Mechanical Contractors (HVAC / MEP)
Your crews can run ductwork and hang pipe. The execution gap is everything between estimate and closeout.
STRYKE partners with mechanical contractors to build systems that connect estimating, prefabrication, field coordination, and project controls. We engineer job-tracking infrastructure that shows real-time labor productivity, material burn rates, and forecast-to-complete accuracy. When coordination breaks down, schedule slips. When labor tracking is weak, margins disappear. We fix both.
For service-heavy mechanical contractors, we build recurring revenue engines: preventive maintenance scheduling, agreement renewal systems, and service call conversion processes. Your install base is your service pipeline—if you have the systems to capture it.
Where Mechanical Contractors Lose Control
Labor Cost Overruns
Estimated labor hours vs. actual field hours often miss by 18-24% on complex MEP jobs without real-time tracking.
Prefab Utilization Gap
Shops capable of 80% prefab often run at 35-50% because coordination and planning systems don't support it.
Change Order Leakage
Per large project, unbilled or poorly documented scope changes that never get captured and invoiced.
Service Conversion Rate
Of all equipment installed, 65% never transitions into a structured service or maintenance agreement.
Execution Systems We Build
Estimate-to-Field Handoff Process
Structured transfer of scope, assumptions, risks, and pricing basis from estimating to PM to foreman. No more "that wasn't in the estimate" conversations mid-job.
Prefabrication Planning & Tracking
Coordination workflow that pushes work to the shop. Track prefab vs. field hours. Measure shop productivity and identify bottlenecks.
Real-Time Labor & Material Burn
Daily labor tracking by phase. Material consumption vs. budget. Weekly forecast-to-complete updates. Know where you stand before it's too late.
Multi-Trade Coordination System
Weekly coordination meetings, 3-week look-ahead planning, constraint logs, and RFI tracking. Reduce conflicts and schedule impacts.
Change Order Capture & Billing
Structured process for identifying, pricing, documenting, and invoicing all scope changes. Don't leave money on the table.
Service Revenue Conversion Engine
Handoff from installation to service. Preventive maintenance agreement templates. Renewal tracking. Turn project work into recurring revenue.
