TBS LLC Announces Q2 Launch for Claritas for Costpoint, PM Self-Service Reporting SaaS.

April 7, 2011 – The TBS Claritas reporting suite for Deltek products continues to grow, with Claritas for Costpoint set to launch this quarter.

“Central to our mission as the Enterprise Cloud Hosting leader for Deltek is to enhance the Deltek experience,” says Joe Jezior, Founder and Chief Operating Officer of TBS (Technology and Business Solutions LLC). “Real-time, user-friendly, self-service reporting for Project Managers in a Costpoint environment is now at the top of the list.”

Claritas was launched in October of 2010 and has been lauded by new and long-time Deltek GCS Premier, Time & Expense, and Budgeting & Planning users as the best, most approachable and accessible reporting tool for Deltek. Claritas serves posted, unposted and unprocessed contract cost, fee and budget data from Costpoint or GCS, T&E and B&P directly into a self-service dashboard geared just for Project Managers. Graphical “stoplights” provide PMs with an instant read on contract period of performance progress. Contract accounting data is organized in a “panoramic view” providing multi-project, single-project, and line-item details side by side (not in multiple screens or report print-outs). Email and text alerts proactively signal PMs when key contract cost and other milestones have been met.

“Now it’s time for Costpoint,” says TBS Chief Executive Officer and Founder, Jay Ethridge. “Deltek Costpoint is evolving with Costpoint 7 on the horizon, and it’s always our mandate as a technology company to evolve with it – actually to stay ahead of that evolutionary curve. Claritas for Costpoint is an insightful reporting tool that empowers Project Managers to capture, understand and control their contract data, whether they're running CP6 now or CP7 later.”

Says Jezior, “For Costpoint clients hosted in the TBS Enterprise Cloud the enhancement of Costpoint with Claritas and Costpoint 7 will be seamless. We simply turn on Claritas in our Cloud and Costpoint PMs are ready to go. We’ve been testing our CP7 Cloud Platform for months. When our hosted clients are ready to make that switch, they’ll be live in Costpoint 7 in 48 hours.”
