Software to manage the skilled professionals that make your AEC firm run
Our connected software platform offers precise solutions or end-to-end coverage for all your people management needs. Whether you’re looking to better manage one specific area, or you’re interested in improving your staff and client experience across the board, we have the tools to help.
Find the students and mid-career talent your firm needs
Your firm needs to find skilled hires in top schools and from experienced backgrounds. Our applicant tracking system is perfect for architecture, engineering, or construction, because you can filter applicants based on the skills and diversity you need. Hire students and grads for your internship programs, prioritizing your top schools and picking candidates with the potential to become full-time employees. Find lateral hires without losing money on search firm fees. Manage high-volume interview scheduling and candidate correspondence.
Give your new hires a welcoming and supportive experience
Rather than your average onboarding set-up, an integration plan will give your talent a strategic timeline that will last 6 months to 2 years. Set up timelines with meetings, introductions, and tasks that are specific to your firm’s industry and your new hire’s role. Track all new hire progress, with alerts so you know if anyone is behind schedule on their timeline. Use real-time feedback on every event to hear directly from your new hires and your integration teams. Know whether your new people are happy at your firm, as well as whether they’re measuring up to your firm’s expectations.
Know each employee's availability and plan capacity for your team
Our resource allocation software helps you identify who is available to take on upcoming work by having people forecast their availability, including project hours and days in the office. Know what your professionals are working on, and use that to inform who you decide to put on a project to ensure it is done well and is completed on time. Color-coding allows for quick assessment of who is busy and who is available. See who needs more work to stay productive, and who is in danger of having too much to do. Perfect for managing remote work setups.
Effectively allocate resources in your firm and assign work to your engineers
AEC firms can track availability, demographics, skills, and more, using individual associate profiles to better staff their projects. Improve capacity planning and avoid over or underutilization of your people. Make sure everyone is getting an equitable workload with chances to grow and advance. Manage summer students or grads as they rotate them through key projects and departments.
Make your annual evaluations count for every employee
Our software is designed to evaluate your people and manage their performance while considering the various projects they work on. For example, if an engineer is contributing to a project, our system connects them to the work they did and the supervisor who needs to evaluate them. Many-to-many feedback is made simple, and can be supported by any other evaluations you want to run annually. Use analytics to see who meets expectations and who needs more help. Review progress and improvement throughout careers with year-over-year reports.
Continuous feedback that enhances employee performance
Professionals in these industries need continual performance feedback as they work on complex projects throughout the year. For example: an architect may request feedback on project direction, or a construction team may be given notes that majorly improve a project’s outcome. Our tool enables feedback requests at any point. You can also set up automated reminders to provide feedback at project checkpoints. Know that your employees are being supported and the work is being done for your clients as efficiently as possible. Recording this dialogue throughout the year will also support annual evaluations.
Give your professionals the gift of continuing education
Our learning management system (LMS) is designed to implement professional services firms' education needs. Create a structured learning curriculum for your professionals. Plan in-person and remote classes, with full Outlook calendar integration. Each person has a homepage that tracks their progress and lets them easily register for courses. They can access the resources that they need to become well-rounded and advance. Program our credit tracking engine with your industry’s accreditation rules, such as project manager certification or professional engineer accreditation, or design your own internal credit system.
Assess your firm’s skills and fill gaps with work experience
With our skills tracking software, review your firm’s overall skills and competencies to inform talent strategy and individual skills development. Give your professionals a clear view of the skills and experience they need to improve and advance. Create progressive skills tracking for the positions, practice areas, and career levels at your firm. For instance, skills tracking can take your summer architecture student all the way to becoming a partner at your firm. Professionals can track their progress as they gain experience on a project. Integrate with our workload allocation software to put diverse teams on projects and give them opportunities to learn skills from each other.
