Progress is an exercise in memory
Which phase is delivered, which is approved, how much can be billed: the answer sits in three files and one conversation.
Industries / Engineering practices
The job runs two years. The fee is collected in phases.
Long engagements, phases to deliver, external professionals and expenses to recharge: the job held together from appointment to fee note, with no parallel spreadsheets.

How it goes today
External collaborators stay off the books
The geologist, the structural engineer, the inspector: real costs that arrive after the fee has already been set.
Advanced expenses stay where they are
Duties, filing fees, site travel. Recharging them means reconstructing twelve months of receipts.
On a two-year job the margin is not lost in one blow: it is spent in phases nobody recounted.
With Hakubase
01
The appointment becomes phases with amounts
Quote items become the job’s phases: each with its fee, its date and its state. What has accrued is visible without asking.
02
People are planned across jobs
Capacity, holidays and closures on one plan. Across ten open jobs you see who is over capacity, before the deadline.
03
Expenses attach to the job
Recorded as they happen, flagged if rechargeable. By fee-note time they are already there.
04
Collaborator fees are computed
Commission rules also cover external collaborators: the share accrues on the job, not on an agreement remembered out loud.
The modules that matter here
The core includes everything: these are the ones you open first.
