Project Cost Management Software to Compare Budgets & Actual Costs

Start with a project budget, then see how recorded hours and costs compare with your estimates. BizCompass helps you examine cost breakdowns and financial reports, so decisions about project spending are based on the work behind the numbers.

Set Project Budgets Alongside Work Estimates

Agree on the time and budget a project is expected to use before work begins. Project dates, estimated hours, billing methods and available rate settings give managers a starting point for examining costs as the project progresses.

Compare Estimated and Actual Project Hours and Costs

See whether the hours and costs recorded against a project match what was originally expected. Developer-wise and module-wise comparisons, along with budget-related analytics, give managers a clearer basis for examining differences and discussing the financial plan.

Work Areas

Understand Project Costs by People and Work Areas

Project totals become more useful when you can identify what contributes to them. Examine cost distribution across employees, departments, designations and modules, with separate hour-based views providing more context about how project resources are used.

Employee Setup

Understand Billing Methods and Billable Project Hours

The hours spent on a project are not always billed in the same way. Project billing settings and billable versus non-billable time records help managers distinguish overall effort from the time classified for billing.

Billable

Examine Project Spending Through Cost Reports

Understand what contributes to a reported cost instead of relying on a summary alone. Project cost reports bring worked hours, logged time, rates, costs and additional expenses into context, giving managers more detail when examining project spending.

Cost Reports

Keep Customer Renewals and Payment Status Organized

Keep customer services and licences on track for renewal, with clear responsibility for each one. BizCompass provides a separate Renewals module to maintain renewal periods, charges and customer details, along with paid status and reminder options for timely follow-ups.
