What eTIMS Billing Software does for a architecture firm
eTIMS billing files a compliant tax invoice with KRA on every sale, with no manual entry. For a architecture firm, the value shows up exactly where the work is hardest.
An architecture firm tracks projects, design revisions, building inspections and consultant billing. Architecture margins are strong on design fees and project supervision.
Clients and authorities expect detailed design documents, compliance certificates and cost tracking. Veira handles that as part of the same sale, so compliance is not a separate evening job.
