You scope the work. Margin handles the financial math.
Overhead, markups, and profit layer in automatically. You see your true cost and margin without building the formula yourself.
You know the work. Margin knows the math.
When you price a project, you do what you're good at: pick the roles, estimate the hours, add the expenses. You know the scope because you know the work.
Margin handles the rest. Overhead from your org settings layers in automatically. Markups apply to contractors and expenses. Profit targets are factored into the suggested price. The result is a number built from what things actually cost — labor, overhead, contractors, expenses, and profit — without you building the formula in a spreadsheet.
You can override the suggested price at the project or activity level. But you always see the real margin before you do, so the override is a decision, not a guess.
Four layers. One price.
The pricing formula builds from four transparent layers:
- Labor cost — roles assigned with hours and rates. Rates flow from your role database (or can be overridden per project). The cost rate reflects salary, overhead, and utilization.
- Overhead — your overhead percentage, set at the org level, applied to the base fee automatically. Rent, software, insurance, admin — factored in, not forgotten.
- Contractors & expenses — subcontractor costs and direct expenses, each with configurable markup percentages.
- Profit — your target margin layered on top. The formula reverse-engineers what you need to charge to hit it.
Every layer is visible. You can see exactly how the number was built — base fee, plus overhead, plus profit equals suggested price. Three pricing modes (individual role rates, company blended rate, or hybrid) give you flexibility depending on what you know about the engagement.
Real costs, real margin.
