It allows them to maximise revenue, adhere to good billing practices and meet compliance obligations. Although vital to the financial health of an organisation, correctly capturing all time spent on client projects is one of the most challenging tasks that busy professionals undertake. Carpe Diem is our innovative time recording solution. It helps professional services organisations, such as those in the legal and financial sectors, capture billable time from any location, at any time, on any device. LEARN MORE Understanding key issues CHALLENGES Manual capture Busy employees may work on numerous client projects every day. Any delay in manually recording time makes it difficult to accurately capture how much time was spent on each activity. Mobile working Having to return to a desktop to capture time makes it more likely that time will be lost and re-entering data from handwritten notes increases the burden of administration. Fee setting Many clients expect pre-agreed prices. Reliable data regarding time spent on project completion is a significant factor in correctly measuring the cost and profitability of projects. Compliance Professional billing must meet regulatory requirements. The task of interpreting billable time for every individual project takes time and puts additional pressure on staff. Client satisfaction With the advent of competitive online service offers, client loyalty is decreasing. Charges need to be detailed and accurate to remove the risk of client dissatisfaction or complaints. >40% OF TIME SPENT ON NON-BILLABLE TASKS LIKE ADMINISTRATION PROFESSIONALS CAN LOSE UP TO 1 HOUR A DAY THROUGH TIME LEAKAGE THE VALUE OF THOSE LOST HOURS CAN BE UP TO £65,000 PER ANNUM How Time Recording can help you FEATURES & BENEFITS Smart time recording Mobility Business reporting A tailored approach Smart time recording Simple to use and instantly accessible, Carpe Diem can assist your firm by cutting time capture administration and allowing you to increase revenue in line with the total number of hours billed.
