services Software & IT Solutions
Proposals, time capture and client portals built so billable work stops leaking into admin.
Proposals out the same day

Client portals that get used
Challenges Professional Firms Face
Slow Proposals
Every proposal rebuilt from scratch, so the good ones are never reused again.
Timesheets by Memory
Hours reconstructed on Friday, which understates the work that was done.
Margin Not Visible
Project profitability only becomes clear once the engagement is finished.
Disconnected Systems
Pipeline, delivery and invoicing systems that never agree on the same figure.
Resourcing Guesswork
No forward view of who is free next month, so work gets promised on optimism.
Unbilled Scope Creep
Extra work absorbed quietly because nobody ever logged it as a change request.
Systems Left Alone
Software still running because replacing it looks like the risk.
Work Done by Hand
Rekeying and chasing that quietly eats most of a week.
Enquiries Missed
Traffic arrives, reads a page for the wrong buyer, leaves.
Split Data
Two systems holding one figure and no agreement which wins.
Compliance Informal
Rules you are audited against, handled by whoever remembers.

What We Build
Featured Professional Services
The systems consultancies and agencies ask for most often, and what each one changes.
A library of approved scopes, rates and case references that assembles into a proposal in minutes and stays consistent with what your firm actually commits to. The version that went out is stored against the engagement, so the delivery team can see what was promised.
Entry that takes seconds from wherever the work happens, with sensible defaults from the project someone is already in. Friday reconstruction is the single biggest source of missing billable hours, and it disappears when logging is faster than remembering.
Stages, owners, deadlines and change requests in one board, so a status meeting confirms what everyone already sees. Work that has stalled surfaces while there is still time to move it rather than in the post mortem.
A signed-in place for clients to see progress, approve deliverables and find documents without asking. Approvals are timestamped and attached to the engagement, which settles most later disagreements about what was signed off and when.
A forward view of who is committed and who is free, built from real assignments rather than a spreadsheet someone updates monthly. It changes the conversation in the sales meeting from optimism to a date you can actually hold.
Invoices raised from captured time and expenses with the narrative already drafted, then routed for the approvals your firm requires. The gap between finishing work and billing it is usually pure working capital, and it shortens immediately.
Margin by project, client and service line, drawn from the same time data people already enter. Most firms discover a service line they assumed was profitable is not, which is uncomfortable and useful in about equal measure.
Every established firm has one process that no off-the-shelf tool expresses, usually the one that makes them different. We build that rather than asking the firm to work the way a product prefers, and connect it to the systems already in place.

Common Questions
Professional Services Questions, Answered
Our team never fills in timesheets. Will this be different?
Can it connect to the accounting package we already use?
In most cases yes. We look at what your package exposes and design the integration around it, so invoices raised from captured time land where your bookkeeper expects them. Where a package has no usable route in, we say so before quoting rather than building something that needs babysitting.
How soon can we see profitability by project?
As soon as time is being captured accurately, which in practice means the first full month after go-live. Before that the numbers exist but understate effort, so we would rather show you nothing than a margin figure built on reconstructed timesheets that would be wrong in a flattering direction.
Why not just buy a professional services product?
Often you should, and we will say so. A product is the right answer when your process is close to the mainstream. Custom earns its cost when the thing that makes your firm different is the thing the product cannot express, or when you would end up running three products and reconciling them by hand.
Will clients use a portal, or just email us anyway?
Some will email anyway, and the design should assume it. The portal earns its place by holding approvals and documents in one findable place, so the value survives even when a client prefers email. We keep the email path open rather than pretending it will not be used.
Do we have to move everything at once?
No, and we would advise against it. We usually start with the piece that leaks the most time, which is normally proposals or time capture, get it live and used, then extend. A staged rollout also gives you real evidence about what the next phase is worth before committing to it.
What happens to our historical project data?
We map what is worth bringing across and archive the rest in a readable form. Historical time data is usually worth migrating because it makes the first margin reports meaningful immediately, while old pipeline records rarely justify the cleanup effort. We agree that split with you rather than assuming.
What support is there once it is live?
A support arrangement covering fixes, updates and small changes, with larger work quoted separately. Services firms change how they bill and reorganise teams more often than most, so we expect the system to keep moving rather than treating every change as a new project.
