No documentation for permits and inspections
Inspectors want photo proof. When that proof lives on a tech's camera roll instead of attached to the job record, you're scrambling during inspections.

Problems ClockHQ solves for Electrical businesses
Underestimating complex rewire jobs
Electrical estimates that don't account for actual labor time on similar past jobs leave money on the table — or worse, win jobs at a loss.
Certified payroll that takes hours to produce
Government and union jobs require certified payroll reports. Assembling them manually from timesheets every week is time-consuming and error-prone.
