Regional electrical contractor serving Northeast commercial and industrial projects
O'Connell Electric is a 110-year-old electrical contractor operating across New York and the Northeast, with four regional offices and roughly 500–1,000 employees. The tech stack is dominated by Microsoft 365, project-management tools (Procore, Primavera P6), and design software (AutoCAD, Revit, Bluebeam), reflecting a traditional construction workflow. Pain points cluster around project cost estimation, schedule adherence, and margin realization—challenges that persist despite heavy adoption of PM software, suggesting the gap is less about tools and more about operations discipline or estimating capability.
O'Connell Electric provides design-build, construction, maintenance, service, and emergency-response electrical services across the Northeast, with four staffed locations in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and Schenectady. The company ranks among the top 50 U.S. electrical contractors and serves major segments including data centers, infrastructure, brownfield redevelopment, and ongoing facility maintenance. Active hiring spans construction trades (18 open roles), engineering (17), and finance—a mix typical of growth in multi-site field operations. Current project work includes large-scale data center builds, rail infrastructure, and ongoing regional maintenance programs.
Primary tools: Microsoft 365, Procore, Primavera P6, AutoCAD, Revit, Bluebeam, Power BI, and SQL. Also deploy ETAP (electrical systems), Citrix for remote access, and Power Automate for workflows.
