BQE CORE

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.

Pros

  • Ease of Use
  • User Interface
  • Invoicing
  • Invoice Management
  • Time Tracking
  • User-Friendly

Operating

Operating is an AI-enabled professional services automation (PSA) platform for running the business behind complex consulting work. It puts time, people, projects, and money in one place and sits in between the CRM and accounting platform. It's the one hub for running the professional services delivery. Operating is built by former IT services professionals.

Pros

  • Customer Support
  • Team Collaboration
  • Time Tracking
  • Intuitive
  • Project Management
  • Navigation Ease
