The conductor is still the conductor.
The compliance is what eats your weekend.
The certified payroll that took three days to file every two weeks. The estimator who quit because he was on his fifth tool and none of them talked to each other. Forge is the chest the working electrical contractor builds for his own crew — and ships to the operators who recognize themselves in the work.
The drawers that matter most
when the truck door opens.
Trade Service, NetCom, Accubid-style assemblies. Conduit fill, panel schedules, NEC calcs. The estimator who left because his tools didn't talk — comes back when they do.
Davis-Bacon, prevailing wage, certified payroll, OCIP/CCIP — all native. Eleven minutes per pay period instead of three days.
Single-line, panel schedule, riser, equipment cuts — submittal packages as version-controlled documents, not email PDFs. AHJ markup lives in the same plate.
Journeyman vs apprentice ratio respected per state. The job that needs a master electrician gets one. The dispatch board protects the license.
Hyperion for electrical scans gear rooms and as-builds existing service. The drawer is on the bench. Charter electrical members get it on the same day the founder ships it to himself.
The first electrical Charter member
writes their own page here.
The quote, the metrics, the photograph — all of it. The Forge team supports every word; the operator carries the page. If you've been waiting for the moment that earns you the badge, this is it.
One Charter seat open for commercial electrical. First operator earns the badge.

Forge's estimating module imports from both and ships with native commercial assemblies. Charter electrical operators have moved off Accubid because Forge's federation puts the estimate, the schedule, and the certified payroll in one chest. Whether you replace your estimator is your call. Charter members usually do.
State-specific ratio rules are first-class in the dispatch module. The board enforces the ratio, flags violations before they happen, and produces an audit log per project. The license is protected because the architecture protects it.
NEC 2020, 2023, and current state amendments are tracked in the calcs module. AHJ-specific overrides apply per project. The estimator doesn't cross-reference a code book in the truck — the code book is in the chest.
$27,000 prepaid for 36 months — $750/month equivalent rate, locked forever. Public list rises to $1,499 then $1,999. One electrical Charter seat is open. The first operator earns the badge on this page.
0 of 1 electrical seats

Charter is the operator who builds with the new tools first. Ten seats across all trades. Locked when filled. The rate doesn't move — ever — while the public list rises around you.
The needs have been the same for 4,000 years.
Power is one of the oldest needs. Forge is the chest for the operator who delivers it.
