What your card proves

The work a buyer needs to see at a glance.

A client or contracting officer scanning ten electricians wants fast proof you actually do the work. These are the core duties O*NET ties to your field — your capability card turns them into scannable proof points instead of a wall of text.

Duty 01

Prepare sketches or follow blueprints to determine the location of wiring or equipment and to ensure conformance to building and safety codes.

Duty 02

Place conduit, pipes, or tubing, inside designated partitions, walls, or other concealed areas, and pull insulated wires or cables through the conduit to complete circuits between boxes.

Duty 03

Work from ladders, scaffolds, or roofs to install, maintain, or repair electrical wiring, equipment, or fixtures.

Duty 04

Use a variety of tools or equipment, such as power construction equipment, measuring devices, power tools, and testing equipment, such as oscilloscopes, ammeters, or test lamps.

The government-contracting edge

Where the steady budgets actually are.

Most electricians win public work as subcontractors to construction and facilities primes, and through small-business set-aside programs. Primes vet subs fast — a living capability card with your licenses, bonding posture, and recent work is how you get the call instead of getting screened out. We build it to be that fast yes.
