Welcome to ELECTRI’s Research Engagement Hub!

ELECTRI is actively shaping the future of the electrical contracting industry by offering invaluable insights through surveys, interviews and contractor feedback.  Below are our current research projects that need your help.

• Forecasting Absenteeism: We are requesting historical project data for the past 5-6 months or longer (ideally 2-3 years) to capture a range of project types and condition. Data from multiple projects and multiple locations would add a lot of value to the project. Generally, the more data the better. Below is a list of minimum data requested. If you think there is more useful information that we should include, please feel free to share more. Data Specifications (CSV or Excel format): 
  • Timesheets, Daily Logs (if available), Overtime Records, Employee Demographics, Project-specific data, etc.

  Please fill out this contact form if you are interested in learning more or participating. 

• Managerial Strategies for Improving Project Level Cash Flows and Payment Terms:  We are seeking electrical contractors to share their expertise in this two-phase study. In phase one, participants will provide insights on best practices for cash flows, with minimal time commitment (15-20 minutes for an email survey and 10-15 minutes to rate responses about a month later). In phase two, contractors can opt to share project-level data (kept confidential) to help create a predictive earned value tool through ProNovos Analytics.
