Who it's for

Strategy practices

Strategy practices often deliver a sequence of workshops and written recommendations. Each client engagement needs an owner, a contract value, budget hours and dates. Keep each workshop or deliverable tied to the engagement so a partner can review what has been delivered before discussing more scope.

How Management Consulting PSA is set up for you

Client relationship

A Partner owns clients while an Engagement Manager owns each engagements record. One client can have multiple active assignments with different budgets.

Delivery review

Consultants enter time entries and service entries for workshops, analysis and presentation work. Submitted service lines move through the guarded approval.

Commercial check

The Engagement Margin Desk lets the partner compare delivered amount and cost with contract value, invoiced service amount and remaining hours.

Strategy practices often deliver a sequence of workshops and written recommendations. Each client engagement needs an owner, a contract value, budget hours and dates. Keep each workshop or deliverable tied to the engagement so a partner can review what has been delivered before discussing more scope.

Start with one active client and one strategy engagement. Enter its contract value, budget hours and expected end date. Name the manager and practice, then have the working team enter its time and service lines. Submission runs the service checks; the manager inspects each result before using approved service amount in a review. A line that fails those checks stays Submitted with a Failed operation receipt.

If the work is billed by milestones, record each deliverable summary, amount and due date. Approve the milestone after checking the deliverable, then let Finance Manager run the invoice operation. At the partner review, distinguish delivery completed from invoices recorded and payments received. Use [engagement setup](/psa-for-management-consulting/processes/engagement-setup) to rehearse the first assignment.
