How JL Minter Inc. Slashed Billing Time by 73% With BuildOps

Their Challenge

JL Minter Inc., a Virginia-based commercial contracting company that offers electrical, mechanical, and plumbing services, grappled with slow, paper-heavy processes that bogged down billing and job tracking.

“Prior to BuildOps, scheduling was done manually,” Beth Morris, CFO and Treasurer, recalls. “Journeyman workers and apprentices would continuously clock into the wrong jobs. And purchase orders were pieces of paper clipped to tickets.”
