Capacity visibility
VoltLine Electrical was growing fast on commercial and residential service — but backlog visibility was guesswork. Estimators committed timelines dispatch could not support.
Margin One built crew capacity scorecards tied to open jobs, estimator win rates, and technician certifications. M1COS operational dashboards gave leadership a single view of booked vs. available crew-days.
Within two quarters, VoltLine reduced schedule slips by a third and improved gross margin on service work.
