01
Residential service
Panel and service upgrades, EV chargers, whole-home surge, quoted from the assembly book in the driveway.

Commercial TI
Rough-in, trim, and final on one job with progress billing today. Phases with their own labor and material budgets, billed on AIA G702/G703 draws, when Projects ships (Next).
03
New construction
Estimate to final inspection on one record: permits, inspections, and phase billing coordinated.
04
The safety record
Lockout/tagout, arc-flash assessment, PPE photo, signature. The job does not close without them.
