Field Operations That Actually Talk to Vantagepoint
Deltek Vantagepoint handles your project accounting. Matidor handles your field. Connect the two so project budgets and cost structures from Vantagepoint flow into Matidor automatically, and your team can track the extra costs that never make it into your ERP.
The Hidden Gap in How A&E Firms Run Projects
Engineering and consulting firms invest heavily in Deltek Vantagepoint because the back office demands it. Project accounting, resource planning, billing, and financials all live there. It works well for everything that happens at a desk.
The problem starts in the field. Field crews collect data on paper or in spreadsheets. Project managers send emails to chase status updates. Budget actuals from remote sites arrive at month-end, not when decisions are being made. By the time Vantagepoint reflects what actually happened, the chance to course-correct is gone.
This is not a Vantagepoint problem. It was never designed for field operations. It is a gap between what your ERP does well and what field work actually requires: mobile data collection at remote sites, real-time cost capture, geographic visibility across dozens of concurrent projects, and offline capability when connectivity fails.
There are also costs that never reach Vantagepoint cleanly. Third party services, flow through expenses, and small field purchases that are hard to code. These end up in spreadsheets or emails, and your project managers have to combine multiple sources just to understand true budget status.
Matidor closes both gaps. It gives field operations the dedicated platform they need, syncs project budgets and cost structures from Vantagepoint, and lets your team track the additional costs that live outside the ERP, so you can manage to the real budget, not just the financial one.
What Is Matidor?
Four things it does:
1. Location Intelligence
2. Project Management
3. Budget and Cost Control
4. Field Operations
Live Budget Sync From Vantagepoint
Operational Layer On Top Of Financials
GIS Visibility Vantagepoint Does Not Include
Vantagepoint Manages Your Financials. Your Field Is Still a Blind Spot.
Deltek Vantagepoint is the back-office standard for architecture, engineering, and consulting firms. It tracks project accounting, resource planning, and billing with precision. But the moment work moves onto a job site, Vantagepoint's visibility ends.
Field teams report on paper or in separate spreadsheets. Project managers chase status updates. Budget data from the field arrives days later. By the time your month-end close reflects reality, the decisions that could have changed the outcome are long past.
On top of that, not every project cost makes it into Vantagepoint cleanly. Third party costs, flow through expenses, and field purchases often end up outside the ERP entirely. Your project managers combine Vantagepoint reports with their own spreadsheets just to understand what the real budget status is.
Matidor fixes both problems. Vantagepoint sends project budgets and cost structures into Matidor. Your team tracks the additional costs that do not belong in the ERP directly in Matidor, using any categories they need. The result is a complete view of every project in one place.

How Matidor and Vantagepoint Work Together
Connect your Vantagepoint account
Link Matidor to your Deltek Vantagepoint account using your existing project codes and chart of accounts. No custom development required. See all integrations
%20(1).png){kind=tracking}
Budgets and cost structures sync into Matidor
Project budgets, cost codes, and chart of accounts context sync from Vantagepoint into Matidor. By default, Matidor groups this synced financial data into two clear buckets for budget context: Labor and Expenses. You do not rebuild your accounting structure inside Matidor.
Step 3: Field teams log exceptions in Matidor
Field crews and project managers use Matidor to log only the costs that do not live in Vantagepoint, such as third party or flow through expenses. These entries can use any categories you define inside Matidor, so you can track them at the level of detail that makes sense for your operations.

Step 4: Vantagepoint remains the source of truth
Vantagepoint continues to own all official project accounting. Matidor mirrors the budget context from Vantagepoint and adds the extra operational costs on top, giving your operations team a full budget picture without changing how finance works. See portfolio dashboards.
What You Get When Both Platforms Are Connected
Feature 1
Track Exceptions On Top Of Financial Actuals
Vantagepoint remains the source of truth for standard project accounting. Matidor pulls in those budgets, then lets your team track additional costs that never touch the ERP, such as third party and flow through expenses. You see the real operational budget, not just the financial one.
Feature 2
Simple Labor And Expenses Buckets For Synced Data
By default, Matidor groups data synced from Vantagepoint into two clear buckets for budget context, Labor and Expenses. This keeps reporting simple for most teams. If you need a more granular breakdown that mirrors a complex chart of accounts, the Matidor development team can set up a custom integration that introduces additional categories for imported data.
Feature 3
Flexible Categories For Matidor-Only Costs
Costs entered directly in Matidor that do not live in Vantagepoint can use any categories you define. You are not limited to Labor and Expenses for these entries. This lets you track exceptions at the level of detail that makes sense for your operations while keeping the financial sync simple.
Feature 4
GIS-Based Portfolio Visibility
Every Vantagepoint project appears on an interactive map. See status, budget health, and active field work by site, not just by project number, so you can coordinate resources based on proximity and priority. Explore location intelligence.
Feature 5
Automated Accrual Reports For Operations
Generate month-end accrual reports in Matidor based on budget context from Vantagepoint and additional costs tracked in the field. Operations gets an early and accurate view of committed costs before month-end close.
Feature 6
Multi-Site Geographic Coordination
When you manage 30 remediation sites or 75 wells across a region, Matidor's map view shows which sites are on track and which need attention. Context that Vantagepoint's tabular dashboards do not provide. See multi-site project management.
Feature 7
One Place For Third Party And Flow Through Costs
Use Matidor to capture third party and flow through costs that are not normally entered into Vantagepoint. Finance keeps the ERP clean. Operations keeps the budget picture complete. See how Matidor handles data management.
