Case Study: HKS, Inc. boosts win rates and streamlines project delivery with Deltek Vision

Top architectural firm selects Deltek Vision

HKS, a top-five U.S. architecture firm with more than 935 staff and 30 offices worldwide (best known for projects like Cowboys Stadium), faced a dual challenge: a tougher economic climate that made winning new work harder, and rapid firm growth that exposed gaps in business development, project costing and resource planning. HKS needed end-to-end visibility—historical data, anticipated costs, pricing strategies and resource availability—to make better go/no-go decisions and focus on the opportunities it was best positioned to win.

HKS implemented Deltek Vision as a single, integrated front- and back-office platform, improving CRM lead tracking, tying wins to project and resource planning, and enabling immediate resource reservation. The result was clearer go/no-go analysis, higher win rates, optimized resource utilization, streamlined billing and reporting across international offices, and a leaner back office with stronger visibility into project profitability.
