Live Performance Tracking
CMAP tracks live timesheet, personal expenses and purchase invoice data to drive real-time Budget vs. Actual reports.
You can than then easily identify poor performing projects and take action (adjust resourcing, negotiate additional fees etc.) before it's too late.
The Story So Far feature allows you to compare actuals to your percentage complete and predict the recovery rate.
Over time, CMAP's report suite helps you to understand where your projects are profitable - or not - and gives you the tools to learn, adapt and scale.
Resourcing Made Simple
CMAP's Workload Schedule tool enables you to make quick changes with a simple drag and drop.
You can resource right there within the tool, rather than going into the project itself, and make changes to the allocation or extending the time frame.
It's further supported by CMAP's skills and attributes tools, helping you to find the right people in your resource pool.
Plus, CMAP's resourcing reports make sure you have an accurate view of current and future demand, and whether you have the capacity to deliver it.
Fast, Accurate Fee Estimates
Take the guesswork out of job costing with CMAP's Fee Estimator tool.
The types of projects you do over and over can be templated to establish accuracy and consistency. If you're quoting for a project that's similar to others you've done, you can pull in the relevant parts of their fee estimates to build the budget. Or start from scratch if you prefer - there's an option for every scenario.
With optional approval workflows, solid multi-currency and rate card management, version control, and more, you can confidently give clients the level of detail they demand.
Easy Timesheets & Expenses
Tracking time and expenses is the absolute core for a services company, but most systems make this painful and
CMAP makes it easy because (a) it's so straightforward and (b) as you can submit them from anywhere on desktop, tablet or mobile.
The CMAP Go smartphone app is available on iOS and Android devices and is packed with useful features, including taking photos of expense receipts and uploading them to your claim and completing your weekly timesheet.
Human Resources
Better leverage your people and their skills using CMAP’s HR module.
Through the use of People Profiles and timesheet data, you can keep track of which clients and projects your team has worked on – so if any related projects come up you know who’s already well versed.
Thanks to custom fields, you can also add specific skills and market experience to each staff member too. Need someone on a job who speaks Spanish? Find them at a glance.
You can also store important documents such as health and safety forms and contracts against individual profiles. Plus, there’s space for general forms like handbooks, style guides and so on in the overall HR tab too.
Fully Connected CRM
From a contacts directory, through to lead and opportunity management, CMAP effortlessly streamlines your business development.
Key functionality includes:
- Companies and contacts database for names, addresses, phone numbers, etc.
- Activities to encourage sales-follow up.
- Weighted probability-adjusted forecasting for revenue or resourcing reports.
- Seamless lead to pipeline to project conversion workflow - no rekeying or duplication.
- Alerts on your dashboard, in CMAP For Outlook and in CMAP Go on your smartphone.
