◆ What We Build

Professional Services technology,
delivered in days.

01

PSA & ERP Integration

Connect your Professional Services Automation platform (Salesforce PSA, Certinia, Mavenlink, Kantata) with ERP, billing, and HR systems — automating resource allocation, time tracking, and project financials.

02

Client Portal Development

Build branded self-service client portals for project status, deliverable review, invoice approval, and communication — reducing account management overhead while improving client satisfaction scores.

03

Time, Billing & Revenue Recognition

Automate time capture, invoice generation, milestone billing, and ASC 606 revenue recognition — connecting your PSA to NetSuite, QuickBooks, or Sage with zero manual reconciliation.

04

CRM & Business Development

Optimize Salesforce, HubSpot, or Microsoft Dynamics for professional services — with proposal automation, pipeline forecasting, and win/loss analytics that drive revenue predictability.

05

Knowledge Management Systems

Build internal knowledge bases, project template libraries, and methodology repositories — making institutional knowledge searchable, reusable, and accessible across distributed teams.

06

Utilization & Delivery Dashboards

Real-time dashboards showing billable utilization, project health scores, margin by engagement, and resource capacity — giving leadership the data to optimize delivery and protect margins.

◆ Where Professional Services Teams Get Stuck

We know exactly what breaks
in professional services technology.

01

Billable Utilization & Resource Management

The Problems

  • Utilization tracking is done in spreadsheets updated weekly — by the time under-utilized resources are identified, the margin impact is already locked in for the month

  • Resource allocation decisions are made without visibility into future project demand — consultants get over-allocated on one project while bench time accumulates elsewhere

  • No automated signal when a project is trending toward budget overrun — PMs find out when time is already spent, not when there's still room to course-correct

  • Staff skill inventory and certification tracking aren't connected to resource planning — the best-fit person for a project isn't always the one who gets assigned

How We Deliver It

DAISA builds real-time utilization dashboards connected to your PSA and time-tracking systems, creates predictive resource demand models, and automates over-budget alerts — shifting resource management from reactive monthly reviews to proactive daily visibility.

Delivered in 2–4 weeks
02

Revenue Leakage & Billing Friction

The Problems

  • Time not logged within 24 hours gets forgotten, estimated, or never captured — industry research shows 15–20% of billable hours are lost to incomplete time tracking in professional services firms

  • Invoice generation requires manual review of time entries, expense reports, and contract terms — a billing cycle that should take hours takes days and is prone to errors that trigger disputes

  • Fixed-fee engagements with scope change requests have no automated tracking — additional work gets delivered without formal approval, and the firm absorbs the cost

  • ASC 606 revenue recognition requires complex calculations across milestone, percentage-of-completion, and time-and-materials contracts — managed in spreadsheets with audit risk

How We Deliver It

DAISA builds automated time capture prompts, invoice generation workflows connected directly to your PSA data, scope change request tracking with automated approval workflows, and ASC 606 revenue recognition calculations — eliminating billing friction and the revenue leakage that comes with it.

Delivered in 2–4 weeks
03

Client Experience & Delivery Consistency

The Problems

  • Client deliverable reviews, approval cycles, and status updates still happen through email threads — creating version control chaos and leaving clients without clear visibility into project progress

  • Onboarding new clients requires re-creating the same project setup manually each time — no standardized templates, kickoff checklist automation, or repeatable workflow library

  • Satisfaction surveys (NPS, CSAT) are sent manually after engagements and rarely analyzed systematically — there's no early warning system for at-risk relationships

  • Knowledge from completed engagements isn't captured in a reusable form — the next team doing similar work starts from scratch, reinventing approaches that already exist inside the firm

How We Deliver It

DAISA builds a client portal for transparent project visibility, creates standardized onboarding and delivery workflow templates, automates satisfaction measurement with at-risk alerting, and builds a searchable knowledge base that captures and surfaces institutional methodology across every engagement.

◆ The one engagement we don’t run

There is exactly one
thing we will not do.

Everything else we ship — fast, owned by your team, with senior engineers on the call. Here is the single exception.

Not us

You need an org-wide ERP migration to NetSuite, Workday, or SAP with hundreds of consultants and quarterly steering committees.

Why

Pick a Big 4 firm or top-tier ERP partner. That model exists for full ERP transformations.

Not us

You need a strategic operating model redesign across delivery, sales, and back office.

Why

Pick Bain, McKinsey, or BCG. We build the systems that operationalize their strategy.

Not us

You want long-term managed services for your PSA, billing, and CRM systems.

Why

Pick a traditional MSP. We deliver code your team owns and operates.

Everything else? Let’s build it.
