Architecture, Engineering, & Design
Keep projects on track with a cloud-based solution that automates workflows, tracks costs in real time, and simplifies project management. With NetSuite and Appficiency, AED firms gain full visibility into job costing, billing, milestones, and resources from concept to completion.

Complex Projects Just Became Easier to Manage
The hard work in architecture, engineering and design goes beyond the job site. It also includes the hours spent managing spreadsheets, juggling disconnected systems, and entering data manually. Tracking job costs, planning resources, billing clients, and meeting compliance requirements becomes a major challenge without the right tools.
That is where Appficiency and NetSuite make a difference. We help firms bring all their operations into one cloud-based system built for the unique demands of design and construction. With real time visibility, project based accounting, and full integration of project workflows, you gain the clarity and control to run projects smoothly from planning to delivery. This reduces complexity and supports every team, from leadership to field service.
