Time tracking for 5 architectural phases of design

Stay on budget and avoid scope creep with automated time tracking

1. Pre-design / research

The pre-design stage includes research before any architectural design process can begin. Whether you’re carrying out zoning analysis, working on project budgeting, or putting together a project schedule for your team, every minute of your billable time should be recorded. Automatic time tracking is there to make sure nothing slips through the cracks.

Helpful when going through emails, or jumping between tasks.

2. Schematic design

Schematic design typically accounts for 15% of all billable architect time on a project. This phase includes a lot of communication with the owner, i.e. meetings, emails, and calls that all need to be timed in order to bill the client fairly for architectural services. Memtime displays your day in a chronological timeline. From there, you can instantly create time entries for billing.

3. Design development

This phase is about 20% of all billable time on a project, which makes it crucial to time all activities correctly. Because design development entails a lot of revisions, it’s easy to lose track of time and end up with unrealistic utilization rates. With automatic time tracking, you can focus on finalizing interior and exterior design knowing that your billables are tracked with precision.

No need to start and stop timers - which I always forget to do.

4. Construction documents

The construction documents phase accounts for 40% of all billable time on a project. An architectural firm will typically produce custom drawings for each type of work, e.g. electrical, concrete, etc. Memtime tracks your time in documents and files down to the minute so you can attribute all work correctly to the right projects and clients.

5. Bidding

While the owner is selecting the best contractor for the job, the architect’s role is to consult and advise on the best course of action. This phase includes a lot of emails, DMs, and calls that can be tricky to track, especially when scattered throughout the day. With Memtime, you can remember every email you sent and every call you took from the client.

It detects when I am away from my laptop and helps me track calls.
