Plumbing Job Profitability Analyzer

Replaces a $52k job costing analyst—auto-tracks material, labor, and sub costs against estimates to flag unprofitable jobs in real time.

The Problem

Plumbing contractors often don't know if a job is profitable until weeks after completion, when material waste, labor overruns, and subcontractor markups have already eaten margins. A dedicated job costing analyst costs $50k+ annually but most SMB plumbers can't justify the headcount. Without visibility, recurring low-margin jobs go unnoticed and drain profitability.

The Outcome

The agent ingests job estimates, material receipts, timesheets, and subcontractor invoices from your accounting and field management systems. It calculates actual cost per job, compares to estimate, flags jobs running over budget, and generates weekly profitability reports by job type and technician. Alerts trigger when labor or material spend exceeds thresholds, so you can course-correct mid-job.

Day in the Life
1.
Mon 6am: pulls new job estimates from Jobber → cross-references material list with supplier invoices → flags jobs with high material variance
2.
Wed 2pm: ingests timesheet data from field team → calculates actual labor hours vs estimate → alerts manager if job is 20%+ over budget
3.
Fri 4pm: compiles weekly profitability report by job type and technician → emails summary with top 3 money-losing jobs → recommends pricing adjustments for repeat services
