Electrical Estimating Software Built for Contractors

Feed in drawings or talk through the scope — TIBR builds neat, checklisted quotes with clear assumptions.

Who it’s for

Commercial & light-industrial electrical contractors
Service teams quoting small works and call-outs
Design-build shops needing rapid budgetary pricing

Why

Organized sections for gear, feeders, devices, lighting, and controls
Alternates & value engineering structured by zone/phase
Standard assumptions for permits, testing, and commissioning
Clean, readable exports for clients and GCs

The electrical estimating problem

Bids bog down in device counts, panel schedules, lighting controls, and mismatched vendor formats. Spreadsheets hide missed scope and slow value engineering. TIBR structures quotes so you move faster and defend margin.

Missed devices, feeders, and terminations → costly change orders
Unclear assumptions around permits, testing, commissioning
Manual formatting → slow responses in competitive bid cycles

How works for electrical contractors

Capture scope fast. Talk through drawings and intent (devices, feeders, lighting zones, controls). Paste notes from walks and plans.
AI builds the estimate. Organized sections for rough-in, devices, gear, feeders, terminations, testing.
Guided prompts. Nudge for gaps (GFCI/AFCI, labeling, temp power, as-builts, O&M docs).
Assumptions, clarifications, exclusions. Standard language to de-risk award and reduce RFIs.
Export & share. PDF/Word/CSV or a branded proposal link with version history.

Estimators

Standardized sections for faster takeoff-to-proposal
Alternates & VE organized by zone/phase
Reusable libraries reduce rework

Project Managers

Clear inclusions/exclusions minimize disputes
Exportable BOMs & checklists for handoff
Audit trail for revisions and approvals

Owners & GCs

Readable proposals with apples-to-apples structure
Transparent assumptions, fewer clarifications
Faster decisions with cleaner comparisons

Typical scope elements covered

Panels, switchboards, disconnects, and distribution gear
Feeders, conduit, wire, terminations, and labeling
Devices (receptacles, switches, specialty) and rough-in
Lighting fixtures, controls, sensors, emergency/egress
Temporary power, testing, commissioning, and closeout

Integrations & outputs

Export estimates and BOMs to PDF, Word, and CSV. Use your own libraries for unit prices and assemblies. Accounting integrations (QuickBooks Online, Xero, and more) are planned — see the roadmap.

Results electrical teams see

50–80% faster quote turnarounds
Cleaner assumptions and fewer RFIs
Higher hit rates with polished, consistent proposals

FAQs

Does TIBR do takeoffs?

TIBR focuses on scope & quote structure. You can insert takeoff totals from your existing tool or spreadsheets.

Can I store unit prices and assemblies?

Yes — build libraries of unit prices and assemblies to reuse across estimates.

Can I show alternates and VE options?

Yes — organize alternates and VE by zone/phase and include them in the proposal.

Does TIBR cover testing and commissioning?

Yes — prompts and sections help you include testing, labeling, and commissioning steps.

Do you integrate with QuickBooks or Xero?

Exports are available today (PDF/Word/CSV). Direct accounting integrations are on the roadmap; see Integrations for status.
