evergreen: Cloud-based AEC ERP software that helps you run projects with clarity
Architecture and engineering (AEC) firms lose margin not because of lack of work, but because fee burn, scope change, and delivery risk are hard to see until it’s too late. evergreen is the project-based ERP for architecture and engineering firms that gives you one connected platform to plan work realistically, deliver with control, and understand financial outcomes while projects are still in motion.
One system for pursuits, projects, resources, billing, and financials
At the heart of the Microsoft Industry Cloud for Architecture and Engineering Firms is the evergreen AEC ERP software; an integrated cloud platform that unifies pursuits, project planning, resource management, delivery tracking, billing, and financial control. Built on Microsoft Dynamics 365, evergreen connects every function across sales, delivery, finance, and talent to improve utilization, protect margins, and scale delivery with confidence.
With native AI capabilities embedded in core workflows and AI agents that support planning, time and expense capture, billing accuracy, and project controls, evergreen helps teams work faster with fewer manual effort. By centralizing operations in one connected system, evergreen reduces handoff gaps, improves visibility into scope and fee burn, and gives project leaders and finance teams real-time clarity from pursuit through project close.
Scale without losing control of fee burn and scope change
As AEC firms grow, complexity rises faster than visibility. What works at a smaller scale breaks down when projects multiply, teams spread across offices, and delivery models diversify.
As a project-based ERP for architecture and engineering firms, evergreen addresses the core issues that erode profitability and increase risk:
Fee burn and realization issues that surface only after margins are impacted
Scope changes that are tracked informally and priced too late
Utilization gaps across disciplines, offices, and regions that reduce billable capacity
Billing delays caused by manual progress tracking and approvals
Limited insight into project health while work is still underway
Fragmented systems that separate delivery decisions from financial reality
Bridge the gap between proposal budgets and actual project performance
Architecture and engineering projects are rarely linear. Scope evolves, staffing shifts, and timelines adjust. evergreen maintains continuity across the entire lifecycle so firms stay in control as conditions change.
Opportunities convert into structured projects. Proposal assumptions flow into budgets and plans. Delivery progress updates forecasts, billing plans, and financial performance in real time. Changes to scope, staffing, or schedule are reflected immediately so teams understand the impact before margins are lost. Firm leaders see margin risk weeks earlier, not at the month-end. Project teams operate with financial awareness. Finance teams no longer wait for month-end to see risk.
Align every team to the same project and financial truth
evergreen brings every function together around the project lifecycle, so pursuits, delivery, finance, and people teams work from the same data and priorities. Decisions made in one area immediately reflect across planning, execution, and financial outcomes.
