Recore Electric Partners with Smart Labor Management to Gain Full Visibility Into Labor Spend While Scaling Fast
As one of the largest electrical contractors in the Charlotte Metro Area, Recore Electric is scaling fast, and leadership wanted the infrastructure to match that growth. That's why Recore partnered with Smart Labor Management, bringing in a consolidated labor platform to support expansion across commercial and industrial projects. The results speak for themselves: invoice volume dropped 97%, from 30-40 invoices a week down to one per job, and the team freed up as much as 832 administrative hours a year. With one dashboard for labor spend, compliance, and workforce data, Recore's supervisors now have the real-time visibility to manage staffing with confidence, and the bandwidth to keep pushing growth forward.
From Uncertainty to Scalability: How DP Electric Tripled Its Hirable Workforce
For DP Electric, growth wasn't limited by ambition — it was limited by workforce predictability. Despite being a high-performing electrical contractor with real market opportunity, the company found itself stuck in a costly cycle: investing heavily in onboarding only to see 75–80% of temporary workers fail to meet hiring standards. Scheduling suffered. Productivity fluctuated. And with little visibility into compliance status or staffing agency performance, scaling into new regions felt like a gamble rather than a strategy.
That changed when DP Electric partnered with Smart Labor Management (SLM) to rethink its approach from the ground up — and the results speak for themselves.
