Architects
Sage Coretime is used by a broad range of Architects across the UK. Our Architect clients are involved in designing buildings, landscapes and environments. Whatever the business specialism, Sage Coretime is equally relevant to their businesses. Sage Coretime has a proven track record in helping Architects to easily manage and control multiple projects. Although easy to use, it is an ideal tool for managing projects which require many different resources, which are complex and long-term in nature.
Project management
RIBA work stages can be applied to projects and new work stages easily added giving clear visibility of progress on your projects at each work stage. Client led variations to project plan can be quickly identified and supporting notes entered against unplanned activities giving you the evidence you need to take to clients to recover your costs.
Financial control
View profitability measures at any project level to help ensure that you remain fully in control of all financial aspects of your projects. Set pro-active email alerts to warn Managers when projects are at risk of exceeding budgets.
Effective costing and forecasting tool
Forecast new projects using a detailed database of valuable financial data on past projects. Fee forecasting can be done using Sage Coretime’s Fee Allocation system and associated reports. Test out various cost scenarios and identify when projects are unlikely to yield a return.
Understanding business opportunity costs.
In Sage Coretime, speculative time can be recorded as a separate business activity so that the real costs of winning new business are clearly visible.
Effective resource planning.
Easy access to complete, accurate, real-time data on staff availability and productivity. For more detailed planning Sage Coretime can link to MS Project.
