For electric utilities & co-ops

Compliance that holds up to a PUC audit.

TCS gives utility operations and safety leaders one dashboard for every line worker's electrical credentials, NFPA 70E currency, and multi-state qualifications across your service territory. Built by a master electrician licensed in 20+ states.

What goes wrong without TCS

Every multi-state crew runs into these. A spreadsheet only papers over them; it doesn’t solve them.

  • Mutual-aid deployments cross state lines fast

    When a storm response sends crews into a neighbouring state, who confirms each line worker's credentials are valid there before they touch energized equipment? Manual cross-checks delay restoration; missing checks invite incident reports.

  • NFPA 70E currency is non-negotiable

    Every qualified electrical worker needs a current NFPA 70E credential on file. A spreadsheet doesn't catch the one that lapsed last Tuesday — TCS does, with 90 / 60 / 30 / 14-day reminders.

  • PUC audit packets reconstructed by hand

    When a state PUC requests a compliance packet, the safety team spends a week reconstructing certificates from email and HR systems. TCS builds the packet on demand, source-stamped per state.

  • Service territory changes outpace HR

    Mergers, acquisitions, and substation transfers shift service territory faster than HR can update which states each crew is qualified in. TCS keeps the credential matrix synced to the org chart automatically.

  • Contractor-of-record sprawl

    Every contractor crew on your system carries its own credential burden. TCS lets you require contractor compliance evidence per project, with a portal partners can populate themselves.

How TCS solves it

Four capabilities, one dashboard.

TCS sells electrical-code education and safety training first — NFPA 70E, NEC CEU packages, journeyman + master prep. The enterprise dashboard is what keeps your workforce’s licenses, training records, and reciprocity activations current across every state you operate in.

1

Employee dashboard

Every license, every employee, every state, in one place. Search by name, state, license type, or expiration window. Drill into any record for the full audit history.

2

Upcoming renewals

Automated reminders 90 / 60 / 30 / 14 days before expiration. Bulk-assign CEU courses for employees who need credit. Renewal packets pre-filled from each state board's published forms.

3

Reciprocity engine

TCS finds every state that accepts your existing employees' credentials — full reciprocity, exam equivalence, NASCLA route, or endorsement. We file the activation paperwork on your behalf.

4

Audit-trail reporting

Per-state compliance packets ready on demand. Five-year minimum retention on every certificate, completion record, and filing receipt — meets OSHA Outreach + state-board audit defaults.

Where it shows up in your day

  • A storm response routes 40 line workers from a Texas IOU into Oklahoma. TCS confirms each worker's reciprocal qualifications in 30 seconds and flags the two who need temporary endorsement filings.
  • Quarterly NFPA 70E currency review surfaces 11 line workers within 60 days of expiration. Bulk-assign the TCS NFPA 70E course; completion auto-reconciles to each worker's record.
  • PUC compliance audit lands Friday at 4pm. Compliance officer exports a 5-year packet by Monday morning — every certificate source-stamped, every renewal receipt attached.
  • Co-op merges with neighbouring co-op. TCS imports both credential sets, surfaces the gaps, and proposes a 90-day reconciliation plan tied to existing CE windows.
  • Contractor crew assigned to a substation upgrade. The portal validates their NFPA 70E + state credential currency before they're cleared to work on energized equipment.

Frequently asked questions

Does TCS handle NFPA 70E training and certification?+

Yes. TCS sells the NFPA 70E Electrical Safety course directly — built straight from the published NFPA 70E-2024 standard, current to the letter. The course issues a real PDF certificate with a 3-year renewal cycle, and completions auto-reconcile to each line worker's record on the company dashboard.

Can we white-label the worker-facing portal?+

On the Enterprise tier, yes. Custom subdomain, your logo, your colour palette. The TCS-attribution stays in the audit-trail metadata for source-of-truth purposes but doesn't show on the worker UI.

How is this different from BambooHR or Rippling for electricians?+

BambooHR and Rippling are HRIS platforms — they track headcount, payroll, and PTO. They don't know that Texas TML expires on the holder's birthday, that Ohio is biennial, that Colorado contractor licenses inherit their RI master's expiration, or that Oklahoma accepts a Texas master via exam-equivalence. TCS is built around those state-board specifics from day one, by a master electrician licensed in 20+ states. We integrate with your HRIS instead of replacing it.

What if my employees work in states TCS hasn't covered yet?+

TCS already supports the 50-state license matrix and reciprocity engine. The CEU course catalog rolls out state by state on a published schedule — TX TDLR is live; FL, WA, UT, OH, OK, VA, GA, KY, AL, AR, MS, NM ship in the next 8 weeks; the rest follow on a public roadmap. License tracking + renewal reminders + audit trail work in all 50 states on day one. CEU bulk-purchase coverage matches whichever states are live for that specific course.

Can I bulk-purchase CEU courses for multiple employees?+

Yes. From the Bulk CEU page in your dashboard, assign any TCS course to a list of employees in one step, and we book the credit to each employee's record automatically when they complete it. Volume pricing kicks in past 25 seats, with founding-customer pricing locked in for life.

What's your data retention policy?+

Five-year minimum retention on every certificate, completion record, training packet, and state-board filing receipt. Stored across Attio (customer record), Vercel Blob (PDF archive), and Stripe (billing). This default meets OSHA Outreach 10/30 requirements and every state-board audit standard we've tested. Custom retention windows available on Enterprise.

Do you integrate with our HRIS?+

Yes — we sync with BambooHR, Rippling, Gusto, ADP, and Workday on the Mid-market and Enterprise tiers. New employees auto-create a TCS record; departures auto-disable. SCIM provisioning available on Enterprise. If your HRIS isn't on the list, send us a note via the form below and we'll prioritise it.

What happens at end of subscription?+

Your data exports cleanly — every license record, every completion certificate, every audit packet, in CSV + PDF, owned by you. We retain the minimum required for compliance reasons (5-year audit-trail), but no new updates or reminders fire after cancellation. You can resume anytime with full history intact.
