Problem

Partners lack real-time margin view?

Data from staffing, expenses, and billing lives in separate trackers, so leadership gets stale profitability snapshots.

Solution

Flowtly unifies staffing plans, rate cards, and invoices. Margin alerts trigger when burn deviates, and partners drill down by workstream instantly.

Problem

Approvals and knowledge live in inboxes?

Engagement teams rely on email to share deliverables and collect sign-offs, slowing handoffs and leaving no audit trail.

Solution

Share deliverables, approvals, and playbooks in Flowtly with granular permissions. Clients sign off in-platform, and knowledge stays organized for future teams.

Problem

Credentials and staffing rules ignored when matters change?

Scheduling is ad hoc, so the wrong seniority or practice joins matters, risking non-compliance with client or regulatory requirements.

Solution

Flowtly enforces staffing by credential, seniority, and practice. Matter rosters and calendars sync with approvals so the right mix joins, and alerts fire before a breach.

Problem

Billing rules differ by matter and get applied late?

Fixed-fee, T&M, and retainers each have their own rules, but they’re applied in spreadsheets after work is done—causing write-offs and disputes.

Solution

Set billing rules per matter in Flowtly: retainers with drawdowns, fixed-fee milestones, or T&M with rate cards. Approvals, time, and expenses feed invoices automatically so partners see margin before closing.

FAQ

Consulting FAQs

From SOW control to managed services inside Flowtly.

How does Flowtly control SOW changes?

Each engagement tracks scope, milestones, and budgets. Change requests update allocations, approvals, and downstream invoicing automatically.

Can Flowtly handle fixed-fee, T&M, and retainers together?

Yes. Create each matter type with its billing rules—drawdowns for retainers, milestones for fixed-fee, or T&M with rate cards. Approvals, time, and expenses keep invoices aligned automatically.

How do we forecast capacity and revenue?

Pipeline, staffing, and rate cards combine into rolling forecasts so partners see utilization gaps and revenue projections per practice.

Can we restrict staffing by credential/practice/role?

Yes. Matters carry staffing rules by practice, seniority, and credential. Rosters and calendars enforce them, and alerts fire before a non-compliant swap is scheduled.

Where do documents and approvals live—can clients sign off?

Deliverables, versions, and approvals stay in Flowtly with audit trails. Invite clients to approve in-platform or via secure portals so sign-offs aren’t buried in email threads.

Can clients review deliverables and approvals inside Flowtly?

Invite clients into secure workspaces or share dedicated portals. They can comment on deliverables, approve stages, and see history without email threads.
