🚀 The future of project management is here — and it’s strategic, AI-driven, and outcome-focused. In her recent appearance on the Digital Transformation Podcast with Kevin Craine, our Chief Product Officer, Sarah Edwards unpacks how the role of the project manager is rapidly evolving. 🎯 “𝗪𝗲’𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗮𝘀𝗸 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀.” From leveraging AI to automate low-value work, to tapping into both structured and unstructured data for proactive risk detection, Sarah highlights how technology is enabling PMs to make smarter decisions — and drive measurable outcomes. 💡 She also discusses a key industry shift: services firms moving away from time and headcount billing toward value-based pricing — a change that demands a new approach to delivery, tools, and leadership. 📺 Watch this clip for a glimpse of the future.

The professional services industry hasn’t just changed, it’s transformed. Fixed-price projects, subscription models, and value-based delivery are becoming the norm. If your business is still running on siloed systems and outdated processes, the risk isn’t just inefficiency; it’s falling behind. Our new whitepaper, "How to Embrace Change for Greater Operational Efficiency and Profitability," dives into what’s holding firms back — and how to move forward with confidence. You’ll learn: The hidden costs of reactive resourcing Why inconsistent delivery erodes client trust How outdated data is slowing decision-making and growth Every day you wait costs more than you think. The good news? You don’t need to start from scratch. kantata.com/resource/3-way…

When rapid growth meets operational complexity, chaos often follows. That was the case for iA (Innovation Associates), a leader in pharmacy automation that tripled in size in just three years. Disconnected tools and siloed teams made it difficult to manage 400+ resources — until CFO Dave Ristow brought in Kantata. Now, with a unified PSA platform built natively on Salesforce, iA has: ✅ Gained full visibility into project profitability ✅ Boosted service margins by 15% ✅ Aligned over 400 resources across global deployments ✅ Built a scalable foundation for continued growth "Kantata has delivered transformation beyond expectation... I now sleep better at night knowing my entire team is aligned, informed, and executing with clarity." — Dave Ristow, CFO, iA 📈 See how iA brought order to chaos and scaled with confidence: okt.to/eP5aWZ

🏃‍♀️What do running and project leadership have in common? A lot more than you'd think. We’re incredibly proud to see our Chief Product Officer, Sarah Edwards, featured in Forbes this week with her article: “𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗼𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗙𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲? 𝗙𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗮 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿” In this piece, Sarah explores how the best-run projects—like the best runners—aren’t always the fastest out of the gate. They’re the most consistent, the most prepared, and the most aware of when to push versus when to pause. She shares five powerful lessons that connect the world of marathon running with the realities of modern project management—from planning and pacing to performance monitoring and recovery. It’s a must-read for leaders driving complex initiatives in professional services. 👏 Huge kudos to Sarah for continuing to challenge assumptions and advocate for smarter, more sustainable ways to deliver exceptional outcomes. okt.to/Zo0riP
