From signed contract to PTO — without the paperwork stall.

Dedicated assistants for solar installers and energy contractors: permitting and interconnection paperwork, site-survey scheduling, customer updates and incentive documentation.

Overview

Solar projects stall in paperwork, not on roofs.

Between a signed contract and permission to operate, a residential or commercial solar project passes through site surveys, design, permits, HOA approvals, utility interconnection, inspections and incentive paperwork. Each jurisdiction and utility has its own forms, portals and timelines.

An ExecWing assistant tracks every project through those stages. They submit and track permit applications you prepare, upload interconnection documents to utility portals, schedule site surveys and inspections, keep customers informed with regular updates and organize documentation your team needs for incentives.

Customer communication is often where installers lose reviews. A dedicated assistant sending clear, proactive updates can change that experience.
