Bucket 01 · Trades & Field Services · 5 industries

The bucket where operational leaks
live in dispatch, documentation, and dollars not billed.

Construction is the proven case — $580K/year recoverable for a $50M GC with 12 PMs. The same archetype factory extends to HVAC, Plumbing, Electrical, and Roofing. Field-driven businesses with mobile crews, supplier coordination, and customer expectations measured in hours, not days.

Five industries · same factory · vertical-specific schemas

Construction first. Four more from the same backbone.

Each industry below ships with a default Fleet of 5 named agents tuned to the workflows that bleed dollars in that specific sub-vertical. Construction's RFI Loop becomes Plumbing's Emergency Dispatch. Construction's Change Order Capture becomes HVAC's Warranty Tracker. Same archetypes. Different schemas.

The pattern · why trades bleed money the same way

Three leak shapes that show up across all five.

Construction and HVAC look like different businesses on the surface. The leak topology is the same: time-sensitive workflows with documentation lag, multi-party coordination friction, and revenue recovery dependent on records that don't get written down. The same archetypes recover dollars across all five.

PATTERN 01

Documentation lag at the moment of work

Field events happen on the job site. Documentation happens in the office, hours or days later. Whatever didn't get captured is what doesn't get billed. Construction's Change Order Capture and Roofing's Supplement Collector are the same archetype — different schemas.

$200K – $700K typical annual leak
PATTERN 02

Multi-party coordination friction

Owners, architects, inspectors, GCs, subs, suppliers, adjusters. Every handoff introduces lag. The 9.7-day average RFI cycle in Construction is the same shape as the 4-day average permit-pulse cycle in Electrical.

$100K – $300K typical annual leak
PATTERN 03

Revenue recovery dependent on records that aren't kept

HVAC warranty service work that should be billed but isn't. Roofing supplements adjusters approve but never get filed. Plumbing AR aging because invoices weren't sent within the same week as the service. Same shape across the bucket.

$80K – $400K typical annual leak

If you operate in any of these five industries,
the next dollar is leaking right now.
