Time registration for architectural firms

Architectural firms are losing control over projects due to a lack of insight into hours spent versus budget. TimeChimp gives you real-time control - from VO to delivery, without the Excel chaos.

How TimeChimp works for architecture firms

  • Automatic alerts in case of imminent exceedances
  • Direct link between design hours and project profitability

You have questions. We have answers.

Check out our most frequently asked questions here. If you need further assistance, we're here to help.

How do you deal with the DNR and SR conditions?

TimeChimp is flexible enough to work within the DNR/SR framework. You can set phases, tasks, and budgets according to these standards. Our Dutch support knows these regulations and helps you with the right setup. Not an American tool where you have to explain what the Quality Assurance Act is.

Is there integration with BIM/CAD software or other architectural tools?

We do not integrate directly with CAD software, but with all common project management and accounting tools that architecture firms use. Think of AFAS, Exact, but also Jira. You can even create custom links via our API.

Can we keep our existing project numbering?

Of course. Use your own project coding, WBS structure, or whatever you're used to. TimeChimp adapts to your system, not the other way around. You can even set up automatic numbering in your own format.

How does TimeChimp work with different fee structures?

Whether you work with a percentage of the construction price, fixed phase amounts or an hourly invoice - TimeChimp supports it all. You can even combine different methods within one project. For example: fixed amount for the design, subsequent calculation for additional work.

Can we use TimeChimp for both project hours and general business hours?

Yes, you can keep separate billable project hours and internal hours (acquisition, office meetings, training). This way, you can see exactly what your productivity and declarability are. Perfect for commissioning hours that are not directly billable but are important for your business operations.
