For electricians

Job management software for electricians.

figrd works out your real hourly rate as you build the quote, then sends the follow-ups and invoice reminders for you.

Set your trade to electrician and each job lists the electrical certificate your state requires, the deadline and where it goes.

  • Compare quoted and recorded job costs
  • Schedule jobs, track time and add photos
  • Invoice from the quote and sync with Xero
  • Automatic follow-ups and invoice reminders

Electrical certificates by state

Each state sets its own certificate, deadline and lodgement channel. This is what figrd lists on a job in each one:

Every plan lists these on the job, with the deadline and a link to where it goes. On Pro you also record the certificate number and the date you lodged it against the job.

Queensland lets a contractor issue its own certificate of testing and safety, or testing and compliance, if it carries the required details. On Pro, figrd fills one in from the job for you to check and issue.

Requirements read from each regulator's own site, most recently checked 12 July 2026. Rules change, so confirm with your regulator before relying on them.

When a builder sets the price

If a builder or another business sets the amount for your part of a job, you can check it against your costs before you accept the work. figrd then reports profit and payment speed by who paid, so you can see which builders are worth saying yes to.
