# Every production / One place

FORM / ONE is project and cost management software for media production companies, creative and animation studios, agencies and live event teams. Pitches, projects, crew, budgets and invoices in one place, from the first enquiry to the final invoice.

**Studio: ~~£799~~ £599 a month for up to 10 staff and 10 freelancers.** Launch offer for your first 12 months, then £799. Every feature on every plan.

## Run the project / Control the costs

Most production companies juggle spreadsheets and several different pieces of software to run their projects. FORM / ONE brings it all together, so the plan and the money never drift apart.

### Every project at a glance

- Lifecycle phases from pitch to wrap
- Task boards with your own columns
- Gantt schedules with milestones, shared as a link
- Crew and kit booked against the job
- Meeting notes with to-dos

### Ditch the budget spreadsheet

- Budgets built by section, with days and day rates
- Crew and kit booked straight from the budget lines
- Cost to date, forecast cost and margin on every job
- Purchase orders and time counted against the budget
- A branded client budget, ready to send

## Goodbye, Budget FINAL v7

Budgets, cost trackers and margin reports tend to live in Excel, copied from job to job and out of date by Friday. FORM / ONE replaces your budget sheets, cost trackers, PO logs, margin reports, crew booking sheets and billing forecasts with one system that stays up to date.

## Bring everything with you

Send us your spreadsheets and exports and we'll import the lot as part of your setup. You'll log in to your own clients, crew and projects, not an empty system.

- Clients and contacts
- Freelancers and day rates
- Kit and equipment
- Past projects
- Budgets
- Invoices

One place for the whole job. Every pitch, project, freelancer, booking, budget and invoice, instead of five spreadsheets and an overflowing inbox.

Made for studios, agencies and production companies of **any size**, from a handful of staff to unlimited users on Production House, with freelancers on every plan. If your jobs run on a pitch tracker, a scheduling sheet, a budget spreadsheet and an accounts package, FORM / ONE fills the gaps between them.

## Made for the way you work
