KEEL freezes the staffing forecast once an engagement starts, so any change needs a reason, notifies the managing director, lead and finance, and is saved as a numbered revision. Team members submit weekly timesheets, the lead approves or rejects each row, and on time-and-materials work the client approves the week in the portal.
An Excel-style week by engagement, plus admin, leave and sick time. Submitting is signing.
A warning appears at 80 percent of authorized hours, before the overrun rather than after.
Approve, reject with a required reason, or question each row.
On time-and-materials work, the lead's approval sends the week to the client portal for row-by-row approval.
Contractors attach the client's own time record where the engagement requires it.
Drafted from the numbers, edited by the lead, optionally approved by the managing director, and published to the client.
Weeks already delivered are greyed and locked as actuals.
Changing the plan needs an unfreeze with a reason, and everyone accountable is notified.
Each refreeze is a numbered revision, so you can see how the plan moved and why.
No. Team members see their time and their remaining allocation, never money.
Time to approve, SOWs and change requests to sign, milestones to accept, status reports and their own uploaded documents. Never cost, margin or internal notes.
The lead rejects it with a reason or raises a question on that row; the team member corrects and resubmits.
Yes, through an unfreeze with a reason. The change is saved as a numbered revision and the managing director, lead and finance are notified.
Professional services automation from SOW to invoice, with margin that drills to the timesheet line.
Every billable line names what is blocking it, and leakage is counted in dollars: over-cap retainer hours, overruns and unsupported time.
Sections, a weekly staffing grid and the SOW's own rate sheet, approved by the engagement lead, managing director and finance before anything reaches the client.
Run one engagement's week through KEEL and see every approval in one place.
