From high-volume California residential to large C&I across Texas and Florida - CrmLeaf handles utility interconnection milestones, AHJ permit tracking, NEC-compliant BOQs, ITC documentation and milestone billing for solar companies across the United States.
No credit card required · Free onboarding · Used across USA
Track permit application, plan check submission, plan check corrections, approval, installation and final inspection as project milestones with AHJ-specific timelines. Automated alerts when permits are approaching expiry.
Document ITC-eligible costs per project, track state-level incentive programmes (SGIP, CSI, SREC markets) and generate the cost documentation needed for tax credit claims and incentive applications.
For C&I projects claiming IRA bonus adders, track prevailing wage compliance documentation, qualified apprenticeship hour requirements and the project records needed for enhanced ITC rates.
Field crews in California, Texas, Florida and across the country can geo-check-in, complete tasks, photograph each installation phase and log equipment serial numbers - all from the CrmLeaf mobile app.
Track every project's interconnection application status across multiple utility territories. Dashboard view shows interconnection status for all active projects simultaneously - critical for companies installing across multiple utilities.
Monthly revenue by project type (residential / C&I), close rate by lead source, outstanding interconnection applications, pipeline value by territory - all in the CrmLeaf dashboard without a separate reporting tool.
Installers working across multiple utility territories - PG&E, SCE, FPL, Oncor, NV Energy - face different interconnection processes and timelines. CrmLeaf lets you create utility-specific milestone templates so each project follows the correct sequence for its utility, and deadline alerts fire when utility responses are overdue.
We were running our California residential solar operation on JobNimbus and hitting the ceiling on everything we needed for the operational side - no BOQ, no inventory, no interconnection milestone tracking. Switching to CrmLeaf gave us the full workflow. Our permit and interconnection milestone tracking alone has improved our average project timeline by 3 weeks because nothing sits unsubmitted or unmonitored.

Yes. Interconnection milestone tracking is one of the most-used features for US solar companies. You can configure utility-specific milestone templates for each territory you operate in - PG&E, SCE, FPL, Oncor, Eversource - with the correct application steps, review timelines and alert thresholds for each utility.
Yes. Project costs can be tagged as ITC-eligible or non-eligible at the BOQ level. CrmLeaf generates a cost summary per project that separates eligible from non-eligible costs for tax credit documentation. For C&I projects pursuing IRA bonus adders, prevailing wage and apprenticeship tracking documentation can also be maintained in the project record.
JobNimbus is a general-purpose contractor tool with limited solar operations depth - no BOQ, no inventory, no milestone billing. CrmLeaf includes all of these plus US-specific features like interconnection milestone tracking, permit timeline management and ITC documentation support. Free migration from JobNimbus is included.
Both. US residential installers use CrmLeaf for high-volume proposal automation, permit and interconnection tracking, crew scheduling and milestone billing. US C&I solar developers use CrmLeaf for multi-phase project management, complex milestone billing, prevailing wage tracking and multi-stakeholder approval workflows.
Interconnection milestones, ITC tracking, NEC BOQs and high-volume residential automation - built for the US market.
