Dela Powers your business with industry-tuned AI to accelerate successful outcomes with speed, clarity and control.
Project-based work is complex — deadlines shift, risks emerge, and manual tasks slow teams down. Deltek Dela is our AI orchestration layer, purpose-built to bring speed, clarity, and control across the entire project lifecycle: winning work, planning, execution, and analysis.
Dela embeds industry-tuned intelligence directly into the workflows project teams already use, working across a coordinated set of AI capabilities designed to surface risk earlier, cut manual effort, and keep teams focused on decisions that need human judgment.
Dela combines predictive machine learning, natural language processing, and generative AI to deliver four core outcomes:
· Generate & automate content — turning project data into concise, decision-ready summaries.
· Enable intelligent exploration — ask questions in natural language and get answers or actions back through an AI-powered assistant.
· Predict outcomes — using historical performance and resource data to flag risk before it compounds.
· Streamline execution — automating repetitive work like timesheet entry, expense creation, and record generation.
Dela isn't a single application — it's an umbrella of AI-embedded capabilities across Deltek's industry-specific solutions, expanding with future releases. Available Dela features depend on which Deltek products a team uses today.
Security and trust are foundational, not an afterthought. Dela-enabled features are opt-in, we partner only with AI providers who commit to not training on customer data, and every integration is vetted against Deltek's security standards before release.
For government contractors, architecture and engineering firms, consultancies, and other project-based organizations, Dela is how AI becomes practical — embedded where the work happens, tuned to the industry, built to protect margin, timeline, and trust.
