Abstract

From the Publisher:In the beginning, there was ERP. Now, the next software program to revolutionize the service sector - PSA or Professional Services Automation. Professional Services Automation (PSA) software is a new application that replaces ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software in the white collar world of the pro-fessional service firm (i.e. consulting firms, law firms, CPA's, etc.).

Issues that PSA software deal with include; - Project Management - Purchasing - Timesheet Management - Expense Reporting - Document Management - Knowledge Management - Performance Analysis - Integration This book will help the reader navigate the world of PSA solutions. The reader will be able to identify the key concepts of PSA solutions and will give a clear unbiased review of the products and suppliers that are on the market.
