Designed by a team with extensive experience in the AEC industry, Rapport3 is an ERP solution uniquely configured to best serve architectural practices with all their project management and job costing needs. 

Make managing timesheets simple. Time is entered through a straightforward interface, which links back to your resource planner, so architects are aware of the time they have spent on a task compared with how much time had been allocated. Booked leave pre-populates into timesheets, and there are options such as flexi-time and auto-approvals to ensure Rapport3 works flawlessly with your architectural practice. 

Add time and details on the go via the mobile app, or through our Outlook plug-in. This plug-in enables you to add information to the Rapport3 system through Outlook, so there is no need to be constantly swapping apps. 

Resource Planning 

Our resource planning function builds on the budget planning section, providing a greater level of detail by allowing staff to be assigned against the workstage and grade. A RAG-style resource grid is always available to present team availability based on leave and existing commitments. True to Rapport3’s core function, resource planning is never done in isolation from costs. Profit or loss is continuously presented, allowing the user to witness the financial implications of their resource changes.

Quality Assurance 

Quality assurance is an essential aspect to any project, so unlike most management systems, Rapport3 ensures tasks are auto-associated to the project team member and displayed on the user dashboard to review. 

A comprehensive birds-eye view of the project conformance is accessible. Gateway review input features enable your architectural firm to check each step meticulously; ideal for meeting the requirements of ISO 9001.

Contacts 

Key contact information is clearly displayed on the dashboard, with an intelligent contact lifecycle retaining company history. Our powerful dashboard has features unlike any competitor, including a campaign management system, comprehensive integration with Outlook, and the capability to manage business development tasks through mobile and Outlook plugins. Our system has been updated to ensure it is completely efficient in complying to new GDPR laws.



Mobile

Rapport3 is mobile-optimised for iPhone and Android, meaning that architects can create business development notes on the go, capture timesheets and expenses, and search for contacts, projects and staff on a concise and intuitive dashboard.

Business Intelligence & Dashboards 

Rapport3 provides powerful tools to analyse your data, whether this be by real-time dashboards available on the homepage, individual dashboards or contact dashboards. Rapport3 provides easy access to over 100 reports, offering everything from staff skills to project P&L.
