The Problem & Bottlenecks

System Bottlenecks & Technical Friction

Commercial electrical contractors spent up to 25 hours per project hand-counting lighting symbols, measuring conduit branch runs, and pricing switchgear schedules, severely limiting the number of commercial RFPs they could pursue each month.

Our Engineering Approach

Architecture Design & Implementation

We developed a specialized electrical takeoff web application. Implemented standardized fixture schedule matching, conduit length estimation formulas based on architectural floor plans, and low-voltage security/data drops separation, slashing bid prep times.

Technical Architecture

System Subsystem Breakdown.

6 Core Subsystem Modules
01
