Payroll Without the Busywork 

Running payroll shouldn’t feel like running a project of its own. With CORE Payroll, powered by Gusto, you can process payroll, pay your team, and handle all tax filings without ever leaving the system you already use to manage projects and billing. 

Whether you’re looking to save time, improve accuracy, or reduce compliance headaches, CORE Payroll helps A/E firms focus on what matters most: designing, building, and serving clients. 

We’ll also leave ample time for Q&A, so you can get your specific payroll questions answered live. 

Guest Speakers:  

  • Matt Cooper, BQE's Chief Executive Officer
  • Chris Vernon, VP of Product Management
  • Faisal Syed, Director of Product Management

During this session, you'll learn how integrated payroll can benefit your firm: 

1

Timesheet hours and pay rates flow automatically into payroll (ie: no manual re-entry). 

2

Payroll totals post instantly to CORE’s general ledger, giving you up-to-date financials.

3

Real-time sync with Gusto reduces errors, shortens payroll cycles, and saves hours every pay period. 

4

Job costing data updates instantly, so you see the true cost of every project as it happens.

Billing Smarter

Getting Paid Faster

Wednesday, January 14, 2026

1pm ET | 11am PT

Manual billing and collections slow cash flow, frustrate staff, and drain time that should be spent on projects or strategy.

This session will show you how to modernize your billing process and reduce collection headaches using standardized billing workflows and electronic payment processes. 

You’ll learn how to streamline invoice templates, automate delivery, and make it easier for clients to pay—so cash hits your account faster and your team spends less time chasing payments. The webinar will also cover best practices for aligning billing cycles with client expectations, tracking key financial metrics like Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) and Accounts Receivable aging, and rolling out ePayments to improve client experience. 

Join us to discover how smarter billing leads to stronger cash flow, happier clients, and a more resilient firm heading into 2026.
