In the electrical trade, precision matters, both in wiring and in estimating. Accurate estimating starts with accurate job costing.
Dapt connects your estimating, payroll, and accounting systems so you can see exactly where your labor, material, and overhead dollars go. With accurate insight, you can build competitive bids that protect your margins and power consistent profitability.
Electrical contractors face constant pressure from tight deadlines, changing material prices, and complex labor requirements. Estimating teams still rely on static spreadsheets or disconnected systems that don’t capture true field performance. Without real-time job costing data, bids can miss the mark, and profits can quickly disappear.
