Your firm is winning.Almost none know which projects are actually profitable.
New commissions keep coming. Timesheets don't. Phase fees get invoiced weeks late. Revision hours disappear into 'design time'. Juntrax closes the loop — from first timesheet entry to final payment, on one platform.

Where the money goes
before you notice.
Most architectural firms aren't losing money in big ways. It's the small things — hours not logged, invoices sent late, extra revisions nobody tracked — that quietly eat the margin on every project.
Unlogged hours
Site visits, contractor calls, late-night revisions — if it's not on a timesheet, it doesn't make the invoice. Most firms lose 3–5 hours per architect every week without realising it.
Scope creep absorbed
One more design option turns into four. The extra hours go untracked, absorbed into the fixed fee, and the project ends up less profitable than it started — every time.
Late phase invoicing
Design Development is done. The team has moved on. The invoice for that phase sits in a draft for three weeks — that's three weeks the client holds cash that should be in your account.
Subcontractor chaos
Three consultant invoices, two pass-through agreements, one quietly mis-billed PO. By the time the client invoice goes out, nobody can remember which costs were meant to flow through.
No live profitability
You have six live projects and no clear picture of which ones are profitable — until the quarter closes. By then it's too late to do anything about it.
From leaks to lift — one platform, one ledger.
Each leak above maps directly to a Juntrax module. Hours flow into timesheets, timesheets flow into invoices, invoices flow into your cash dashboard — without anyone re-keying a number.

What changes when the leaks close.
Modeled on the median Juntrax architecture customer. Your numbers will vary, but the direction won't.
From phase chaos to one source of truth — in under a month.
Vertex was running eight live projects across two cities on spreadsheets, WhatsApp threads, and a six-week-old picture of margin. Twenty-eight days after switching to Juntrax, every phase, timesheet, and invoice lived in one dashboard — and the principal stopped finding out about losing projects at quarter-end.
We had eight live projects across two cities and zero visibility into which ones were making money. Phase invoices were going out three weeks late. Juntrax gave us one dashboard where the principal can see every phase, every timesheet, and every invoice — and our billing lag went from 25 days to under a week.
What 5 points of utilization is worth.
Drag the sliders. The math doesn't lie. Every day between phase completion and invoice raised is a day the client holds your cash.

Talk to architecture team →For a 15–50 architect firm, typical go-live is 2–4 weeks: Week 1 for HRMS setup (employee records, payroll, attendance), Week 2 for PSA (projects, phases, timesheets, bill rates), Week 3 for Cash-Flow (invoicing, POs, receivables), Week 4 for pilot and team training. Multi-office practices with multiple currencies typically land at 4–6 weeks.
Yes. Project phases are fully configurable — you define the names, sequence, and fee allocation per phase. Most architectural firms use SD, DD, CD, and CA, but Juntrax supports any phase structure: concept, schematic, tender, construction, or whatever your contracts specify. Hours, budgets, and invoices all attach to the phase.
Yes. Purchase Orders are raised per vendor and attached to the relevant project and phase. Consultant costs are tracked against the project budget and can be passed through directly to client invoices. You see the margin after subcontractor costs in real time — not just at month-end when it's too late to act.
Yes. Juntrax integrates with Tally, QuickBooks, and Xero for ledger sync. Most architectural practices keep their accountant in their existing system — Juntrax handles project tracking, timesheets, invoicing, and HR, then pushes journal entries to your accounting platform. Your CA doesn't need to change anything.
Each office runs its own entity, currency, and compliance rules within the same Juntrax instance. Architects in Dubai bill in AED and see UAE leave rules; Mumbai architects see INR payroll and Indian statutory compliance. The principal gets a consolidated view across both offices — project margins, utilization, and cash flow in one dashboard.
No. A 10-architect studio leaks margin in the same five places as a 100-architect firm — just at smaller absolute numbers. Juntrax has a Starter tier built for studios of 5–25, deployed in under a week, with the same core PSA and HRMS modules.
