Problem

Managing contractors shouldn't require five spreadsheets.

Contractor reporting becomes messy when activity, approvals, costs, billing rates and monthly reports live in different files and inboxes. Teams spend too much time collecting data and not enough time understanding what the data means.

Problem

Spreadsheet chasing

  • Contractor service days tracked manually
  • Contractor activity arrives in different formats
  • Approvals chased manually
  • Finance rebuilds reports every month
  • Costs and margins are difficult to calculate
  • No single source of truth exists
Solution

One workflow from activity to margin

  • Contractor submits service days
  • Contractor activity is captured in one place
  • Manager approves activity
  • Finance reviews costs and utilization
  • Cost and margin visibility is available before reporting
  • Monthly reports are generated without rebuilding spreadsheets
