Client-facing pros spend 30% of week on admin, new research finds

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

New research from Unit4 indicates that over 25% of client-facing professionals dedicate at least 30% of their workweek to administrative tasks. Nearly half of these professionals frequently find themselves correcting timesheets, a process that contributes to overtime for tasks like reconciliation and timeline management. As workloads are expected to become more complex for 60% of these employees, the pressure to streamline these processes is intensifying. AI

IMPACT Streamlining administrative tasks could free up professionals to focus on higher-value work, potentially impacting productivity and project management.
