Run Your Consultancy From One Place

PSA software sized for 5-50 consultants: from framework agreement to finished e-invoice, without the weight of an enterprise suite.

Consulting Cockpit - Insights
The Insights dashboard: billable hours, revenue and average utilization for the year, utilization per consultant and revenue per month.

Five Tools, No Overview

01

Hours Scattered Across Spreadsheets

Every new consultant adds another sheet, and month end turns into a hunt for missing hours.

02

Budgets Checked Too Late

You learn a purchase order is used up when the client refuses to pay the overrun.

03

Invoices Built by Hand

Hours from one tool, rates from a contract PDF, the invoice from a template: days of copying every month.

04

Suites Made for Enterprises

The big professional services automation suites are built for large firms, not a founder with twelve consultants.

One Cycle, Client to Invoice

Each step feeds the next, so nothing is typed twice.

  1. Set Up Clients and Agreements

    Add a client, its framework agreement and the purchase orders under it, each with its own budget cap, period and hourly rate.

  2. Track Time Where the Work Happens

    Consultants start a live timer or draw hours on a week calendar. Several timers can run at once, one per client, and each Kanban task shows the time spent on it.

  3. Match Hours to Budgets

    Tracked hours are matched to the valid purchase order. The order shows used amount, percentage and what is left.

  4. Turn Timesheets Into E-Invoices

    Pull completed billable hours into a timesheet for a date range. Once it is approved, one button builds the invoice draft; when finished, it is an EN 16931 e-invoice in ZUGFeRD.

  5. Read the Numbers

    Insights shows utilisation, billable and non-billable hours and billability per consultant per month. Revenue is visible to the owner only.

Caps, Locks and a Record

The rules a small consultancy needs, applied without anyone watching.

No Billing Past the Cap

When an order is used up, new hours move to the next valid order under the agreement. Nothing is billed beyond the cap.

Locked Once Billed

Entries pulled into a timesheet lock, so invoiced hours cannot change afterwards. Every e-invoice is validated before it can be finished.

Members See Their Clients Only

Consultants book time only to projects their teams cover and see only those clients.

Every Change on Record

Changes to time entries, salaries and leave allowances are kept in an audit log.

Common Questions.

What is PSA software?

Professional services automation software runs the work of a services firm in one place: clients, contracts, time, billing and reporting. Consulting Cockpit covers that cycle for consultancies of 5-50 people.

Is it a PSA tool for small consultancies or for large firms?

It is built for small and mid-sized consultancies that bill hours against client budgets. You add clients, agreements and purchase orders yourself and start tracking.

Which e-invoice formats are supported?

Invoices are EN 16931 e-invoices in ZUGFeRD; XRechnung and the Leitweg-ID for public-sector clients are not supported yet. Skonto terms from the framework agreement can be printed on the invoice.

Does it handle leave and public holidays?

Yes. Leave requests go through approval, with yearly allowances and carryover expiry; public holiday calendars cover Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Poland, Albania and the United Kingdom, by region where one applies, and other countries are not supported yet.

Does it plan who works on which project next month?

No. It records and bills the work that is done; it does not plan future bookings of your consultants.

Where is it built and hosted?

It is built by GRAN Software Solutions GmbH in Berlin and hosted in Europe.
