Construction Professionals

Built for the Realities of Substation Construction 

Substation and power infrastructure projects are fundamentally different from typical civil work and operate under strict utility controls and high engineering precision.

ProjectPro keeps civil, electrical, materials, and financials aligned from early excavation through commissioning and energization.

Construction Accounting Purpose‑Built

ProjectPro is purpose-built for substation contractors with:    

Job cost by substation projects, phases, and utility cost codes

Civil, electrical, equipment, and subcontract tracking across work packages  

Progress billing, retainage, and WIP aligned with utility reporting  

Multi-entity, multi-project infrastructure operations    

Committed cost and margin visibility across substation work

Manage Complex Civil & Electrical Scopes in One System 
Equipment & Crew Cost Visibility Across Secure Job Sites 
Material Planning for Long‑Lead Electrical Infrastructure      
Schedule‑Aware Execution (Use ProjectPro or Your Existing Tools)   
Built for Prevailing Wage, Union, and Utility Compliance   
Progress Billing for Long, Milestone‑Driven Projects     
One System for Project Teams, Finance, and Executives   
Scales for Regional and National Power Infrastructure Contractors 

Manage Complex Civil & Electrical Scopes in One System 

ProjectPro supports substation delivery with tightly sequenced civil and electrical execution.

  • Foundation and structural steel installation tracking    
  • Duct bank, grounding grid, and underground system costs  
  • Control building and auxiliary facility cost tracking  
  • Coordination between civil turnover and electrical energization
  • Equipment pads, fencing, and site civil completion stages

So cost, schedule, and financials stay connected across trades.   

Equipment & Crew Cost Visibility Across Secure Job Sites 

ProjectPro helps contractors manage substation work effectively.    

  • Allocate owned and rented equipment costs accurately 
  • Track fuel, maintenance, and utilization by job and phase 
  • Apply labor costs by crew, shift, and scope 
  • See true cost across concurrent substation projects 

You gain visibility without compromising site controls. 

Material Planning for Long‑Lead Electrical Infrastructure   

With Job Material Planning, ProjectPro supports long-lead material planning.  

  • Plan procurement of transformers, breakers, and switchgear by phase
  • Align civil readiness with equipment delivery schedules
  • Coordinate installation timing with outage and energization windows
  • Reduce early capital exposure on high-value equipment
  • Track financial commitment before issuing major purchase orders

Material planning becomes proactive, not reactive.     

Schedule‑Aware Execution (Use ProjectPro or Your Existing Tools)   

Utility projects live and die by the schedule, and ProjectPro helps keep execution on track.

  • Built‑in scheduling tied to project phases and material needs 
  • Or continued use of existing schedules (P6, Microsoft Project, utility‑mandated tools) 

Either way, ProjectPro remains the financial system of record, keeping job cost, purchasing, and billing aligned with the real schedule.     

Built for Prevailing Wage, Union, and Utility Compliance 

Substation and utility work carries strict compliance obligations.    

  • Prevailing wage job tracking   
  • Union and non‑union labor structures 
  • Accurate labor allocation by job and cost code 
  • Clean reporting for public owners and utilities   
  • Audit‑ready financial visibility 

Supporting compliance without slowing execution.     

Progress Billing for Long, Milestone‑Driven Projects  

Substation billing is typically milestone‑based and closely reviewed.   

  • Progress billing tied to civil and electrical milestones  
  • Retainage tracking built directly into job cost   
  • Change orders flowing automatically into WIP and billing
  • Clear, auditable pay applications for utilities and agencies     

Billing stays clean and defensible throughout the project lifecycle.          

One System for Project Teams, Finance, and Executives   

Substation projects require coordination, and ProjectPro unifies teams, finance, and executives.    

  • Job cost and accounting 
  • Equipment and material planning   
  • Labor tracking and compliance   
  • Project financials and billing   
  • Executive reporting and forecasting 

A full Microsoft ecosystem that works seamlessly with Excel, Power BI, Teams, Outlook, and SharePoint.     

Scales for Regional and National Power Infrastructure Contractors

Whether you manage a city program or multi‑state portfolios, ProjectPro scales with you.  

  • Supports multiple companies, regions, and crews   
  • Handles long‑duration, capital‑intensive projects   
  • Predictable per‑user pricing   
  • Lower total cost than legacy utility construction systems  

Built for long‑term growth, not constant rework.
