Case Study: SovTech improves profitability and resource planning with Primetric

How SovTech improved its profitability with a bird’s eye view of all the finances

SovTech, a software development company based in South Africa, was struggling with fragmented and inefficient financial and resource planning. Using disconnected tools like Google Sheets, Harvest, and Jira led to a lack of visibility into employee availability, project profitability, and accurate financial forecasting. Project Manager Oliver Green faced immense challenges in managing 170 people across 25 projects. To overcome this, SovTech turned to the vendor Primetric for its project and resource management platform.

Primetric provided a single, integrated solution that combined data from Jira and Harvest, offering SovTech a comprehensive, real-time view of finances and resource allocation. The implementation enabled precise capacity planning, utilization management, and accurate financial reporting. This resulted in significantly improved profitability for SovTech's operations. As the company grew to over 220 people and 40 projects, Primetric's tools gave managers the bird's eye view they needed to make better decisions, optimize budgets, and prevent cost overruns.
