Can you believe we're already well into Q4? The Projectworks team has been hard at work pushing to make this quarter our most impactful yet.

From more flexible project budgeting to enhanced reporting and integrations, here’s what’s new (and what’s coming soon) in the Projectworks platform - your all-in-one PSA software for project intelligence.


Upgraded Project Budgeting and Pricing

Released in mid-September, our new pricing and budget upgrades affect anyone who creates and manages projects, budgets, and time codes in our professional services automation software.

With this upgrade, you can:

  • Save time when building a budget
  • Update your budgets easily as project scope changes
  • Get team members up-to-speed faster

All your existing projects have been automatically migrated. Learn more in our blog summary or check out the in-depth Help Article with interactive demos.

Since launch, we’ve also shipped incremental improvements like more helpful error messages and a new data picker - part of our ongoing commitment to improving your professional services automation experience.


Custom Reporting Enhancements

One of the most powerful features in Projectworks is our reporting engine - and we’ve made it even better.

New Managed Report: Resourced vs Actual Worked

Managed reports are pre-built reports available in Projectworks. We recently added a new managed report to track Resourced vs Actual worked. This is an upgrade to the Legacy report of the same name, but with a few enhancements;

  • New filter to include/exclude Placeholder roles
  • New filter to include/exclude Pencilled hours
  • New columns to see value of resourced hours and the value of worked hours and the delta of the value

Available now under Reports > Reports (New) in your PSA tools dashboard.

Updates to Reporting views for Custom Reporting

We have also added new columns to the Reporting views available in the Custom Reporting engine:

  • Resource Reporting view
    • Hours * Cost
    • Hours * Rate
  • Budget Reporting view
    • Tracking Categories (Xero integrated customers)
  • Expenses Reporting view
    • Billable Amount

Improved Native Integration

QuickBooks Online Invoice Enhancement

You can now sync billing contact emails from Projectworks to QuickBooks Online - eliminating double entry and improving invoicing accuracy. This small improvement streamlines your workflow between PSA and accounting platforms.


Upcoming: Refreshed Projectworks User Interface

The Projectworks user interface (UI) is changing in November 2025.

The changes you’ll see in Projectworks affect visual appearance only - you can be confident that no functionality or workflows will be affected. The refreshed design brings a more intuitive, modern experience aligned with Projectworks’ continued evolution as a leading professional services automation software platform.

AEC firms win around half of the bids they submit, according to the Inspire Report. Competing in this environment is tough. You need to pitch more often just to maintain the same pipeline, and those pitches need to be sharper than ever.
