The electrical day, on one board.
Every electrical job on one board the office runs and the trucks read: the morning built once, the emergency dropped in without re-sorting it, and Arrive tapped from the cab.

The work
The days the board has to hold.
01
Residential service
Panel and service upgrades, EV chargers, whole-home surge, quoted from the assembly book in the driveway.
02
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.
Why it matters
The argument, in three rows.
A truck that’s driving isn’t earning
Jobs sequence by geography so the day spends its hours on work, not windshield. The gap in the afternoon is visible at 6:40, not at 2 p.m.
The day goes sideways on schedule
A burst line jumps the queue; the board reshuffles; every affected phone updates itself. The emergency is an insertion, not a meltdown.
The customer hears it first
Confirmations, delay notices, and status texts go out from the board, before the customer wonders, not after they call.
Electrical · Scheduling
The board is the day.
Software for the trades where the schedule is the business, and the record has to keep up with the truck.
The old way
What the whiteboard costs.
Safety lives in binders
Checklists on paper cannot stop a job from closing without them. A record can.
Costing lands after the overrun
Budget versus actual that arrives at month end is a report, not a decision.
The aging panel is flagged and forgotten
Techs see the upgrade on site; without a record it never becomes a proposal.
Up close
How it runs.
01
One Friday, start to finish
A cancellation at 9, an emergency at 11, a truck stuck at 2, and a board that ends the day full anyway, with every change logged and every customer told.
02
Capacity, planned ahead
Recurring visits place themselves, and the weeks ahead show how booked each day already is, so the quiet week gets a capacity push before it arrives.
03
The right tech, not just the next one
Skills and licenses match to the work, and multi-day installs hold their crew across the days.
Straight answers
What electrical contractors ask.
What does Thorbis cost for electrical contractors?
$99 per company per month, unlimited people, every module as it releases. Plus metered usage. $15 included each month. Nothing on this page is a tier.
Is scheduling a separate module?
No. Scheduling & dispatch is in Core, on the same record as the board, the estimate, and the invoice, so the electrical job never leaves the system it started in.
Is it built for electrical contractors specifically?
The record is the same for every trade; what changes is the work on it. For electrical contractors that means residential service, commercial ti, new construction, and the safety record, which is the day this page is written around, and the sample rows on it are electrical jobs.
