Most advisory firms are billing.Far fewer are seeing real margin.
Hours are logged late. Utilization is murky. Rate cards get applied wrong. Juntrax is built for advisory firms that bill by the hour and want every billable minute, every rate card, and every receivable on one platform — so margin stops disappearing between QBRs.

Five leaks in every advisory firm
— silent until QBR.
If you bill by the hour, these are the silent margin killers. Most firms ignore them until QBR. By then, the money is gone.
The bench leak
Consultants between engagements that nobody is tracking. By the time you notice utilization has dropped, it has been three months and the partner pipeline is dry.
The scope creep leak
Juniors say yes to extra workstreams without a scope amendment. The partner finds out at month-end. The client refuses to pay extra. Margin booked, then surrendered.
The late timesheet leak
Consultants log hours two to three weeks late. Invoices delay. Cash flow suffers. Some hours never get billed because nobody remembers them.
The rate card leak
Partner-level work billed at senior rates. Senior work billed at analyst rates. Nobody catches it until the next QBR, when margins are already booked.
The visibility leak
Your data lives in spreadsheets, Toggl, Xero, and three Slack threads. Nobody trusts any single number. Every partner decision starts with a question, not an answer.
Each leak plugged by a module you already need — on one shared ledger.
HRMS, PSA, and Cash-Flow on one shared database. Each leak above maps to a capability below.
Live utilization tracking
Consultant-level utilization. Team allocation views. See bench time before it shows up in monthly numbers.
Engagement P&L with live margin
Project financials dashboard with live margins from invoices, POs, and timesheets. See the burn before month-end.
Timesheets that auto-invoice
Timesheets with bill rate per role. Hours flow directly from timesheets into client invoices. No copy-paste.
Rate cards by role and region
Bill rate by role and location. Auto-applied per timesheet entry. Approval flags on rate mismatches.
One source of truth
People, projects, and finances on one shared database. One view. One number. The Friday reconciliation, gone.
What 12 months on Juntrax looks like.
Modeled on the median Juntrax advisory customer. Your numbers will vary, but the direction won't.
From Friday reconciliation to live margin in one view .
A 45-consultant strategy firm with offices in NYC, London, and Singapore. Three currencies, four rate tiers, and a partner spending Fridays reconciling timesheets. After 12 months on Juntrax, utilization climbed 16 points, DSO was cut by more than half, and Friday reconciliations dropped from six hours to thirty minutes.
Before Juntrax, I'd spend Fridays reconciling timesheets and chasing invoices. Now I see utilization, margin, and AR aging in the same view. We stopped losing engagements to delayed invoicing the day we went live.
What 12 points of utilization is worth.
Drag the sliders. Watch the math. The numbers are conservative, based on what our customers actually see in their first 12 months on Juntrax.
