Profitability is hard to manage if the first accurate view appears after the project is already invoiced.
Capture the work while it is fresh
Record billable time by client, project, task, and person so the billing source of truth is created during delivery, not reconstructed at month end.
Review before anything reaches the client
Approve entries, expenses, and budget movement in one place so managers can catch missing context before finance creates the invoice.
Turn approved time into billing evidence
Use the same tracked data for invoices, client summaries, margin reviews, and internal capacity conversations.
