Make More Money With Project Management Software For Architects

By Rachael Gutierrez


Everybody knows that one of the most difficult things associated with working in freelance is maintaining the number of billable hours associated with each job. Architects are not excused from this fact. Any time your records are not accurate, you are letting money fall through your hands. The solution to this problem is project management software for architects.

You may wonder how you keep track of your time when not all billable hours are charged at the same rate. It's too time-consuming to keep track of this information yourself and too expensive to hire someone to do it for you. That is where software can drastically increase your productivity and profits.

When you're working on multiple jobs at one time and working under tight budgets and deadlines it is easy to underestimate the amount of time and money spent on a certain project. Sometimes your estimates will be too high, and sometimes they will be too low. Either way, it is bad for your business. Software can also make it easier to keep your job on time and on budget.

This information also makes it easier when it comes time to send an invoice to your client. Not only are you able to maximize your profits by making sure you are billing for every possible hour spent on the project, but your client is also able to see exactly what they are paying you for. After all, you wouldn't expect to pay a bill you were handed without knowing what it is you were paying for.

Not only are you able to bill more efficiently, but you will actually be able to involve your client in a way that lets them know the progress of the project. It is incredibly easy to send your client a progress report as the project moves along. Also, this allows you to hold yourself accountable to the budget and the deadline you are working under.

Not only is keeping track of your progress helpful for the client, but it also helps you keep track of how long each stage of the process normally takes. Over time, this information can be aggregated to help you make better decisions about the possible time and cost expected for future projects. It allows you to give more accurate quotes to prospective clients and cut down on unforeseen costs.

With this ability to see your time spent on multiple projects over a long period of time you will also have the ability to make yourself more efficient. You will be able to evaluate what parts of a project take the longest which will help you be able to find ways to prioritize your time. This will not only help you become more efficient, but also help you complete more jobs and bring in more money.

All in all, project management software for architects is the best way to maintain records of hours billed, increase the accuracy of your records, show your clients what they are being billed for and keep them up to date on the progress of the job. The software also helps you get a better sense of the bigger picture in that you will be able to study your own working habits over time and increase the efficiency of your work. As a result, you will see your profits increase.
