This Sounds Like You?

A handful of large projects make up most of your year, so one slow quarter or delayed job puts the whole business under pressure.

You're constantly fronting materials and labor while waiting on GCs, owners, or property managers to release draws.

Change orders and extras get approved verbally in the field, but what actually gets billed and collected is a mess.

Retainage and "punch list" work drag on for months, tying up cash you thought was yours.

You don't have a clean read on which projects, GCs, or job types are truly profitable vs barely worth it.

Your team is always switching roles to cover dropped balls—estimating, project management, AR—and no one really owns the numbers.

You're making six-figure decisions on hiring, trucks, and tools based on gut feel instead of a simple project and cash forecast.

How We Fix the Bid vs Bank Gap
for Electrical

Project & Quarter-Adjusted Cash Planning

13-week cash forecast and rolling project view so you can see how current jobs, pipeline, and slow quarters affect payroll, overhead, and owner draws before it's a crisis.

Deposit, Progress Billing & Retainage Structure

Payment terms that keep you out of "bank of electrician" mode: dialed-in deposits, progress invoices, and retainage strategy so you're not funding jobs for GCs and owners.

Project & GC Profitability

Clear visibility into profit by project, GC, building type, and service vs TI/remodel work so you can choose better jobs and better partners.

Change Order & Extra Work Capture

Simple systems to track, approve, bill, and collect change orders and extras so added scope actually turns into added cash, not donated labor.

Field-to-Finance Handoffs

Define who owns what—estimating, job setup, billing, collections—so information doesn't die in email threads and texts.

AR & Collections

Tighten how and when you invoice, plus follow-up rules, so cash hits the bank faster and less money dies in aging receivables.

Tax Timing & Strategy

Quarterly estimates and year-end planning that match your project and cash timing, so April doesn't wipe out what you thought you made on last year's big jobs.

What You Actually Get

Not just better reports. Better cash.

📊

Financial Clarity & Reporting

Clean monthly close, electrical-specific reporting, and project/job costing you can trust—by project, GC, and segment (service, TI, ground-up).

💵

Cash Flow & Debt Management

13-week cash forecast built around your real project load. Know what's available for payroll, materials, subs, tools, and owner draws before you commit.

🎯

Project Profitability & Pricing

Project and customer-level profitability, overhead allocation, and simple scorecards for estimating and project management so 15%+ net is the expectation, not a surprise.

📋

Tax Strategy That Reaches the Return

Proactive tax planning integrated with your filings: quarterly estimates and year-end moves that actually show up on your return and line up with when you really get paid.
