A fast-growing consulting firm was running a $45M+ project portfolio on spreadsheets — margins calculated weeks after project completion, utilization managed manually, and no mechanism to flag a low-profitability deal before it was too late to act. Quantum built a Project Profitability Command Center connecting Sales Cloud to their project management system via MuleSoft, with Tableau dashboards giving real-time visibility into margin, utilization, and DSO — and "Margin Gates" requiring VP approval before any low-profitability deal could proceed. The result: 12% improvement in average project margin, 20% reduction in DSO, and real-time visibility into every project in the portfolio — for the first time.
