The past several years have seen a rise in cloud computing. Many A&E and management consulting clients have moved from Vision on-premise (you manage the software) to Deltek First (Deltek manages it for you). The reasons vary – from redeploying IT to improving security and disaster recovery.
Rockwell Group is a 200+ employee, New York-based A&E firm. In 2013, Rockwell moved to the Deltek cloud. This Friday, July 25, we’re hosting a webinar where you’ll have an opportunity to learn more and ask Ken Mok, IT Director, your questions about the process.

Texas-based Govind Development is a fast-growth engineering firm. In fact, it was named the fastest growing A&E firm in the country according to the Inc. 2013 Top 500.
The company was growing so quickly, including doubling its workforce with more significant growth planned, that it couldn’t continue running its business with disparate IT systems for timesheets, reporting, employee data, and payroll.
After a thorough and competitive review of leading ERP systems, including SAP, Govind selected Deltek Vision.
Read the press release here and please welcome Natesh Kumar, CFO, and the Govind team to the Deltek family!

Did you know Vision can integrate directly with Adobe InDesign to produce high quality proposals and qualifications submittals without having to go through Microsoft Word first? Since the release of Vision 7.1, Vision users have been able to create their own InDesign Resumes or Project Profiles using information directly from Vision.
The integration works even better than the Word merge templates because now Vision configuration is transferred and visible in InDesign when designing the templates. This means users no longer have to remember what a field used to be called if their firm has re-labeled it or what their user-defined fields or grids were labeled as when they were configured in Vision.
There are improvements in how preceding and succeeding text is handled and how zero and blank value are handled when merging directly to InDesign. In addition, users have more control over how project experience is formatted in a resume. Merging directly to InDesign from Vision saves time so users can focus on the content rather than the format of their qualifications submittals.
Please let us know if you are using the Vision InDesign integration. Vision clients would love to see what others are doing to take advantage of this great new feature of Vision.
If you aren’t yet using the InDesign integration, you can learn how to use it by taking Deltek University’s Vision Custom Proposals course where trainees will learn how to build InDesign Templates and utilize the Custom Proposals module to generate targeted resumes and project profiles. You can also set up a Consulting Engagement with one of our CRM experts to learn how to take your own InDesign documents and use them as templates for integration with Vision.
