Who it is for

Professional services firms that sell time

Ten to a hundred people, a handful of directors, and tools that each hold part of the story.

A mining consultancy

Twenty to forty people: mine planners, geologists, surveyors and rock engineers, working remotely and on client sites every week. Most jobs are short plan updates with weekly client presentations; the rest are two to three month studies with milestones. Their pain is familiar: nobody can see the path from first contact to purchase order, time is captured but cannot be broken down, proposals keep under-estimating the same kinds of work, and nobody knows how much is left on a PO until finance says so.

  • Pipeline from lead to PO with time to PO and win rate
  • Proposal accuracy by type of study
  • PO value, invoiced and remaining per job
  • Who is on which mine this week, and the December crunch in advance

An engineering consultancy

Structural and facade design, drafting and site supervision, with work arriving from main contractors in bursts. Directors need to know which disciplines are overbooked and which jobs are eating their margin.

  • Capacity by discipline after leave
  • Margin by project and by client
  • Late timesheets and unsent invoices flagged weekly

An agency

Websites, platforms and monthly retainers on the same team. The questions are utilisation, retainer drift and which projects ran over.

  • Utilisation per person and per discipline
  • Retainers and projects side by side
  • The Monday report for the partners
