Built for Project‑Driven Reality

Project‑based firms operate differently than product companies. Revenue is earned through people and projects, margins are managed at the project level, and success depends on aligning delivery, resourcing, and financials in real time.

Deltek ERP is purpose‑built for that reality. It connects projects, people, and financials so leaders can understand performance, manage risk, and plan with confidence.

Aktion ensures Deltek ERP works the way your firm actually operates, not just on paper, but day to day.

 

What Sets Aktion Apart

Aktion reduces ERP risk and increases long‑term value by pairing Deltek expertise with a disciplined delivery and support model.

  • Deep specialization in architecture, engineering, and professional services
  • Proven Lean Implementation Process designed to reduce disruption
  • Ongoing optimization and advisory services beyond go‑live
  • Support for modern cloud environments and legacy Deltek platforms

Our role doesn’t end at implementation. We partner with you to ensure Deltek ERP continues delivering value as your firm grows and changes.

For organizations managing larger teams, multiple offices, or more complex projects, Deltek ERP includes Vantagepoint. It connects CRM, project delivery, resource planning, and financials into one integrated system.

Common Challenges Vantagepoint Solves

  • Limited insight into project performance and margins
  • Disconnected CRM, accounting, and project data

Aktion goes beyond implementation by extending Vantagepoint with:
  • Project planning optimization
  • Automated billing workflows
  • Executive dashboards and analytics
  • Fleet and asset tracking enhancements
  • Custom tools built for real-world A/E operations
We knew the data migration would be easier and that Deltek was committed to creating a next‑generation solution. That trust in Deltek and Aktion made all the difference when we hit the button to go live.
