More on the product

Running a large consulting company is complex

Hundreds of projects, tens of teams, and thousands of consultants. Your team spends a lot time planning for things that ends up being canceled or postponed. It takes too much time with clunky disconnected systems no one understands.

That’s why we built Operating. Designed for enterprise consulting companies, Operating streamlines project staffing, resource allocation, time tracking, and forecasting. Less busywork, more time for clients.

Fewer Excel sheets, a reliable future outlook – what's not to like!

Centralizing our capacity planning and skill matrix Excels into Operating has made running the business easier.

Everyone now has visibility to upcoming and current projects. The information that used to live in people's heads is now in Operating.
