Over and over, we’ve heard customers tell us about getting stuck in a quoting nightmare.
Drafting a single proposal takes days. SOWs look different every time. Sales moves forward with deals that make Delivery say, “Who signed off on that?” Even when you do find a solution, it takes months to implement—and is either too bloated to navigate, or not powerful enough to actually deliver quotes that reflect your services and billing logic. And almost no quoting solutions connect back into your delivery systems, leaving you with yet another silo.
Manual quoting introduces the possibility of errors, but it also just takes time (a commodity most firms don’t have to spare). And when mistakes do happen during quoting, they can turn serious, with scope creep eroding margins and teams breaking their back to make up for off-base expectations.
We’ve been working on an easier way to turn around accurate quotes, with a tool that’s flexible, powerful, and nimble enough to let your team move quickly. Today, we’re excited to announce that BigTime Quotes is finally here.
Starting today, BigTime Quotes is ready to help your team sell smarter and faster, with your revenue goals embedded into every proposal. Built directly into BigTime Delivery, BigTime Quotes gives services firms the ability to scope, price, and launch projects from a single, connected workflow.
Let’s dig into what’s possible with BigTime Quotes.
Move Faster and Win Work
One of the most common challenges we hear about quoting is that it’s painfully slow.
BigTime Quotes solves this problem by getting rid of friction between your tools and teams. Here’s how:
- The Quote Builder Wizard pulls from your data and template catalogs to create quotes in just minutes, using your pre-approved guardrails and language.
- BigTime Quotes automatically applies rate cards and billing methods, based on the relevant client and project.
- Once the proposal is created, you can manually override any information that needs to be adjusted. Our automations are powerful, but you always get the final say.
- You deliver a perfect quote and win the deal! 🥳
- Finally, your proposal automatically flows through your approval chain and into your BigTime Delivery platform, where it becomes a live project.
Collaborate Closely With Your Entire Team
BigTime Quotes is a collaborative platform, designed to help Sales, Delivery, and Finance leaders work together from a single source of truth.
How this comes to life:
- Sales, Delivery, and Finance all work from the same platform, staying in sync at every client touchpoint.
- New deals easily get quick sign-off with approval flows that automatically move between everyone who needs oversight.
- Sales stay flexible during key conversations without the risk of underpricing.
Go From Proposal to Project In One Platform
Since BigTime Quotes is built directly into BigTime Delivery, you can convert an approved quote into a live project at the click of a button.
The BigTime suite is interconnected to take your projects all the way from quote to cash. What this looks like during quoting:
- Approved quotes turn into live projects in minutes.
- Client and project information stays consistent across your platform, reducing human error.
- Project details are entered once instead of repeated across multiple systems.
- Teams regain admin time lost on data entry and redirect it to billable work.

- Create SOWs and proposals that actually match how you talk about your business.
- Apply the right rates, resources, and roles from day one.
- Adopt and implement quickly, so you don’t waste time waiting to move onto a clunky platform.
