Dulles, VA, Jan. 26, 2022 – Unanet, the leading provider of project-based ERP for the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry, announced today that Wilkus Architects, a leading architecture firm with projects throughout North America, has selected Unanet ERP AE to help it better manage invoicing, employee time, forecast staffing needs, and financial decisions.

Wilkus Architects is a family-owned company founded in 1990 that specializes in retail, commercial, restaurant, and hospitality design and has quickly grown from approximately 30 to 50 employees over the last two years with more than 400 projects a year. This growth and a review of their current invoicing and projection systems exposed the need for a more streamlined, less cumbersome ERP system, especially for accounting, financial management, and forecasting of labor and projects.

“We received excellent referrals for Unanet from engineering and architect firms that gave us confidence in Unanet’s capabilities and customer service,” said Lindsey Wilkus, Wilkus Architects’ Chief Financial Officer. “As we continue to grow, we are excited about Unanet’s ability to provide us with clear and smart business reporting and forecasting across a multitude of variables that we look at to help us forecast and scale effectively.”

Once implemented, Unanet will give Wilkus Architects a variety of benefits it needs to succeed in growing its business including:

  • Simplifying time and data entry
  • Elimination of cumbersome and duplicative invoicing practices across the business and across projects in different states
  • Specialized reporting and views of business volume by project, state and client.
