January 24, 2022
Important Date Reminder for Our Valued Costpoint Clients
In late 2021 you received communication from the Deltek support team regarding Deltek Costpoint 7.1 entering sustaining support on March 1, 2022, and 2021 Calendar Year-End Support.
Deltek Costpoint 7.1 Entering Sustaining Support
Costpoint 7.1 will enter sustaining support on March 1, 2022. There will be no new software enhancements, hotfixes, service packs, or regulatory updates of any kind for versions in this phase. Don't risk going unsupported; customers should plan to upgrade to Costpoint 8 before March 1, 2022, to receive critical fixes and security updates.

2021 Calendar Year-End Support
On-premise customers that require Calendar Year-End updates will need to plan to consume their 7.1, 8.0, or 8.1 December and January Monthly Maintenance Releases. We encourage you to start planning now to upgrade and stay current on the latest major or minor feature releases and monthly maintenance releases.
On-premise customers that require ONLY 1099 support will receive changes via hotfix. You WILL NOT have to upgrade to the December and January Maintenance Releases if you are only processing 1099s.
Kinetek can help with your upgrade plans including:
• Implementation, technical and system upgrades
• Data conversion and reconciliation services
• Review current Costpoint usage and health
• Best practices for system setup and new features
• SME training for system administrators and end-users
• Provide testing, guidance, and support
• Go-live and post-upgrade support
