Electrical Contracting & Construction
How an electrical contracting business recovered an estimated 8,000+ hours per year across estimating, project management, and compliance documentation with 3 specialised AI workflows.
What this electrical contractor was dealing with before AI.
The team was spending the majority of their working week on repetitive administrative tasks that followed the same patterns every time. These weren't complex decisions requiring human judgement. They were predictable, rule-based processes that happened to consume significant hours.
Manual Estimating & Tenders
40+ hours per week spent on plan processing, takeoffs, supplier coordination, and spreadsheet compilation across 19+ cost centre tabs.
Project Tracking Overhead
35+ hours per week on post-award pricing, purchase orders, and field updates. No centralised system for daily reporting.
Compliance Documentation
10+ hours per week manually creating SWMS, toolbox talks, and daily pre-starts with no automated escalation.
What the AI Roadmap uncovered.
We started with a 2-week process audit. Mapped every repeatable workflow, timed them, and quantified the cost. We spoke to the people doing the work, not just management.
The audit revealed an estimated 8,008 hrs/yr being consumed by processes that followed predictable patterns. These were the same steps, executed the same way, hundreds of times per month.
The estimated potential: $380K+ /yr in estimated annual savings by automating the highest-impact workflows first.
3 AI workflows. Built from their SOPs.
Each workflow was designed from the team's actual standard operating procedures. Connected to their existing tools. Human checkpoints at every critical decision point. Nothing goes out without approval.
Intelligent Estimating & Tender Management
Automates plan processing, takeoffs, supplier coordination, spreadsheet compilation across 19+ cost centre tabs, and tender letter generation. Estimated 90% of the process automated.
Construction Project Management & Tracking
Post-award pricing, purchase order generation, voice-based field updates, and daily executive reporting. Estimated 77% reduction in manual tracking time.
Safety Compliance & Documentation
Automated prompts for SWMS, toolbox talks, daily pre-starts with escalation workflows. Estimated 10+ hours per week recovered.
