AutoPilot

Planning your projects on a continuous basis will give you an updated prognosis of the project economy, from the start of any project, till the end. Planning is the key to manage your projects.

There are two primary advantages of planning your projects:

Early warnings will enable you to react as early as possible and make the necessary adjustments. Early warnings lets you interfere before the project runs off the tracks. And these warnings and the actions that you take will improve the project economy.

You can plan the project through hour planning or fee distribution. Hours can be planned on RIBA stages, directly on employees or on budget employees, if you are unsure of the specific employee who will carry out the work. Fee can be distributed upon the different work packages to gain an overview of the final project economy.

The planning interface in AutoPilot is completely integrated with all other aspects. This means that once an employee hands in their timesheet on a given project, the hours will be instantly deducted from the planning of that particular project.

AutoPilot offers industry specific invoicing methods. Whether you work with fixed fee (fee schedule or percentage completed) or time charge projects (with or without cap), AutoPilot will meet your needs.

Sending invoices as soon as the right to invoice occurs will improve your liquidity and it will also minimize miscommunication. That is excellent service towards your clients.

AutoPilot recommeneds that project leaders assist the invoicing process by creating invoice proposals. This is because project leaders know each project the best. No proposals are raised or sent, before being approved by management or administration. The extent to which the project leaders takes part in the process is completely up to you.
