Projects and service work behave differently
Use the same customer and Job foundation for project packages and smaller operational works without forcing them into identical workflows.
JobCue for electrical and M&E contractors

Electrical and M&E contractors often deliver a mixture of installations, project packages, variations, service visits and ongoing client relationships. JobCue connects the customer, Job, Project, team, subcontractors, time and commercial records so delivery managers can work from a clearer shared picture.
