Why electricians switch

Built for permits, inspections, and the everyday "while you're here" requests.

Permit tracking on the job

Permit number, applied date, inspection date, pass/fail status. All on the job record. Office and the field both know where the paperwork stands.

Code requirements in the file

GFCI requirements, AFCI breakers, service rating — note them in the job description so the apprentice knows what's needed when they show up.

Panel and circuit line items

Pre-built line items for common work — 200-amp service, sub-panel install, dedicated circuit. Estimate goes out in five minutes, not an hour.

Add-on change orders

Customer says 'while you're here, can you add an outlet in the closet?' Click Add Change Order. Customer approves. New work shows up on the same invoice.

Inspection scheduling

Job has its own inspection date that's separate from the work schedule. Reminder to the office to file the inspection request. Reminder to the tech to be on site.

Materials with markup

Wire, breakers, devices, panels — entered at cost with your markup percentage applied automatically. No mental math at the end of the job.

How a job runs

A typical electrical job in Construction Scope

Walk through what the same job looks like in the tool, from the first call to the final payment.

  1. 1

    Customer call to quote

    Homeowner wants a panel upgrade. Create the customer + job. Use pre-built line items — 200-amp service swap, sub-panel install, dedicated circuit. Estimate goes out in five minutes from the truck.

  2. 2

    Permit filing on the job record

    Quote approved. File the permit, log the permit number on the job. Inspection date scheduled when the work is scheduled. The office and the field see the same paperwork status.

  3. 3

    Material order at signing

    Panel, breakers, wire, devices — all line-itemed at cost with your markup. Order goes in. Receipt photographed and attached to the job. Cost vs. bid visible per material line.

  4. 4

    Add-on work as change orders

    Customer asks about an outlet in the closet while the panel is open. File a change order, send the approval link, get a signed yes. The closet outlet shows up on the same final invoice.

  5. 5

    Inspection day

    Inspector arrives. Pass/fail logged on the job. Photos of the panel cover, the grounding, the labels. If fail, the punch list opens with what needs to change. If pass, status moves to Billable.

  6. 6

    Final invoice with permit paperwork attached

    Send the invoice with the permit number and pass-off photos. Customer pays by card or ACH from the email. The whole permit file is attached to the customer record for the next time they need work.

Common questions

Questions electrical ask

Does it track AHJ inspections separately from work scheduling?
Yes. The job has its own work schedule and its own inspection date. The office gets a reminder to file the inspection request. The tech gets a reminder to be on site. The two don't collide.
Can I bill add-on work without a separate estimate?
Yes — that's exactly what change orders are for. Customer asks for something extra mid-job. File a change order in 30 seconds, customer signs on their phone, the new line item rolls into the same final invoice.
Does it handle commercial service calls with multiple buildings?
One Customer record for the property management company, JobSite records under it for each building. Each building has its own equipment register, contact, and history. Visits log against the building, billing goes to the company.
How are materials marked up?
Set your markup percentage per category (or a flat percentage across the board). When you add a material to the job, the customer-facing price applies the markup automatically. You see your cost and your invoiced amount side-by-side per material line.
