How Recore Aligns with Contractors for Industrial Electric Projects

May 8, 2025

In industrial construction, precision, collaboration, and communication are critical to success. When electrical contractors and general contractors operate in sync, it reduces delays, avoids cost overruns, and creates a smooth path from planning to commissioning. At Recore Electric, we specialize in partnering with construction teams to align with contractors for industrial electric projects, supporting schedules, budgets, and long-term performance goals.

This approach does more than keep lights on. It empowers progress at every phase of the job.


Why Alignment Matters in Industrial Electrical Projects

Industrial builds are complex. From equipment power needs and conduit routing to power distribution and safety controls, electrical contractors are involved in every phase. Missteps or a lack of coordination in these areas can create ripple effects that delay the entire job.

The Construction Industry Institute (CII) found that a lack of planning integration and poor communication are two of the leading causes of project delays and cost overruns in the industrial sector. Their research emphasizes that successful projects typically demonstrate strong collaboration across disciplines and stakeholders.


Recore Electric’s ability to align with contractors for industrial electric projects begins with a commitment to shared success. Whether it’s a power upgrade in a manufacturing facility or the full electrical scope of a new industrial park, we build trust through transparency, professionalism, and responsiveness.


Early Involvement: The Foundation of Alignment

The best outcomes in construction often start with early contractor involvement. By participating in preconstruction meetings, reviewing design documents, and contributing to value engineering, Recore is able to identify opportunities and prevent conflicts before construction begins.


When industrial electricians are involved early, they can advise on:

  • Feasibility of electrical layouts
  • Conduit routing and clearances
  • Budget projections for various electrical scenarios
  • Lead times for long-lead items like switchgear or VFDs
  • Coordination for slab work and underground feeds


General contractors who engage Recore during the preconstruction phase benefit from more accurate budgets, better constructability, and reduced change orders. This alignment reduces friction once boots hit the ground.


Streamlined Communication from Office to Field

Effective collaboration hinges on communication. At Recore, we maintain open lines between our project managers, site foremen, and the GC’s superintendent to support field-level alignment on schedule and scope. Our teams participate in daily huddles, weekly coordination meetings, and digital plan-sharing systems.


When design changes happen, and they will, Recore is positioned to react quickly without impacting the schedule. Rapid responses reduce downtime and keep teams moving forward together.


Our communication style is based on clarity and accountability. Contractors know who to call, what to expect, and how our work affects their next step.


Adapting to Fast-Track Schedules

In today’s industrial environment, time is money. General contractors are often held to aggressive timelines, and their partners must rise to the challenge. Recore Electric adapts by developing lean construction workflows.


This approach reduces field congestion, limits rework, and speeds up installation. We prioritize work that opens access for other trades. When necessary, we work off-hours or adjust our sequences to support the larger goals of the project.


According to the National Institute of Building Sciences (NIBS), early coordination and modular strategies are key drivers in shortening timelines without sacrificing quality.


Transparent Budgeting and Scope Management

Aligning with contractors for industrial electric projects means more than meeting timelines. It also means supporting financial visibility. Recore works closely with construction managers to deliver detailed scopes, realistic budgets, and clear change order processes.


During execution, our field supervisors and project managers constantly monitor quantities, labor hours, and material usage. This allows us to track progress against budget and flag potential overages before they impact the bottom line.


When scope changes do arise, we provide clear documentation and solutions that help the GC weigh cost, schedule, and technical implications. Our goal is to avoid surprises and keep project stakeholders confident in the path forward.


Safety as a Shared Priority

Jobsite safety is a team effort. At Recore, our alignment with contractors extends to safety planning and execution. We participate in site-specific orientations, coordinate on lockout/tagout procedures, and follow jobsite hazard analysis protocols.


Our team is trained in NFPA and OSHA standards, and we contribute to toolbox talks and job hazard analyses alongside the GC. When electrical contractors actively participate in the overall safety culture, it creates a more secure environment for everyone on site.


By maintaining this shared commitment to safety, Recore helps reduce incidents, delays, and liability risks for the entire construction team.


Real-Time Problem Solving

Even the best-planned projects encounter unforeseen challenges. Whether it’s an underground obstruction, missing coordination, or a last-minute design update, how quickly a team adapts makes all the difference.


Recore’s electricians and supervisors are trained to think critically and offer practical solutions that balance code requirements, constructability, and design intent. Instead of pointing fingers or waiting for answers, we work with the GC and design team to keep things moving.


This mindset builds trust and earns repeat business from construction managers and developers who value teams that contribute, not complicate, the job.


Post-Construction Support

Our alignment with contractors does not end when the power is turned on. Recore stays involved through testing, commissioning, and final inspections. We provide detailed as-builts, operation manuals, and support documentation that contractors can pass along to their clients.


We also remain available for warranty items, additions, or service contracts. GCs know they can count on Recore for responsive support even after closeout, which adds value to their relationships with owners and facility managers.


Partnering for Repeat Success

Recore Electric is proud to have been a trusted partner on repeat industrial projects with leading contractors throughout the region. These relationships are built on a foundation of trust, performance, and shared goals.


By aligning with contractors for industrial electric projects from day one, we help deliver predictable outcomes for even the most complex jobs. Our reputation as a collaborative, capable, and safety-minded electrical partner continues to grow with successful projects at a time.

Access Control Systems
July 3, 2025
Access Control Systems are no longer optional; they are essential for modern facility security. Whether you're safeguarding an industrial site, commercial building, or high-traffic campus, access control systems help protect personnel, property, and sensitive data. These systems provide seamless entry for authorized users while keeping out potential threats, improving both security and operational efficiency. In this blog, we’ll explore how access control systems work, their components, the benefits of integrating them into your facility, and how Recore’s tailored approach sets the standard for physical security. What Is an Access Control System? An access control system is a digital security solution that regulates who can enter or exit specific areas within a facility. Unlike basic door locks, access control systems use electronic methods, such as key fobs, PINs, or biometric data, to authenticate users and grant or deny access. According to the U.S. General Services Administration, physical access control systems (PACS) are vital to controlling entry into secure areas using electronic identification . Why Your Facility Needs Access Control Systems 1. Stronger Physical Security Standard keys can be lost, stolen, or duplicated. Access control systems eliminate these risks by using unique digital credentials. Each access event is logged, providing a detailed audit trail. 2. Real-Time Access Management Access permissions can be updated instantly. If an employee leaves the company or changes roles, you can immediately revoke or reassign their credentials. 3. Enhanced Visibility and Accountability Every access attempt, successful or failed, is recorded. In the event of an incident, these logs provide valuable insights for investigation or compliance audits. 4. Scalability Across Multiple Locations From standalone door readers to enterprise-level networks, access control systems grow with your business. Networkable systems can control hundreds of entry points across facilities, all from a centralized platform. Core Components of Access Control Systems A well-designed access control system typically includes: Credential Readers: Devices that scan badges, key cards, biometrics, or mobile credentials. Control Panels: Hardware that processes reader data and decides whether to unlock a door. Electronic Locks: Magnetic or electric strike locks that are controlled remotely. Management Software: Software interface where administrators assign permissions, monitor activity, and generate reports. User Credentials: Key fobs, smart cards, PIN codes, mobile apps, or biometric inputs. Access Control System Types Standalone Access Control Systems Ideal for smaller facilities, standalone systems control individual doors without connecting to a centralized network. These are cost-effective and simple to install, making them a smart choice for single-building operations. Networked Access Control Systems Best suited for multi-site or enterprise-level applications, networked systems connect all access points through centralized management software. These systems offer remote access control, real-time updates, and advanced reporting. Integration Capabilities One of the most valuable features of access control systems is their ability to integrate with other building technologies, including: Video Surveillance Systems: Automatically record footage of access events. Alarm Systems: Trigger alerts for unauthorized access attempts. Building Automation: Control lighting, HVAC, and elevator access based on occupancy. Visitor Management Software: Issue temporary access credentials to guests.  Key Benefits of Access Control Systems
