Keep your specialists chargeable across every phase
Engineering and architecture work runs long, spans disciplines, and leans on a handful of scarce specialists everyone wants at once. Alloxy gives you one live plan across phases, disciplines, and offices — so the right people land on the right stage, and your best people stay chargeable instead of idle or double-booked.
What makes staffing here hard
Long projects, shifting phases
A job runs for months across concept, design, and delivery, each phase needing a different mix of disciplines. Staffing it in a spreadsheet means redrawing the whole plan every time a phase slips.
Scarce specialists, wanted everywhere at once
Your structural lead or your one geotechnical specialist is promised to three projects and the bid you're chasing. Who they're actually committed to — and whether you can take on more work — is impossible to see at a glance.
Feast or famine on utilisation
The same specialists swing between overloaded and idle as phases move. Both cost you: burnout on one side, lost chargeable hours on the other, and no early warning of either.
How Alloxy helps
One live plan across phases and disciplines
See every project's phases and the disciplines each one needs on a single timeline, so a stage never stalls because the right discipline wasn't free — and a slipping phase doesn't quietly break three other plans.
Chargeability you can see months out
Set future demand against capacity by discipline, so shortages and idle time both surface phases ahead — while there's still room to hire, rebalance, or shape which bids you go after.
Reallocate in minutes when a phase moves
Alloxy matches by role and skill, not just job title, and shows who's free, who's overbooked, and what a change costs. When a phase shifts, replanning takes minutes rather than a morning.

The payoff
Better planning means fewer idle specialists, fewer double-bookings, and more of your experts' time on chargeable work — where engineering and architecture firms quietly win or lose their margin.
