Projects vs. proposals

Screen reference​

EVX Software supports using project records during the proposal stage. A proposal is a project that is not active yet. When work is awarded, the same record can be moved forward instead of recreated.

What you can do​

  • Use proposal stage to capture early project information.
  • Add expected billing clients, rate schedules, and project details during proposal creation.
  • When the proposal becomes active, update the contract stage instead of duplicating the project.
  • Templates can create project plans automatically when configured.

Environmental consulting example​

A proposal for a wetland delineation project can later become the active project without losing the initial scope, budget, or planned tasks.
