# Project Management for Electrical Contractors

Project management from rough-in to trim-out

Track scope, permits, labor and profitability on every project — from a service panel change to a full commercial build — in one live record.

## Why it works for this trade
- **Permits and inspections tracked:** Jobs that need permits or inspection sign-offs get flagged and documented on the record.
- **Phases stay on schedule:** Rough-in, trim and final phases track against the schedule, with slippage surfaced early.
- **Margin visible per job:** Contract, billed, collected and unbilled value per project — so you know where every job stands financially.

## A day in the life
A tenant improvement runs six weeks. Permits, phase schedule, progress billing and margin all track in one project record — and the weekly briefing flags the material overrun before it eats the job.

## FAQ
Q: Does it flag jobs that need permits?
A: Yes — Gideon flags projects that likely need permits or compliance documentation and keeps them on the record.
