One System From Lead to Invoice
We consolidate time, billing, project accounting, and revenue recognition on NetSuite, so you can see real project margin without stitching reports together.
Utilization, billing, and revenue are one workflow — or they're four tools and a spreadsheet.
Handoffs, project margin, revenue recognition, and what the platform really costs are the four places services firms lose the most time. Here's what changes in each when the whole project lifecycle runs in one system.
- HANDOFFS
Time, billing, and PM live in separate tools.
Nothing syncs between them, so someone rekeys the same numbers and month-end becomes a reconciliation project.
How We Solve ItNetSuite Projects, task budgets, and job costing run as one workflow, so hours, expenses, and billing roll into real project margin.
- MARGIN
Profitability lands after the project closes.
Utilization and project margin sit in spreadsheets that are stale by the time you open them.
How We Solve ItDashboards show billable utilization, WIP, and profitability in real time — by project, by client, and by consultant.
- REVENUE
ASC 606 is being handled by hand.
T&M, fixed-fee, and milestone work each need different revenue treatment, and spreadsheets are where the errors hide.
How We Solve ItT&M, fixed-fee, milestone, and retainer billing run natively, with ASC 606 revenue recognition configured so close isn't a rebuild.
- THE PARTNER
The real bill shows up after you sign.
The license is just the start — connectors, outside help, and renewal increases stack on top of it.
How We Solve ItA Premier partner configures Projects correctly the first time, then stays on through managed services instead of handing you off.
Know what a project earned while you can still change it.
We scope a services build around your billing mix, your utilization targets, and your revenue recognition rules — not a template. The same senior consultants who scope it run the build through go-live.
A 30-minute review of how your projects actually bill. No pitch.

Before You Choose a Professional Services NetSuite Partner
Honestly, it's project accounting first. NetSuite Projects is strong on budgets, time, billing, and margin, and lighter on day-to-day task management than a Mavenlink or Monday. For most services firms that trade is worth it, because time, resourcing, and billing finally live with the financials. We configure Projects around how your teams actually run work, and connect a dedicated PM tool when you need one.
Go with a partner. The NetSuite user community is consistent about this: NetSuite's own professional services team is a common source of stalled and failed projects. A Premier partner like Luxent configures Projects, revenue recognition, and reporting correctly the first time, and stays with you after go-live.
More than the license line, and we're upfront about that. Connectors, integrations, and renewals add up, and renewal increases are real. We scope the full picture before you commit, and our managed services pricing is published, so you can see the ongoing number instead of guessing at it.
All of them, natively. We set up billing rules per engagement type and tie them to ASC 606 revenue recognition, so approved time and milestones become invoices and booked-to-recognized revenue stays clean through an audit.
Core financials and project accounting usually go live in about three months with our LUXSmart method, moving through Planning, Discovery, Design, Build, Deploy, and Optimize. Scope like multi-entity consolidation or heavy customization adds time, and we flag that in Discovery rather than at go-live.
We had too many systems that didn't talk to each other, and it was getting harder and harder to get the information we needed to run the business and make critical decisions.
Who we bring in on a professional services rollout
Revenue recognition, tax and compliance, payments and collections, payroll — the parts of a rollout that belong with a specialist. These are the vendors we keep working relationships with, and we bring the right one in when your build needs it.
