Electrical Contractors
Copper moved again between the bid and the invoice.
Wire and conduit are the most price-volatile materials in construction — the bid-day price and the delivery-day price diverge weekly. Switchgear deposits sit for months against future invoices. CheckIT verifies every line against the quote you actually got, so volatility doesn't quietly become overbilling.
CheckIT Invoice is a cost intelligence tool that checks electrical contractors' supplier invoices against the quotes they were bid from and flags billing errors, overcharges, and commodity price creep before you pay. Send one job's quote and invoices and get back a line-by-line report of every difference, in dollars. It works alongside QuickBooks, Sage, or spreadsheets — no integration, no new software for your crew.
Where the money goes
Four ways profit leaves an electrical job.
Copper wire & conduit volatility
The trade most exposed to commodity swings. Every reel and stick billed above the quoted rate is margin gone — and it hides in 80-line supply invoices.
Gear & switchgear deposits
Panels and transformers ordered 6–12 months out with deposits, stored-material billing, and a final invoice that has to square against all of it. Usually it doesn't.
Service-call vs. project splits
Counter buys on service tickets mixed with staged project releases across the same accounts. Job-level coding by hand means chasing receipts every month-end.
Device-count creep on change orders
Added circuits and devices priced ad hoc mid-job — billed quantities drift past the approved change order without anyone counting.
How CheckIT fits the electrical workflow
Tools for the most volatile material book in the trades.
CheckIT Invoice — the live tool — sits between when a supplier invoice arrives and when you pay it. Drop the invoice and the quote in. The engine flags every line that doesn't match. Every stage answers one of the three money questions on the job — what will it cost, what should you pay, and what did you actually pay versus what you agreed.

Questions from the shop
No. CheckIT runs on the documents you already have — the quote and the invoices. Nobody in the field touches it, nothing about how you buy changes, and there's no new software for your crew to learn.
The free audit costs nothing — no credit card, no obligation. Paid plans are published on our pricing page and start at $455 per month per location, with unlimited seats and no per-user fees.
One job's quote and the invoices against it. Drag and drop the PDFs — counter tickets, gear invoices, and all. That's it.
Yes. Your documents are encrypted in transit and at rest, stay confidential, are used only for your assessment, and are deleted on request. We work with contractors' numbers for a living — discretion is the job.
Procurement software manages how you buy. CheckIT verifies you were billed what you agreed to. Different jobs. Plenty of shops run both — CheckIT doesn't ask you to rip anything out.
