Built for a Specific Kind
of Organization. Here is How to Know.
xpdOffice is not general-purpose business software. It was built inside a government contractor, refined through 25 years of real contract delivery, and designed for organizations where projects, contracts, compliance, and finance are inseparable.
Recognize Your Organization Here.
Each description below is written in the language of the operational problems that drive organizations to xpdOffice. If you recognize your week in one of these descriptions, you are in the right place.
Government Contractors (Federal, Defense, Civilian)
Your week includes DCAA compliance, CLIN ceiling tracking, indirect rate management, and audit preparation that never quite ends. You manage contracts that fund your business but also constrain it — with funding releases, modification cycles, and period of performance deadlines that don't wait for your month-end close.
xpdOffice was built inside a government contractor. This is the category it was designed for first.
Explore the GovCon SolutionIT and Technology Services Firms
You staff technical talent against contracts and task orders, track utilization across multiple programs simultaneously, and manage a workforce where clearance levels, labor categories, and bill rates are as operationally important as headcount. Your margin lives in the gap between what you bill and what your fully loaded labor costs.

Your projects are your products. You need to know — in real time — whether each engagement is profitable, whether your utilization is where it needs to be, and whether the pipeline behind your current book of work is strong enough to sustain your overhead.
Explore the Professional Services SolutionEngineering and Technical Services Firms
You manage complex multi-phase projects with subcontractors, equipment, and direct labor costs that need to be tracked at the task level to protect your margin. Your project managers need financial visibility at the project level — budget vs. actual, burn rate, EAC.

You place cleared and uncleared talent on government programs and manage labor compliance across multiple client sites and contract vehicles. LCAT alignment, timesheet integrity, and SCA wage determination compliance are daily operational requirements.

Your services division runs on project-based delivery — implementations, integrations, managed services, training. But your financial systems were built for the product side of the business. You need a system designed for delivery organizations, not retrofitted.

Growth Trajectory?
xpdOffice scales from growing contractors establishing their compliance infrastructure to enterprise organizations replacing legacy ERPs. Here is an honest assessment of where each stage fits.
Getting Compliant. Building the Foundation.
You won your first significant prime contracts or you are approaching the size where DCAA compliance is no longer optional. You need to establish your compliance infrastructure without a 12-month ERP implementation.
Best fit: xpdOffice CORE. DCAA-compliant timekeeping, contract/CLIN management, and project tracking — operational in days.
The Core xpdOffice Sweet Spot.
You are managing multiple prime contracts. Your finance team is doing manual reconciliation. You have outgrown your current stack but you are not ready for — and cannot afford — a Deltek implementation.
Best fit: xpdOffice GROWTH. Unified contracts, finance, compliance, HR, and xpdAI forecasting in one system.
Replacing a Fragmented Stack or a Legacy System.
You are likely running Unanet, a QuickBooks-plus-add-ons stack, or an early Deltek implementation that has been heavily customized. You need AI-native forecasting, a unified data model, and a system that grows with your portfolio.
Best fit: xpdOffice GROWTH or ENTERPRISE depending on contract complexity. Implementation completes in under 30 days.
Be Honest With Yourself Here.
At this scale, xpdOffice is a fit if you run a fragmented legacy stack or a manual operation costing you millions in audit risk. However, if you have a deeply embedded Deltek Costpoint implementation with a dedicated IT team, the switching cost may outweigh the gain.
Best fit: xpdOffice ENTERPRISE — or an honest conversation about whether switching makes sense at your scale.
One System. Seven Decision-Makers Who Depend on It Daily.
Every Command Center in xpdOffice is designed for a specific role with a specific operational reality. Find yours.
CEO / President
You should be able to assess the health of your entire business — margin, backlog, utilization, cash, compliance — in five minutes each morning.
Executive Command CenterCFO / Controller
You should know whether your indirect rates are drifting before it affects your billings, not after your year-end actuals force it.
Finance Command CenterContracts Manager
You should get an alert when a CLIN ceiling hits 80% burn — not discover the overrun when you pull the monthly report.
Contracts Command CenterProgram / Project Manager
You should be able to see your project's EAC, LCAT compliance status, and subcontractor burn in one view.
Projects Command CenterHR / Workforce Lead
You should know which cleared employees have reinvestigation dates coming up and which bench employees can be deployed.
HR Command CenterBD / Capture Manager
You should be able to see your weighted pipeline, B&P spend vs. win rate, and recompete risk in one dashboard.

We would rather tell you now than after a sales process that was never going to produce the right outcome.
You Are a Strong Fit If...
- Government contractors or project-based services firms managing multiple active contracts simultaneously
- Currently running on QuickBooks, a fragmented tool stack, or an aging ERP that requires manual reconciliation
- Need DCAA-compliant timekeeping, real-time contract/CLIN visibility, and indirect rate monitoring
- Want AI-driven operational intelligence grounded in actual contract data — not a generic chatbot
- Need to be operational in days or weeks — not months or years
- 10 to 500 person organization where the CEO, CFO, and contracts manager feel the pain of disconnected systems
You Are Probably Not a Fit If...
- —500+ employees with a deeply embedded Deltek Costpoint implementation and a dedicated IT team
- —Need a platform that is already FedRAMP authorized today (we are currently in process/alignment)
- —Product manufacturer, retail, e-commerce, or consumer goods company (we are built for services)
- —Need a full payroll processing system (we integrate with experts like ADP/Paychex)
- —Pre-award with no active contracts yet — come back when your first prime is in hand
