BQE CORE vs. Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)

BQE CORE is an all-in-one project management, time tracking, billing, CRM, and accounting platform for architecture and engineering firms. Most firms are stuck tracking the wrong metrics, or none at all, while the numbers that actually drive profitability stay buried in spreadsheets and disconnected systems. That gets harder to ignore once a firm has grown past a single office, brought on dedicated finance and operations staff, and started running several projects at once.

Kantata helps professional services organizations of 50 to 5,000+ employees ensure consistent excellence and profitability across every project. With a platform that connects everything from scoping to resourcing to forecasting, you can always deliver amazing. The real challenge for most PS organizations is that their projects are so unpredictable. They never really know how an engagement is going to play out until it’s too late to do anything about it. And that undermines profits, strains resources, and leaves clients wondering what they’re really paying for.
