For professional services firms

You won the work. Who's watching the money?

TNE Connect puts time, expenses and holiday in one place, for every job you run. So you can see what a job is really costing while you can still do something about it.

One system Instead of three spreadsheets
Live numbers Not a month behind
Per job Set up in days

SOUND FAMILIAR?

How most grants start

  1. 01 You win the work and agree a fee.
  2. 02 Your main system can't handle the new job.
  3. 03 Someone builds a spreadsheet instead.
  4. 04 Nobody checks it until the invoice.

What changes

You sell time. So you should be able to count it.

Four things firms notice in the first month.

  • 01

    Know what a job costs today

    See the hours and costs on a job against the fee you agreed. Any day you like, not four weeks later.
  • 02

    See who's busy and who isn't

    Time, holiday and availability sit together. So you can plan the next job from real numbers.
  • 03

    Stop losing expenses

    Staff photograph a receipt on the day. It's logged to the right job before anyone forgets it.
  • 04

    One system, not three

    Timesheets, expenses and holiday in one place. Nothing to match up at the end of the month.

Managing timesheets and expenses was a constant hassle, especially on long projects where data spanned many years.

Is this you

Who it's for

A good fit if…

  • You're a consultancy or advisory firm of 50 to 250 people
  • Your jobs run six months or longer
  • Time and expenses live in spreadsheets
  • Someone asks at the end why the job made less than planned

Not yet if…

  • Your work is done and dusted in a few weeks
  • You already have a system that handles jobs properly
  • Nobody owns whether a job makes money

Built by people who
ran long programmes
for a living

TNE Connect was built by two former PwC delivery leads. They watched big systems fail to cope with individual programmes, and watched teams build a spreadsheet in week one because there was nothing else. That spreadsheet kept causing problems at reporting time. So they fixed it.

Straight answers

No. It sits underneath. TNE Connect handles time, expenses and holiday on each job, then sends clean data to whatever you use for finance and payroll.

Yes, and we’d recommend it. One live job gives you a clear answer in 30 days. Rolling out everywhere at once gives you a mess.

Yes. Rates are set per job, so the same person can be charged differently on different work.

Very little. We set it up for you. Your team submits time by email, desktop or mobile. Most people need no training.
