  • Track effort against budget in real time
  • Document scope changes and extra work clearly
  • Spot team bottlenecks before they become a problem

Frequently asked questions.

With TimeTac, your team tracks time directly on site – using the app or a terminal. It works offline too, syncing automatically the moment you’re back online. Time data is available immediately, ready for reporting and billing.
Yes. With project time tracking built in, TimeTac is designed for project-based work – making it a strong fit for both architects and engineers. Hours can be logged cleanly against projects, project phases and tasks, so effort, proof of work and billable time stay traceable at every stage.
Yes. With TimeTac, work hours can be assigned directly to projects and project phases. This is especially valuable for architecture and engineering firms, since it means work is documented in a structured way – making it easier to use later for proof of work, client billing and project analysis.
Yes. TimeTac is a strong fit for engineering firms because projects, tasks, teams and locations can all be managed centrally. This gives engineering firms a clear view of time spent, capacity and project budgets – even when multiple people or departments are working on a project at the same time.
Yes. In TimeTac, time entries can be adjusted as part of defined approval processes. Changes stay documented and traceable. This is particularly important for architecture firms, where entries often need to be refined, supplemented or reviewed internally after the fact.
Yes. TimeTac scales from small teams to large construction projects with multiple crews working in parallel. Role and permission management keeps responsibilities clear, even as teams grow.
Yes. With TimeTac, your team can log time flexibly via app or browser – in the office, on the go, or on site. This makes it a great fit for architects and engineers who move between design work, meetings, site visits and project oversight, without being tied to a desk to track their time.
Digital time tracking reduces manual effort and creates visibility into projects, effort and capacity. Instead of paper trails, spreadsheets and after-the-fact corrections, time data is structured and available immediately. For architecture and engineering firms, that means less admin, better project control and a reliable foundation for proof of work, billing and reporting.
