How does IBP handle after-hours electrical emergency calls?

IBP's AI Receptionist answers every electrical call 24/7. For after-hours panel trips, outages, or safety concerns, the system qualifies urgency, confirms on-call availability, and dispatches via FieldTask with the address and reported issue sent to the tech's mobile device in real time — no owner involvement required.

How does FieldTask track permit-required electrical jobs?

FieldTask work orders for permit-required jobs include fields for permit number, inspection date, approval status, and inspector notes. Permit tracking is tied to the job record so every phase — rough-in, inspection, and final — is documented in the same place as the time log and invoice.

How does IBP's Permit Intelligence Outreach work for electricians?

IBP pulls permit data to identify homeowners who have filed panel upgrade, rewire, or EV charger permits in your service area. Automated outreach contacts those homeowners with your business information before they have selected a contractor — giving you a first-call advantage on the highest-ticket electrical jobs in your market.

Can IBP handle large project estimates for electricians?

Yes. For larger jobs like panel upgrades, rewires, or EV charger installations, IBP captures the initial inquiry, books the estimate appointment, and launches an automated 7-day follow-up sequence if no response is received within 48 hours. The follow-up continues until the homeowner commits or closes — without any manual effort.

Does IBP work for both residential and commercial electrical contractors?

Yes. Residential service calls, panel upgrades, and permit work run on one workflow. Commercial electrical contracts — tenant improvements, multi-phase projects, and recurring service agreements — run on a separate pipeline with their own scheduling and invoicing cadence inside the same IBP system.

How long does IBP take to set up for an electrical business?

14–21 days. IBP's team configures AI call handling, Permit Intelligence Outreach, FieldTask with electrical work order and permit tracking templates, estimate follow-up sequences, and Google Local Services Ads during onboarding. Your system is live before your next estimate.
