Many people don't realize that we are one of America's largest providers of flat rate pricing for the ELECTRICAL industry. Our electrical experts have perfected our famous electrical book over the course of many years and many thousands of service calls. Our staff of expert electricians have just completed a major update and revision process of our popular flat rate pricing book for the residential and light commercial electrical industry. We have added repairs, brands, updated pricing, added technical notes, and much more.

Our professionally designed electrical database includes approximately 1300 of the nation's most common electrical tasks and thousands of parts. We have included the things you need and left out the junk you don't use. Of course you will also find plenty of lighting, ballasts, motor repairs, switches, wiring, disconnects, fuses, breakers, panels, and more.

All items have been priced for you. We have worked hard to include the price that you are most likely to pay. We start with the manufacturer' s list price and subtract the most popular discounts offered across the country. We are told that our pricing is very accurate. Software makes it easy to change pricing if you find that it is necessary.

Our labor time (labor allocation) assigned to each task is the result of careful work. We surveyed technician's, talked to managers, studied various journals, and examined manufacturer's warranty data to determine the proper amount of time. You can easily change labor allocation to meet your own needs.

Our national experience has shown that many who are new to flat rate pricing quickly become concerned that there are not enough tasks to meet their daily needs. This is rarely true. The fact is that you will need an average of only a few hundred tasks to meet your needs. Think about what parts you order on a regular basis. You only do a small number of different things each day.

It is not possible to create the exact task for every possible situation and fit it into one book. You need to get used to the idea of using similar and generic tasks to meet your daily requirements. Use miscellaneous tasks (included) to meet unusual needs. If you do encounter the need for a specific task, you can easily and quickly create it. Print a new page (or section) and add that task to your technician's book during your next department meeting.

The major consolidators all use flat rate pricing and they don't carry books as large as the one that comes with Flat Rate Plus™. We have many customers who have 300 to 600 trucks on the road. Their books contain only a few hundred tasks.

Our tests indicate that these repair and installation tasks will cover 95% of all your common daily electrical needs. We have also included a complete section of "catch-all" miscellaneous repair tasks that were specifically designed to accommodate the other 5%.

If all of that wasn't enough to meet your needs, you can always build your own electrical tasks. With Flat Rate Plus™, the process is quick and easy. Even if you are not a computer wizard. We have included approximately 2000 electrical repair items and fixtures.
