Hiring an Electrical Contractor?

The Struggle to Find, Train, and Retain Top Electrical Estimators is REAL.

Most electrical contractors try to solve their estimation problems by hiring another human estimator. But here's what actually happens:

Inaccurate Bids & Hidden Overruns

Every human estimator, no matter how skilled, is prone to mistakes. A single missed detail, an outdated price, or an oversight can lead to significant cost overruns on your projects or force you to absorb losses.

Your Payroll's Growing, Not Your Profit

A human estimator comes with a significant salary, benefits, and overhead – a fixed cost whether you're busy or slow. Plus, their capacity is finite, capping the number of bids you can realistically submit.

Bid Inconsistency & Slow Turnarounds

No two human estimators work exactly alike. This leads to inconsistent bid quality and varying timelines. Waiting days or even weeks for a manual takeoff means you're missing out on vital opportunities.

Recruitment Headaches & High Turnover

Finding and retaining a qualified electrical estimator is a constant uphill battle. The time and resources spent on hiring, training, and dealing with potential turnover could be better spent on growing your core business.

Working 60+ hour weeks but revenue plateaued, largely due to slow or inaccurate bids and manual estimators.

Frustrated by inconsistent bid quality or slow turnaround times preventing you from bidding on more lucrative projects.

Feeling like you're trading time for money, with every bid being a time-consuming, manual struggle with no end in sight.

The high cost of a human estimator's salary, benefits, and office space eating into your already tight margins.

Worrying about missed details or human error leading to costly project overruns or reduced profits.

The constant headache of recruiting, training, and retaining skilled estimators in a tight labor market.

Technology Makes Better Bids

The Pillars of Better Project Bids

After working with electrical contractors across North America, we discovered there specific things separate the businesses that scale and win profitable projects from those that struggle with manual estimation and capped growth. It's not about working harder or hiring more people; it's about leveraging technology to transcend human limitations.
