| ...Job Costing For Professionals... |
|
Are you under-billing your clients? Are you overrunning on time budgets or costs, or do you actually know the profit or loss on each job? Are you as efficient as you could be on repetitive admin tasks? If you are a firm of professionals, such as consulting engineers or surveyors, Amber-JCS can help you to increase billing and reduce costs, and make job profit visible. |

| Why Amber-JCS? | ||||||||
|
"We have found the Amber-JCS to be a vital tool in our day-to-day operations.." Duncan Laxen MD, Air Quality Consultants |
||||||||

||||||||
|
The Amber-JCS is a simple and user-friendly timesheet and invoicing system, which has been designed specifically for professional firms. It is ideal in particular for the smaller professional practice with one to three offices. The emphasis is on fee-based time - not stock. |
||||||||
|
Its primary purpose is to help your firm to maximise it's efficiency; and more specifically, to help you manage jobs, maximise billings, simplify administration, incentivise staff, and improve cash flow. Amber-JCS does this by tracking job costs (and staff time in particular), and by simplifying and automating much of the sales invoicing process. It also provides critical management information - if you do not measure it, it is difficult to control, and difficult to take pre-emptive action. If you have Sage 50, Amber-JCS can help you even more. Amber-JCS can link seamlessly with Sage 50, and is a registered Sage Addition. |
