Professional Services Cloud
The Spring 2022 Release introduces enhancements to skills and resource management, services estimating, and project management capabilities in FinancialForce’s Professional Service (PS) Cloud.
Improved resource management is a top priority for service-based businesses as they work to train and retain their workforce. The Spring 2022 Release adds intelligent automation to the staffing process by enabling auto-assignment of resource requests that meet specific criteria, and an expanded capability to model ideal staffing scenarios across a project, opportunity, or region. These enhancements improve PS Cloud’s resource optimization capabilities and enable resource managers to deploy ever larger and more complex teams efficiently and cost-effectively.
FinancialForce continues its commitment to delivering a world-class user experience (UX), and this release focused on enhancements to the project staffing and management experience. A new Work Planner enables simple drag-and-drop assignments, and an enhanced Skills Capacity Dashboard helps influence hiring decisions by providing insight into forward looking skill gaps. Coupled with a new Gantt component that can be added to project layouts, these changes deliver smoother interaction with tasks and assignments and provide managers with both the team and the tools they need to deliver successful outcomes to their clients.
This release expands PS Cloud’s ability to deliver faster and more accurate estimates that eliminate the damaging disconnects between opportunities and projects. Services estimates now have a higher level of precision with Estimate Contours, and greater control around rates and discounting. Deeper sales-to-service automation was also introduced, including a tighter connection into Salesforce and more streamlined resource assignment. Additional precision, control, and automation in service estimates reduces the need for contingencies in proposals and allows for faster revisions, helping services organizations win more work.
