Electrical job management
Electrical contracting is not one job shape. Your software has to handle four.
Four kinds of work, four pricing models, four paper trails and four definitions of finished. Software that models one of them well tends to model the other three badly, which is why so many electrical contractors keep a spreadsheet next to the system they bought.
Reactive service call
A dead circuit at two in the morning. Priced on call-out and time, dispatched to whoever is licensed and closest, invoiced the same day.
Residential upgrade or rewire
Quoted up front, then extra work found once the walls are open. Two pricing models on one job: fixed price for the scope, time and materials for the rest.
Commercial fit-out
Weeks of visits under a main contractor, with variations, retentions and staged invoices on terms the contractor sets, not you.
Planned inspection and testing
Recurring visits on a contract, with test results and circuit schedules recorded per panel and a report the client expects in a set format.
What electrical job management software has to handle
- Two pricing models on the same job: a fixed quoted price for the specified work, and time and materials for anything found once the walls are open
- Certificates, test results and circuit schedules as structured records, not photos in a notes field
- Multi-day and multi-visit jobs where labor, materials and progress are tracked per visit but invoiced against the job
- Materials drawn from van stock that is never quite what the system thinks it is
- Work that cannot be marked complete until a second person (a master electrician, a supervisor) has signed it off
- Retentions, staged invoices and payment terms set by a main contractor
- Callbacks linked to the original job, at no charge, without corrupting the profitability of either
Why generic field service software struggles
Most field service platforms are built around a clean cycle: book a job, a technician attends, the work is done, an invoice goes out. That fits a single service call well. It fits a commercial fit-out poorly, because the fit-out has no single visit, no single price and no single moment of completion.
The gap shows up as workarounds rather than missing features. Certificates get stored as attachments because there is nowhere structured to put them. Variations get typed into a job description because there is no variation record. A job that ran over three weeks gets closed and reopened to keep the scheduler happy.
Scheduling and dispatch for electricians
One board for service calls and projects, dispatched by licence.
Emergency call-outs, planned upgrades and multi-week construction phases sit on the same schedule, so a crew is never booked twice. Jobs go only to electricians holding the right licence class, the day is visible on a board or a map, and when an inspection date moves, the crews that depend on it are re-planned for you to approve.
On the electrician's phone
Job details, panel history, test results, photos, signatures and site notes on a mobile app that works with no signal in plant rooms, basements and new builds, and syncs when it returns.
From quote to invoice
Fixed-price and time-and-materials on the same job, staged and retention billing for contract work, and reporting on job profitability and what is being lost to callbacks.
Rules the system enforces
If a job cannot be invoiced until the test results are attached and countersigned, that is a rule the system holds, not a habit the office has to remember.

A fixed product or one built to you
Electrical software: two approaches to the same problem
This is a real trade-off. Established products like ServiceTitan, Jobber and FieldEdge give you a proven model of a service business on day one, and if your operation looks like that model, take it. The cost shows up later, in the parts of your work the model does not describe.
| A fixed product | Fieldproxy, built to your process | |
|---|---|---|
| Day one | Working immediately, in its model of the business | Built to your model, live within a day |
| An unusual process | A workaround, or a feature request | Part of the specification |
| Domestic and commercial work | One job flow that half-fits both | Separate stages, fields and rules for each |
| Changing how you work | Wait for the vendor roadmap | Describe the change in plain English and approve it |
| What adapts | Your process, to the software | The software, to your process |
| Best when | Your operation is close to the standard model | Your way of working is what you compete on |
Usually fixed elsewhere, yours here
- The job lifecycle: the stages your work actually moves through, named the way your team names them
- What has to be true before a job can move stage or be invoiced (permit signed off, test results attached, countersigned)
- The fields on a job, a quote and a certificate, including the ones specific to your clients
- Pricing logic: day rates, call-out bands, contract rate cards, material mark-ups by client
- Who can see and do what, by role and by team
- The screens themselves, on desktop for the office and on the phone for the electrician
When Fieldproxy is the wrong choice
If you are a sole trader or a small residential outfit and want something running this afternoon without a conversation, an off-the-shelf product will serve you better. Fieldproxy earns its keep when your work has stages, rules or paperwork a standard product cannot hold, and sooner if you do commercial work under contract.

AI agents
What the AI agents do on an electrical job
Licence classes, permits and inspection evidence decide whether the job is billable. The agents keep that straight.
Dispatch Agent
Matches by licence class (journeyman, master, low-voltage), so a job never lands with a tech who can't legally sign it off.
Knowledge Agent
Puts the panel history and your own install standards in front of the tech at the step that needs them, on site, without a call to the office.
Vision Agent
Reads rough-in, trim and final photos into the permit record and flags a capture that won't satisfy the inspector while the tech is still there.

Questions
Straight answers.
What is the best software for an electrical business?
The best electrical contractor software is the one that fits how your business actually runs: service calls and troubleshooting, panel upgrades, EV charger and generator installs, commercial maintenance and construction phases, with permits and inspections on top. Template tools work well if your process matches theirs. Fieldproxy is electrical software set up to your own job types, forms and checklists, with AI agents that answer calls, schedule, keep customers updated and draft invoices, one price per company with unlimited users.
How much does electrical contractor software cost?
Many electrical tools charge per technician or per user, so the bill rises with every electrician you hire. Fieldproxy is one price per company with unlimited users, so adding electricians, apprentices, estimators and office staff does not add cost. Each plan includes a monthly allowance of AI credits.
Can electrical software track permits and inspections?
Yes. In Fieldproxy each job holds its permit number, status and inspection dates, with required photos at rough-in, trim and final attached to the record. A job can be set so it cannot be invoiced, or move to the next phase, until the inspection is signed off.
Can it run service calls and construction projects together?
Yes. Same-day service calls and multi-week construction jobs sit on the same schedule board, so a crew is never booked on both. Construction work can be split into phases with progress invoices, while service work is dispatched, completed and invoiced the same day.
How long does it take to switch from ServiceTitan or simPRO?
We map how you run on a 30-minute call, configure Fieldproxy to it within a day, then migrate your customers, sites, equipment and open jobs. Fieldproxy AI moves it all over from any major tool or custom system in less than a day, and you switch over when your electricians are ready.
Is there AI for electrical contractors?
Yes. Fieldproxy's AI agents answer calls, texts and emails, book service calls and estimates, build and rebuild the schedule around inspections, dispatch by licence class and location, chase missing permits and photos, and draft invoices from completed work. They work inside your own electrical workflow, and you confirm anything that matters before it happens.
What is electrical job management software?
It is the system that holds the operational side of an electrical contracting business: quotes and estimates, scheduling and dispatch, what the electrician records on site, certificates and test results, materials, invoicing and reporting. The distinction that matters in practice is how much of that model you can change: some systems hand you a fixed process, others are built around the one you already have.
How is electrical software different from general field service management software?
General field service software assumes one job shape: booked, attended, completed, invoiced. Electrical work routinely breaks that, with multi-visit jobs, two pricing models on one job, test results and inspections that gate completion, and payment terms set by a main contractor. The difference is not a feature list; it is whether the underlying model can be changed to match how you work.
Can it handle both residential and commercial electrical work?
Yes, set up as genuinely different workflows rather than one compromise that half-fits both. Residential work tends to be short, priced up front and invoiced on completion. Commercial work runs over weeks, carries variations and retentions, and is invoiced in stages. Each can have its own stages, fields and rules.
Do electricians need signal on site?
No. The mobile app works offline and syncs when the connection returns, which matters in plant rooms, basements and new-build sites.
