Where time leaks

Where the hours go in commercial electrical

Patterns we see in this industry. Your workflow will differ; discovery confirms which ones apply.

01

Estimators receive dozens of bid invitations a week and spend hours reading specs to decide which jobs fit.

02

RFIs and change orders are tracked across email, Procore and spreadsheets, and unbilled change work is lost.

03

Foremen send daily reports by text or photos that the PM rewrites every evening.

04

Pay applications need backup documents gathered from several systems each month.

How we implement

Built around how work actually runs in commercial electrical

We begin with one active project and your bid inbox, mapping how information flows between estimating, PMs and accounting before connecting systems.

Discovery call: We walk through your current process and tools (free, 30 minutes).

Workflow map & fixed quote: Written scope, software costs listed separately, compliance notes included.

Build in a test environment: Your accounts, test data first, then a supervised pilot.

Handover: Documentation, training and an optional support plan.

Limitations & compliance notes

  • Change-order drafts are suggestions; your PM decides what is submitted to the GC.
  • Project documents remain in your systems; we work within each platform's permissions.

General information, not legal advice. Confirm requirements with your own counsel or compliance officer.
