NetSuite ERP for professional services businesses

NetSuite puts delivery and finance on the same platform, so project activity feeds straight into company financials. Project status and financial position stop being two separate stories told by two separate teams. Getting there is the job of our NetSuite implementation services, and the same project-to-finance connection supports professional services delivery inside tech and digital businesses.

Yes. NetSuite supports multiple billing strategies, covering the models most services firms use: fixed price, project milestones, and time and materials. You set up project billing rules once, then bill time and expenses accurately and on schedule. Where revenue is recurring rather than project based, subscription and maintenance billing for SaaS and licence providers covers the SuiteBilling side.

Automating the flow of data between teams lets you monitor profitability live and adjust schedules and resources while the work is still in front of you, rather than running a post mortem once the margin has gone. Splitit describes exactly that: accurate data used to drive the business forward. The same real-time principle drives margin and COGS reporting for wholesale distributors, and where reporting already exists but isn’t trusted, an optimisation review finds out why.

Yes. Resource planning gives you visibility into current workloads and forecasts demand, drawing on archived project data to set realistic budgets and expectations. Detailed reporting shows managers how specific resources affect a project, so they can act early rather than react late. It is the same resource management and project visibility capability tech firms use to keep delivery teams productive.

Usher Group did exactly that, moving from 10 spreadsheets to 1 platform and replacing QuickBooks and Excel, with accurate project tracking as the outcome. Their owner and chairman says it was the people at Annexa that made him comfortable, and then the brand equity. Not-for-profits we work with have made the same move off MYOB and Excel, and our implementation services set out how that transition is planned and delivered.

Not especially. NetSuite OneWorld is built for exactly this: multinational, multi-subsidiary and multi-currency operations managed from one platform. Splitit runs global operations spanning 6 geographies on NetSuite with AnnexaConnect and SuiteSuccess, the same footing as global multi-entity operations in tech and digital and cross-border commerce for retail brands.

By tightening the things that cause them. Advanced reporting, preconfigured templates matched to the project’s requirements and milestone tracking together lower the chance of scope creep, budget overruns and resource overutilisation. We apply the same discipline to our own delivery: dedicated project managers keep you looped in on scope, time and budget throughout an implementation.

A great deal. NetSuite supports customisations, integrations, automated workflows and advanced dashboards, and Annexa designs and delivers connected, industry-specific ERP solutions for professional services firms. Where configuration isn’t enough, our NetSuite development team builds it, and apps and extensions built by Annexa cover common gaps like time tracking and automated statement emails.

Most services firms start with Oracle NetSuite ERP as the core, SuiteSuccess for a fast industry-specific go-live, OneWorld if you are multi-entity or multi-currency, SuiteBilling for subscription billing, Bank Feeds for reconciliation, and SuiteAnalytics, Analytics Warehouse and Planning & Budgeting for reporting and forecasting. Which of those you actually need is settled during implementation scoping, with iPaaS and integration services connecting whatever you are keeping.

Industry fit plus delivery credibility. Professional services businesses rely on Annexa to design and deliver connected, industry-specific ERP solutions that streamline operations and support faster decision-making. Behind that sit 30+ years in operation, 200+ NetSuite projects and 65+ in-house consultants, developers and architects, and our implementation references include REA Group, ATOM and Cargo Crew.
