Enhanced Productivity with AI Assistance
Leading the Way in Digital Transformation
As a professional consulting company, you solve problems for your clients every day. Whether you’re troubleshooting complex IT issues, offering advice on financial investments or providing custom business solutions for a niche industry, your own business process is one of a kind.
You might think a highly customized software solution is the only way to truly manage such specialized services. But that doesn’t mean you have to pay exorbitant fees for a highly complex system.
What you really need is a fully integrated solution that is flexible enough to adapt to changing needs, yet centralized enough to track the intricacies of your unique business. The combined power of Microsoft’s business applications for consulting companies can provide just the right fit. With Microsoft software solutions for professional services you can:
- Manage finances and operations, keeping tabs on profitability with Microsoft Dynamics 365 ERP
- See what’s in the pipeline, manage resources and track the status of projects with Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM
- Connect and automate processes with Microsoft Power Platform
One source of truth improves profitability
Aggregate data from customers, financials and projects to get better insight into where you are most profitable. Using this data you can:
- Track billable hours
- Better manage financials and job costing
- Know your profit margins by every combination of hours and rates
- Determine profitability by consultant, region or service line
- Deliver on the KPIs you need
Use AI to better plan resource allocation
Choosing which consultant should work on what project requires you to have full insight into projects coming down the pipeline. Which projects require a senior employee, and which ones can a newer consultant tackle? Perhaps you have reps in multiple locations, even across multiple time zones. With Microsoft’s integrated solution and AI-based insights you can:
- Match employee skills with project requirements
- See who’s available and effectively allocate internal resources
- Meet project deadlines with better resource planning
- Simplify time tracking and monitor billable hours
- Develop and retain more profitable client relationships
- Monitor and improve profitability of individual projects
Manage consulting projects from start to finish
Microsoft’s suite of business management apps can help you track a project all the way from its sale through project completion. You can integrate your business process into the system, allowing consultants to check off each step as they go. This gives you real-time insight into the status of each project, letting you know quickly if you’re lagging behind on delivery or creeping up over budget.
