Why Projectworks for Management Consulting Firms?
With 150 years of consulting under our belts, we get your business. Scale your impact with software that allows you to focus on the work that matters.
Projectworks was born in a consultancy. The founders built and scaled consulting firms before building the platform they wished they'd had. Over 600 professional services firms run on Projectworks, with customers reporting an average of 20% growth in their first year and up to 75% less time spent on invoicing admin.
Management consulting firms worldwide, including Sisima Group, Obelisk Consulting, and hundreds of professional services firms across North America, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
Your Senior Talent Is Your Revenue Engine. You Shouldn't Be Guessing Where It's Deployed.
Most consulting firms don't have a real-time view of utilization until month-end close. By then, bench time has already cost real money, engagements have quietly slipped past budget, and partners are making staffing decisions from memory instead of data. The firms that grow are the ones that see this in real time and act on it.
Real-time Engagement Intelligence for Management Consulting Firms
Projectworks connects time tracking, resource planning, invoicing, and reporting in one live system. Your consulting firm runs on real engagement data, not spreadsheets and month-end surprises.
Turn every tracked hour into billable revenue.
Senior consultants and partners are the revenue engine. Every hour they spend on admin is an hour not billed. Projectworks makes time capture fast and frictionless. One-click entry, automated reminders, and connected data mean timesheets flow into utilization reporting and invoicing automatically.
"I used to spend way too long trying to remember what I worked on, hunting through emails or notes, and then trying to make it all add up. Projectworks just makes that part simple." - Jonathan Borowski, Change Management Consultant, Sisima Group
Get consultants off the bench and into the right engagements.
Bench time is the most visible cost leak in consulting. Projectworks shows in real time who's available, who's finishing up an engagement, and where upcoming gaps are forming. Match consultants to engagements by skill, seniority, and client relationship. Forecast bench time and utilization weeks ahead instead of reacting to it.
"The resourcing heat map is my go-to feature because it lets me instantly spot if someone is burning out or if talent is sitting idle, enabling us to make immediate course corrections." - Tom Bekhit, Founder and Principal Consultant, Obelisk Consulting Firm
Bill clients from real data, not chased timesheets.
Invoicing in Projectworks pulls straight from tracked time and expenses, synced directly to Xero or QuickBooks. No re-keying, no reconciliation spreadsheets, no month-end chaos. Handle T&M, fixed-fee, and retainer billing across your client portfolio from a single system.
WIP visibility by engagement, practice area, and client gives finance a real-time view of unbilled revenue and revenue at risk.
"Projectworks was a game changer…It's solving all of our problems, we use it for project design and quoting through to project management and time writing for everyone, including leave applications." - David Lester, CEO
Report on the metrics that drive your consulting firm's growth.
The metrics that matter for consulting firms (utilization, margin by engagement, book-to-bill, revenue confidence) are all in Projectworks. Partners get a real-time view instead of a month-end surprise. Spot underperforming engagements, unplanned bench time, and revenue gaps while there's still time to course-correct.
"Before Projectworks, it felt like bits of information were scattered everywhere — spreadsheets, emails, someone's head, a whiteboard. Now I can see how projects are tracking, who's busy, who's overloaded, and whether we're actually making money, all without having to dig." - Jonathan Borowski, Change Management Consultant, Sisima Group
Real results from real consulting firms.

Integrations That Connect Your Consulting Firm's Full Engagement Lifecycle
Projectworks integrates with the CRM, accounting, and HR systems consulting firms depend on. From proposal to staffed engagement to tracked time to collected payment, one connected workflow replaces the manual handoffs between HubSpot or Salesforce, Xero or QuickBooks, and the resourcing spreadsheet that lives on someone's desktop.
How Projectworks Helps Consulting Firms Take Control of Engagement Delivery
