Full Solar Job Lifecycle in One Platform
Permit milestone tracking
Track permit application, approval, inspection request, and sign-off as project milestones visible to the full team. When a permit is approved, the installation schedule updates. When an inspection passes, the interconnection application moves forward — automatically sequenced so nothing waits in a spreadsheet.
Utility interconnection tracking
Track interconnection application filing, utility review, and PTO (permission to operate) as project milestones. Lenders funding on interconnection confirmation get the status they need without a phone call — it's in the project record and visible at every stage.
Auto-create jobs at close
When a solar proposal closes, an installation project is created with all job details attached — system size, design specs, financing terms, and the full permit workflow. Ops picks up immediately without a handoff call from sales.
Financing connected to milestones
GoodLeap, Sungage, and LightReach funding milestones — often tied to installation completion and interconnection — are tracked in the same project record as the permit workflow. No separate spreadsheet to reconcile with the lender portal.
Stop Tracking Solar Permits in a Spreadsheet Disconnected From Everything Else
The typical solar installation has 8–12 weeks between proposal close and permission to operate. During that time, permit status, inspection scheduling, interconnection applications, and lender milestones are tracked in separate spreadsheets — or not tracked at all — while jobs wait on bottlenecks that no one can see coming.
In SubcontractorHub, every solar project milestone lives in the same record as the EasyQuote proposal and financing terms. The full team — sales, ops, management — can see permit status, interconnection progress, and installation schedule in one login. Bottlenecks surface before jobs fall behind.

Financing Funding Milestones and Permit Status in the Same Record
Solar financing adds a parallel timeline on every job. GoodLeap, Sungage, and LightReach each have funding milestones tied to installation completion and interconnection approval. Most solar contractors track these in a separate lender portal — disconnected from the permit and project timeline.
SubcontractorHub keeps the solar financing milestones attached to the same project record as the permit and installation timeline. When an inspection passes, the team knows the interconnection application can go in. When interconnection approves, the funding milestone is cleared. One record. No reconciliation across three separate systems. And because the full solar contractor platform lives in one login, there's no sync to run when something changes.
