Measure your distress

When is it time to change? How do I know when to start the conversation?

Ask yourself these questions and identify where your challenges are.

  • Are you finding that using multiple software systems and spreadsheets is cumbersome and inefficient?
  • Does it seem like your workflow and processes and multiple points of data entry are slowing you down?
  • Are you having difficulty collecting time from employee time cards?
  • Do you spend extra time making sure your data is accurate?
  • Would you like more control over your project costs?
  • Do you need a better way to track WiP, project deadlines and budgets?
  • Does it take longer than you’d like to bill clients?
  • Are your receivables larger than you’d like?
  • Is it time consuming to get the reports you need?
  • Would you like to know how effective your people are?
  • Is it scary to imagine company growth using your current systems?
  • Do you find yourself wishing for the kind of organizational insight that would help you plan for future business?
  • Do your executives want or require more company intelligence?

If you said yes to any of these questions, then it’s worth a conversation.

With a quick phone call, we can identify if your current level of distress is worth making a change.

ERP for Businesses – Acumatica

ERP for small to mid-size businesses – Microsoft Dynamics 365 

What is an ERP?

Combine operations and finance into one system with intelligence and workflow.

1. Put everything in.

  • Time & expenses
  • Project budgets and change orders
  • Inventory, materials & equipment
  • Client information and invoicing requirements
  • GL and account structures
  • Employees, suppliers & contractors
  • Multiple companies & currencies

2. Achieve productivity and efficiency.

  • Configure the system to automate simple tasks
  • Use workflow and alerts to automate communications and approvals
  • Allow departments to view, add or change only relevant data
  • Everyone is up to date in ‘real-time’
  • Manage and optimize resources and people

3. Create business intelligence and agility

  • Project Managers track and manage project profit margins and control costs
  • Accounting departments invoice quicker and reduce receivables
  • Finance gets a full picture of organizational health and cash flow
  • Executives gain new business intelligence

What to look for: These core functions make all the difference

These functions are some of the features that will set a good project accounting system apart from a mediocre one.

  • Project budgeting
  • Change orders
  • WiP (Work in Progress)
  • Flexible Billing – change rates, hold time, choose when to bill time & expense
  • Flexible revenue recognition
  • Create the reports that matter to you
  • Project allocator – an if/then rules engine that intelligently flows your project costs and revenues into your GL

But wait, there’s more! An ERP can include many more functions…

  • Build to order
  • Build to sell
  • Inventory & Purchasing
  • Resource Planning
  • Service Contract
  • Service Dispatch
  • Contract Management
  • Equipment Management
  • Integrated CRM
  • Manufacturing
  • and more? …possibly.

Just as you are unique, so is each ERP system.

Each ERP system has it’s own strengths and weaknesses, and available modules. To help you navigate this:

  • Be clear on your priorities and then match them against what’s available and configurable.
  • Your final decision should include prioritizing a list of requirements.
  • Ensure that each problem you solve is actually going to add value to your organization in the long run.

Tip: Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that every possible feature will be used or needed. Just because it’s possible in a new system, it doesn’t mean it’s going to improve your processes, increase efficiency or add to your bottom line.

Why move to an ERP?

The Benefits of Integration

Integrating financials and operations into one system gives you more control over your business. You have greater visibility into the entire business, and more accurate data for decision making.

  • Visibility into your whole business
  • Administration becomes more efficient and less costly
  • Improved data accuracy and data reliability
  • ‘Real-time’ insight with immediate reporting

Gain specific benefits of an integrated project accounting system.

  • Receivables: invoice your clients sooner and more accurately
  • Minimize inventory loss: assign, manage and track inventory and materials to projects
  • Reduce time card administration: electronic time card entry and approvals

What does workflow do for you?

  • Send invoices via email, individually or in batches
