Customer story - How BAE Systems tracks their numbers with Financial Manager
BAE Systems provides some of the world’s most advanced, technology-led defense, aerospace, and security solutions.
Challenge
BAE System's strong focus on project cost control led them to implement earned value management (EVM) and Financial Manager.
Before, their project managers weren’t using data held in Jira but relying on status reports from team leads. With projects involving multiple engineering teams delivering separate work packages, monthly project finance status reviews became difficult, and it was a challenge for the project managers to understand when costs were overrunning.
Solution
Financial Manager made a difference right away. The app has saved project managers time preparing for the monthly project reviews as they no longer have to generate earned value graphs manually. It has also made the cost/schedule trend more visible to both the development and project teams, empowering them to take early corrective action.
The team was able to enter their resourcing information to get a future actual projection. Then, Financial Manager provided a forecast of the projected completion date and costs for the program by extrapolating the earned value metric.
Meanwhile the ‘portfolio’ feature enables each engineering team to manage their own projects in Financial Manager (where they are called ‘folios’). These folios are aggregated in the portfolio view at the program level, offering managers a broad insight into all the engineering teams’ work.
Testimonial
I saw the potential of Financial Manager by Tempo, so I tried it on a complex major program. I liked the way it reused existing issue backlogs to create historical earned value and clearly shows progress versus budget.

Yes! We encourage you to access a free trial of Financial Manager to explore its features and see how it could help your team. Simply click here to begin your trial.
Project hours can be approved directly in Financial Manager, where project owners can verify the hours worked by their team on the projects that they manage. This simplifies the process for a project owner to approve logged hours and for team leads to acknowledge the validity of the time spent on their projects.
The project portfolios feature can facilitate the work of managing multiple projects aimed at achieving the same objectives. Projects can be grouped together in a portfolio to gain insight into how a portfolio is performing based on the aggregated budget, cost, revenue, and scope of the projects in the portfolio.
Currently, customers need Timesheets in order for Financial Manager to function since it pulls worklog data to assign labor costs. Recently, an integration has been added between Financial Manager and Structure where users can use Structure to visualize, track, and manage the work of multiple teams or projects, and then track costs and revenue of the structure in a Financial Manager project.
