StaffLedger Margin Forecast — know your margins before the month begins
StaffLedger Margin Forecast turns your staffing plan into a monthly revenue, cost and gross margin forecast — per project, per account, per portfolio and for your whole company.
Free IT services margin forecast Excel template
Plan revenue, cost and gross margin in a formula-based workbook, then import your employee master. No signup required.

Built for how service companies actually plan
Not another spreadsheet. A forecasting engine that understands working days, rate changes, allocations and onboarding gaps.
True monthly forecasting
Revenue and cost computed from real working days — weekdays minus holidays — with hourly cost and bill rates, allocation % and separate billing %.
Effective-dated rates
Cost and bill rates carry a start date, so promotions, increments and inflation are reflected automatically in the months they take effect.
Staffing & capacity
Map people to projects in bulk, model onboarding gaps with separate cost-start and billing-start dates, and track candidates in the pipeline.
Roll-ups that matter
Project → account → portfolio → company. Gross margin on revenue, per month and in aggregate, exactly how leadership reviews it.
Excel in, insight out
Import employees and bill rates from spreadsheets in overwrite or add-only mode. No painful re-keying of master data.
RAID log built in
Track risks, assumptions, issues and dependencies next to the numbers they affect — with owners, ETAs and days open.
