Inaccurate billing due to untracked change orders on kitchen remodels or bathroom renovations
Overbooked schedules for electrical wiring or plumbing installations causing crew burnout and increased on-site safety risks like ladder falls
Lost insights from disconnected reports on subcontractor drywall finishing or painting crews

Why Choose Us
Imagine your general contracting operation as a well-orchestrated construction site, where every tool is in place and nothing's left to chance. We build bespoke business intelligence solutions that integrate your field apps, accounting software, and client portals into a unified command center. No more piecing together spreadsheets after a long day on the job. Our AIQ Labs approach starts with mapping your exact multi-service workflow—from bidding on kitchen remodels to coordinating electrical subcontractors. We then craft real-time dashboards that surface actionable insights, like predictive alerts for plumbing supply delays or KPI trends on project margins. This isn't off-the-shelf software. It's a production-ready system, engineered for scalability as your business grows from local fixes to regional dominance.

Optimize Resource Allocation
Optimize Resource Allocation: Forecast crew and supply needs across electrical, plumbing, and general contracting services with pinpoint accuracy, such as predicting pipe fittings for bathroom installs. This prevents the chaos of double-booked plumbers or idle electricians, improving utilization rates by 30% and freeing up cash flow for growth in seasonal home repair demands.
Strengthen Client Relationships
Strengthen Client Relationships: Deliver transparent updates to homeowners via shared dashboards on progress like drywall completion or fixture installations, turning potential disputes into trust-building moments. Contractors using our solutions report a 50% drop in callback requests for HVAC tune-ups, fostering repeat business and referrals in the competitive home services market.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were drowning in emails and paper logs for our kitchen remodel projects—jobs running weeks over because we couldn't see supply chain snags like delayed cabinet deliveries. Their custom dashboard now flags issues instantly, and we've cut our average project time from 45 to 32 days on full-home renovations. It's like having a digital foreman watching every site, from framing to finish carpentry."
Mike Rivera
Owner, Rivera Home Contracting
"As a multi-service outfit handling everything from asphalt shingle roofs to residential wiring, tracking subcontractor performance on tasks like insulation installs was a nightmare. AIQ's BI system pulls it all into one view, and our margins jumped 18% last quarter just from spotting underperforming crews early on gutter installations. No more surprises at billing time for add-on services."
Sarah Chen
Operations Manager, Chen General Services
"We used to lose bids because clients thought we were disorganized with our HVAC system replacements and copper piping quotes for whole-home plumbing. Now, with real-time KPI tracking on ductwork progress, we show them data-backed timelines that win trust. Landed three big residential addition jobs in two months—outcomes we never saw coming in this tight market."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this BI solution handle data from multiple service lines like plumbing and electrical?
We design your system to unify data from all your service verticals into one cohesive dashboard. For instance, if you're running parallel plumbing installs and electrical upgrades, our custom integrations pull live feeds from your field management tools. AI then analyzes patterns, like correlating pipe material costs with wiring delays, to provide cross-service insights. This eliminates silos, giving you a 360-degree view that informs decisions on resource sharing or bundled offerings. We've seen contractors reduce inter-service conflicts by 45%, turning potential overlaps into efficiency gains. Setup involves a quick audit of your current tools, ensuring everything syncs without disrupting daily ops.
What kind of real-time visibility do I get for on-site project management?
Real-time visibility is at the core of our BI solutions for general contractors. Picture your foremen logging updates via mobile—crew arrivals, progress on framing, or issues with drywall delivery—and seeing it reflected instantly in your central dashboard. We build in geofencing alerts for site check-ins and AI-driven anomaly detection, like flagging if a roofing job falls behind benchmark paces. This isn't just passive data; it's actionable, with push notifications for owners on critical paths. Industry stats show this cuts communication lags by 50%, preventing the 'flying blind' scenarios that lead to 30% of project overruns in home services. We tailor it to your workflow, ensuring it's intuitive for non-tech-savvy teams.
Can this system integrate with my existing accounting and scheduling software?
Absolutely, integration is our specialty. We create deep, two-way API connections to tools like QuickBooks for invoicing, Buildertrend for scheduling, or ServiceTitan for service dispatch. For a multi-service contractor, this means automatic syncing of job costs from electrical bids to final payments, without manual entry. Our approach handles the complexities of home services, like variable pricing for remodel add-ons, ensuring data accuracy that boosts close times by 25%. We start with a compatibility audit, then build custom bridges that scale with your growth—no brittle plugins that break during updates. Clients report reclaiming 15-20 hours weekly from reconciliation tasks.
How do you ensure the BI dashboards are user-friendly for field teams?
Field usability is non-negotiable in home services, where crews are battling weather and tight deadlines. We design intuitive, mobile-first interfaces with simple visuals—like color-coded progress bars for HVAC installs or quick-tap logging for material usage. No steep learning curves; training takes under two hours, with customizable views so electricians see wiring-specific KPIs while plumbers track pipe inventories. Drawing from our experience with 100+ deployments, we incorporate feedback loops to refine UX post-launch. This results in 90% adoption rates, far above industry averages, and directly ties to outcomes like 35% faster issue resolution on sites. It's built for the grit of contracting life, not office polish.
What metrics and KPIs are tracked in these custom BI solutions?
We focus on KPIs that matter to general contractors: project completion rates, cost-to-complete forecasts, crew productivity per service (e.g., hours per electrical outlet), material waste percentages, and client NPS scores post-job. For multi-service ops, we layer in cross-metric analysis, like how roofing delays impact overall remodel timelines. Using AI, we benchmark against home services standards—aiming for under 10% variance in estimates—and generate predictive trends, such as seasonal spikes in plumbing demands. Dashboards update in real-time, with drill-downs for details like subcontractor performance ratings. This data-driven edge has helped clients improve margins by 22%, turning raw numbers into strategic advantages without overwhelming your team.
How long does it take to implement a custom BI system for my contracting business?
Implementation timelines are tailored but typically span 6-8 weeks for a full multi-service setup. Week one involves discovery: auditing your workflows, from bidding electrical jobs to closing out remodels. Weeks two to four focus on building and integrating, testing with sample data like past project logs. The final weeks cover deployment, training your foremen and admins, and a soft launch to iron out kinks. We prioritize minimal disruption—phased rollouts mean you can start seeing value in site visibility within the first month. Factors like your current tool complexity influence this, but our agile process ensures scalability. Post-go-live, we monitor for 30 days, refining based on real usage to hit your ROI targets faster.
