Workforce Software for MEP Contractors in the UAE

Specialist trades billed by the hour across several concurrent projects, with mobilisation and hours-to-invoice tracked so nothing slips through between sites.

Built for this industry

Built for how mep contracting actually staffs.

MEP contractors run specialist trades (electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians) across several concurrent projects at once, usually billed by the hour on tight margins where a missed billable hour is a direct loss.

Trade rates set per client and per project

A client's agreed rate for an electrician on one project doesn't have to be the same as another. Rates are set at the client or project level, not one flat number for the whole company.

Approved hours become an invoice, not a gap

The same approved hours a supervisor signs off on become the client invoice, closing the gap where billable hours on a fast-moving project quietly go unbilled.

Mobilisation tracked across several sites at once

Each trade's current project and site is on their record, so moving a technician between two concurrent MEP jobs is a record update, not a phone call to confirm who's where.

Paperwork and compliance

What to keep on record in mep contracting.

A typical contract: An MEP contractor runs electricians, plumbers and HVAC technicians across four projects at once, each billed by the hour at a rate agreed per client. A technician finishing one job is moved to another within days, and every hour worked has to land on the right project's invoice.

Trade certificates and licences

Filed on each technician's record with an expiry date, next to their visa and labour card.

Labour card and Emirates ID

Tracked with expiry alerts so renewals are planned around project mobilisation.

Client rate agreements

Rates set per client and per project, so the rate on an invoice matches what was agreed for that trade.

Site access and clearance letters

Letters and NOCs generated from your own templates when a project needs paperwork for a technician.

The daily screen

Hours in, approved, and on to payroll and invoices.

Hours are recorded against the project each technician worked on, then approved once. The approved figures become that client's invoice at the client's own rate for the trade, so a fast-moving project does not leave billable hours behind.

Compliance

Expiries surface before they become fines.

Specialist trades often carry certificates alongside their visa and labour card. Each can be filed on the employee record with its own expiry date, so a lapsed certificate is visible before a technician is sent to site.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can the same trade have different rates on different projects?

Yes. Rates are set at the client or project level, not as one flat company-wide number, so an electrician can be billed differently on two projects.

How do approved hours become an invoice?

The hours a supervisor approves are the ones used to generate the VAT-ready client invoice, so there is no separate retyping step where billable hours can be missed.

Can we see which technicians are free for the next project?

Each trade's current project and site is on their record, so moving a technician between jobs is a record update, and who is on the bench is visible.
