Description
BigTime is a leading professional services automation (PSA) software designed to streamline project management, time tracking, and financial operations for professional services firms. It integrates various aspects of project lifecycle management, from quoting to cash flow, ensuring that firms can operate efficiently and profitably.
The platform offers a finance-first delivery approach, allowing users to track budget versus actuals in real-time, sync work-in-progress accounting directly to the general ledger, and generate one-click invoices from project data. This results in faster month-end closes and more revenue captured before invoices are issued.
BigTime's utilization control feature provides visibility into every billable hour and explains bench hours, helping firms optimize resource allocation. The AI-powered resourcing agent matches staff to projects based on skills and capacity, enhancing project margins and utilization rates.
The software also includes a margin-informed quote builder, which uses live rate cards to ensure profitability from the first draft to the final statement of work. Approved quotes can be converted into live projects with a single click, maintaining budget, scope, and staffing integrity.
BigTime is modular, allowing firms to start with essential features and expand as needed. It integrates natively with QuickBooks, both Desktop and Online, and supports other tools like Salesforce, Sage Intacct, and Jira. The platform's AI capabilities, including AVA, the AI co-pilot, provide personalized guidance and automate back-office processes.
Pricing for BigTime starts at $20 per user per month for the Essentials plan, which includes core features like time and expense management, project portfolio management, and invoicing. Advanced and Premier plans offer additional capabilities for scaling organizations and firms with international clients.
BigTime is trusted by over 3,000 professional services firms and is known for its ease of implementation, with most firms going live within weeks. The software is particularly beneficial for industries such as consulting, engineering, IT services, and architecture, providing them with the tools to manage complex projects and improve financial outcomes.
