Release Update: June 4, 2025

June’s update brings smarter staffing with BigTime Foresight’s new Demand Coverage Report, a redesigned mobile home screen, and Early Access to BigTime’s updated navigation. You’ll also see fixes and improvements across the platform based on your feedback.

What's New -

BigTime Foresight
Demand Coverage Report

BigTime Foresight’s new Demand Coverage Report helps you spot staffing gaps early, so you can act before they impact delivery. This view allows you to quickly compare project demand to available capacity by role, and decide where to hire, shift, or reprioritize.

Key Features: 

  Planning Views: by Role to assess staffing levels, or by Month to forecast trends.
  Clear Visuals: Quickly view demand vs. capacity, fulfilled hours, and gaps with clear data visualizations.
  Detailed Actions: Drill into roles, tasks, fulfillment %, and available hours.
  Flexible Filters: Filter by skill, project, department, or location; save and reuse views.
  Assignment Status Control: Include Active, Reserved, or Draft assignments for broader planning.

Put the right people in the right roles before gaps become risks. The Demand Coverage Report gives you the visibility you need to plan with confidence.

As a bonus, you can also check out an interactive demo for the latest Demand Enhancements and Custom Attributes improvements:

BigTime Mobile

A Faster Start to Your Day

We’ve redesigned the mobile home screen to surface what matters most. Instantly view your time and expense summaries, and use new quick actions to track time or log entries with fewer steps.

  New Design: Includes quick-glance overviews for time and expenses, plus fast access to common actions.
  Timer Updates: Reset and discard options, improved layout, and a live timer display streamline time tracking.
  Enhanced Usability: Improvements include validation for unsaved time on iOS.
