The order-to-cash cycle for the project business, end to end. A quote becomes a booking, a booking becomes delivered work, delivered work becomes an invoice, and an invoice becomes cash — 185 days from quote to cash, with $981M leaking or stuck across the handoffs. Each stage links to the 360 that owns it and the records to work. (Recurring PX/ON-X revenue bills automatically and collects faster — this is the project lane.)

Where the time goes

185-day quote-to-cash
