An ERP for MEP contractors: from site visit to retention release
MEP contractors deliver electrical, fire, HVAC and low-current systems for developers, hospitals and factories. The work spans quotes with revisions, projects with progress per system, payment certificates with partial collections and retention, and after handover, maintenance contracts and periodic tests. Nibras ERP brings it all into one system.
Where contracting companies lose money
Not because delivery is weak — because tracking lives in Excel, paper and engineers’ memory.
Opportunities lost in quotes
Rev 0, Rev 1 and negotiation — nobody remembers the last price sent.
Late certificates
A certificate submitted two months ago with nobody chasing approval.
Forgotten retention
Retention due for release that nobody claims.
Unclear progress
Management cannot see each system’s progress per project.
Missed maintenance revenue
Periodic tests and renewals at clients slip by.
