Our take

Forecast is a business management platform that helps project-based companies automate operations, empower people, and leverage insights to drive business performance and client success.

The company believes every day should be filled with less ad-hoc and administrative work. That freedom creates more room to focus on evolving, improving, and empowering people to think innovatively. Whether it is designing, structuring, acting, or simply steering the company in the right direction.

Forecasts want to enable people to spend time acting from data, instead of spending time collecting it. It will enable people to move from the old world of projects first to a new world of client-first, which in turn will help deliver better results.
