MEP · Pakistan
For mechanical, electrical, and plumbing contractors: subcontractor ledgers, procurement, variations, and billing tied to each package.
Overview
MEP contracting sits in an awkward commercial position. You are a specialist subcontractor to several main contractors at once, each with their own certification rhythm, their own retention terms, and their own attitude to variations. Your own labour moves between those sites weekly. Your material is high-value and easy to lose. And your claims almost always depend on documentation, because the reason MEP work goes wrong is usually that somebody else was late.
That creates a specific need: one place that holds your position with every main contractor, and a daily record strong enough to support the claims that MEP contractors routinely have to make. Access delayed. Builder’s work not ready. A design change instructed on site and never confirmed in writing. Each of these is recoverable if it was recorded at the time, and almost never recoverable if it was not.
Smart Construction gives you a project per contract with its own certification, retention, and variation record, one running balance per client, labour attendance recorded per site per day, material control on high-value stock, and a coded daily record designed for exactly the evidence an MEP claim depends on.
How it works
Everything below is included on Starter, Growth, and Enterprise. Plans differ only on active project and user limits.
Each main contractor engagement is its own project with scope, rates, certification schedule, retention terms, and its own commercial record, so several concurrent contracts do not blur together.
Certificates, payments, retention held, advances, and back-charges net into a running balance per client, so you can state what each main contractor owes you without assembling it.
Design changes and additional work recorded against the project when instructed, which is the only point at which an MEP variation is reliably recoverable.
Coded daily records of what was worked, what was blocked, and why, with photos, producing exactly the documentation an access or readiness claim needs.
Attendance recorded per worker per day against the contract they worked, so labour cost lands on the right job even when crews move weekly between main contractors.
Store records for cable, fittings, and equipment with receipts, issues, and transfers, because MEP material is both expensive and highly portable.
Before and after
The same work, run the way most contractors run it today and the way it runs on the platform.
Use cases
Recognisable scenarios from construction businesses operating in Pakistan.
Benefits
Coded daily records of access and readiness are precisely the evidence MEP claims depend on.
One running balance per main contractor including retention, advances, and back-charges.
Tracking release events across several contracts is what turns retention from a hope into a receivable.
Per-day, per-contract attendance handles crews that move between main contractors weekly.
Store records on portable, expensive stock across multiple sites.
The only point at which an on-site design change is reliably recoverable.

Questions
Yes. Package-level control, subcontractor ledgers, procurement, and billing fit MEP and interior fit-out workflows.
Yes. Variations are recorded against the contract and reflected in billing and cost.
Yes. Each subcontractor has a ledger with contract value, certified work, advances, and retention.
Yes. Each engagement is its own project with its own scope, rates, certification schedule, and retention terms, and each main contractor carries a running balance so your position with each is always stateable.
Daily records carry coded blocker reasons, photo evidence, and the date the main contractor was informed. That contemporaneous record is what an access or readiness claim depends on.
Yes. Retention held and released is recorded per contract with the events that trigger release, so the total retained across every main contractor is a report rather than an estimate.
Yes. Attendance is recorded per worker per day against the contract worked, so labour cost lands on the right job even when crews move between main contractors weekly.
