Electrical
You're Running a Business on Gut Feel
How many jobs did you complete last month? What's your average ticket? Which tech is most productive? If the answer is 'I'd have to check,' you have a visibility problem.
The Electrical Industry at a Glance
Licensed electrical contractors — residential, commercial, and industrial wiring, panel upgrades, and maintenance.

Electrical contractors deal with strict code compliance, multi-phase projects, and AHJ inspections. Panel schedules, wire pull sheets, and as-built drawings on paper get lost between rough-in and trim — and the inspector does not accept 'we had it somewhere.'

Does This Sound Like Your Electrical Operation?
- !No dashboard — just a spreadsheet updated quarterly
- !Can't answer basic performance questions without digging
- !Decisions based on gut feel, not data
The Cost of Doing Nothing
Blind spots in job costing, tech productivity, and customer profitability quietly drain 5–15% of margin.
What Electrical Companies Typically Use
These tools are great at what they do — but they don't eliminate the reporting & visibility gap. That's what we build.
Electrical Operational Challenges
- 1NEC code updates every 3 years require re-training and documentation changes
- 2Arc-flash hazard analysis and labeling requirements on commercial jobs
- 3Panel schedule documentation lost between rough-in and final inspection
- 4EV charger and solar installations adding new permit complexity
Compliance & Regulations
- ANEC (National Electrical Code) compliance — updated every 3 years
- BState electrical licensing with continuing education requirements
- COSHA electrical safety (NFPA 70E arc-flash protection)
- DLocal AHJ permit and inspection requirements per jurisdiction
How We Fix Reporting & Visibility for Electrical
Map Your Workflow
We study exactly where reporting & visibility happens in your electrical operation — the forms, the handoffs, the re-entry points.
Build a Working Prototype
Not a demo. Not a slide deck. A real, functional prototype that eliminates the pain point and works with your existing tools.
Prove It Before You Pay
You test the prototype on a real job. If it doesn't eliminate the reporting & visibility problem, you don't pay.
