Deltek unveiled its next-gen AI-powered platform at its ProjectCon 2025 event.
The platform unifies ERP, project management, and business development.
It is powered by Dela, Deltek's AI orchestrator, and Deltek Native Architecture (DNA).
New AI capabilities aim to cut proposal creation time by 60-70%.
It introduces agentic financial close and enterprise-wide risk management.
The platform is purpose-built for regulated, project-based industries.
The Deltek platform is built to connect traditionally siloed functions—from ERP and accounting to project management and business development—into a single, intelligent system. By using agentic orchestration, it automates workflows and surfaces insights across the four key stages of a project: winning opportunities, planning for execution, delivering efficiently, and analyzing outcomes for continuous growth. This holistic view empowers organizations to operate faster and more intelligently without sacrificing the governance their industries demand.
At the core of the platform is Dela, the AI orchestrator that embeds intelligence directly into workflows. Deltek introduced three key AI capabilities demonstrating this power. Deltek Proposals uses AI to automate solicitation analysis and draft creation, potentially reducing proposal time by 60-70%. Deltek PPM Enterprise Risk provides AI-driven visibility into organization-wide risk exposure, enabling proactive mitigation. Deltek Agentic Financial Close applies AI to reconcile ledgers and detect anomalies, shortening close cycles by days while maintaining crucial human oversight for compliance.
Executive leadership emphasized that the platform is designed to resolve the core tension between innovation and compliance. "Project-based businesses can't afford to choose between innovation and compliance," said Warren Linscott, Chief Product Officer at Deltek. "Deltek customers need an intelligent platform designed to elevate how they work, automating what slows them down while keeping their expertise and compliance at the center of every decision. We've built exactly that." This sentiment was echoed by the CEO, who highlighted the delivery of "speed, clarity, and control that high-stakes work demands."
Deltek's next-generation platform represents a strategic evolution from a suite of tools to a cohesive, intelligent system. By deeply integrating AI and orchestration into the fabric of project-based work, Deltek provides its customers with a definitive edge. It enables them to accelerate outcomes, mitigate risks, and ensure compliance, ultimately allowing them to focus on their core mission of building, protecting, and transforming the world.
