How a Bangalore IT firm automated client billing with C36Space
The Background
The client is a software consultancy agency located in Bangalore, KA, providing specialized engineering teams and custom R&D services to clients globally.
The Challenge
Engineers tracked billable hours on independent timesheet spreadsheets. At month-end, the project manager had to manually compile, verify, and match these timesheets against client retainer contracts. This took up to 16 hours of accounting labor every month, delaying invoice generation.
The Solution
The agency implemented C36Space Project Management and Timesheets. Engineers now log billable hours directly against active tasks. The system compiles approved timesheet lines automatically on contract milestones, raising professional invoices with a click.
The Results
Month-end billing compilation was reduced from 16 hours to a single click, boosting billing accuracy and speeding up cash collection cycles by 8 days. Project profitability charts are now visible in real-time.
"Compiling billable tasks from timesheets used to take two full days of spreadsheet sorting. Now, we invoice on milestone completion with one click."
Manually verifying loose timesheet spreadsheets against client contracts delayed month-end invoicing by over a week.
Engineers log hours directly against task items, which compile automatically into approved, professional invoices.
