Deltek Introduces a New Era of Innovation for Costpoint, Designed for How Government Contractors Work

Deltek, the leading global provider of enterprise software and solutions for project-based businesses, announced the latest version of Deltek Costpoint, the industry’s most trusted ERP for government contractors. The new release builds on Costpoint’s proven foundation with a fully modernized, AI-powered user experience that integrates intelligence into every layer of the workflow. The update expands Dela™’s intelligent automation with new, task-oriented agents that streamline repetitive processes and help users make faster, more informed decisions.

This release marks a major milestone in Costpoint’s evolution. It features an elegant new user interface powered by Deltek Harmony™, the company’s intuitive design framework, and enhanced by embedded analytics, a role-based Command Center and expanded AI-fueled innovation from Dela. This update revolutionizes how government contractors work, empowering them to move faster, collaborate more effectively and manage projects from capture to close out with the compliance, innovation and security they need.

“This release is more than a UI refresh, it’s a smarter, sleeker experience that completely reimagines how government contractors interact with Costpoint,” said Warren Linscott, Chief Product Officer at Deltek. “Costpoint is purpose-built for government contractors. This release enhances the platform with a more intuitive user experience. It also introduces new AI-driven automation features that boost user efficiency and support customer growth.”

While the interface has been modernized for greater usability, Costpoint retains the powerful functionality, trusted insights, and built-in controls to support compliance that users rely on—delivering a seamless transition for longtime users and immediate confidence for those new to the solution.

Key features include:

  • A Smarter, Simpler User Interface: A reimagined, modern interface streamlines navigation, reduces clicks and guesswork and adapts to users’ needs, increasing productivity. These enhancements improve everyday tasks like time entry, expense reporting and project tracking, while minimizing errors, accelerating onboarding and reducing costs.
  • Role-Based Command Center: A purpose-built analytic workspace surfaces relevant KPIs and actionable insights tailored to users’ roles, beginning today with Project Management. The Command Center will deliver insights for project management, enabling smarter business decisions and greater visibility.
  • AI That Works the Way You Do: Building on capabilities like Smart Summaries and Ask Dela, the latest release introduces Dela Agents, AI tools designed not only to answer questions but to act. Agents automate manual tasks like time entry, approvals and expense reports with precision and context-awareness, reducing administrative overhead and improving compliance. New with this release, the Contract Agent automates contract record creation by extracting key terms and metadata from uploaded documents.

    Ask Dela can now be trained on organizations’ unique employee documentation and training guides to ensure they are following internal guidelines and reducing errors. Together, these AI capabilities can accelerate workflows, increase accuracy, reduce administrative overhead and improve compliance.
  • Compliance, Embedded by Design: Built-in controls, auditability and secure orchestration that support regulatory compliance remain foundational to Costpoint. Features like Teams-based approvals and vendor certification management are integrated directly into the platform.

The latest Costpoint user experience is also available in Costpoint GCCM. Costpoint GCCM completed its FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency assessment and supports DFARS 252.204-7012 and CMMC compliance as a cloud service provider, delivering peace of mind and a competitive edge in government contracts for the DoD.
