Software for Commercial Electrical Contractors

Submittals, panel schedules, NEC compliance documentation, and bid-to-build workflow automation for mid-market commercial electrical contractors.

Commercial Electrical Contractors using modern software tools

Sound Familiar?

Bidding commercial work means assembling submittals with panel schedules, conduit run drawings, NEC compliance matrices, and equipment cut-sheets — every project, every time
RFI volume on commercial projects creates a steady churn that interrupts every PM workflow during the day
Service contracts on commercial systems require routine documentation (PM schedules, parts inventory, warranty registrations) that compounds across the customer book
Project closeout — as-builts, O&M manuals, training videos — gets pushed to the end and slips into the next project's start
Estimators reuse pricing logic stored only in their own heads; when the senior estimator is out, bid quality drops

How We Help

Submittal + Panel Schedule Compilation

Assembles equipment cut-sheets, populates panel schedules from project drawings, runs NEC compliance against the engineer's spec, and produces the compliance matrix. The PM reviews instead of building.

AI Integration

RFI Triage + Drafted Response

Reads the inbound RFI, identifies which project + which spec section, surfaces the relevant contract language, and drafts a response. PM verifies and sends. Cuts RFI cycle time by half.

AI Integration

Estimator's Pricing Memory

Captures the senior estimator's pricing logic — labor productivity by job type, material markup conventions, regional unit rates — into a queryable knowledge base the rest of the bid team can reference. Bid quality stops depending on one person being available.

AI Integration

Closeout Package Automation

Assembles as-built drawings, O&M manuals, warranty registrations, and training documentation into the customer's required closeout format. The work that used to happen at the end of every project becomes a one-week wrap instead of a six-week scramble.
