Deltek Costpoint is a versatile solution that caters to various departments within an organization. Program managers rely on Costpoint for real-time tracking of project status, performance, and funding. The Finance & Accounting department primarily utilizes Costpoint for financial system purposes, while other departments access the required information as needed.

For accounting purposes, Costpoint is heavily relied upon for tasks such as invoicing, billing, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. It serves as the primary accounting and finance system, effectively addressing revenue recognition, billing, invoices, and accounts payable. Additionally, employees across the organization utilize Costpoint for completing billing period time sheets and tracking billable hours.

The integration with Cognos allows for comprehensive reporting and analytics, enabling the generation of insightful reports to support decision-making processes. Furthermore, the asset and inventory management modules are planned to be deployed by the end of 2018, further enhancing Costpoint's capabilities.

  • I love the capability to look at my project data at specific levels or to roll it up to the top level. This allows management to see just what they need and not have a lot of extraneous data. It allows you to really personalize how you want your project information set up.
  • The ability to set users up with just the permissions to see gather the information needed. Specifically making sure that the information can only be changed by the proper people. That way we can make sure that separation of duties is maintained and sensitive information can be protected.
  • Having the chance to personalize reports to each user is awesome. Then you don't have to wade through mountains of unneeded data.
