For electrical submittals and RFP responses

Every spec requirement, checked against your product data.

Conformo reads the spec section and your cut sheets, answers each requirement with a page reference, and flags every deviation before the submittal or bid goes out.

The problem

Submittals come back. Bids get ruled non-responsive.

A single spec section can hold dozens of requirements, and the answers are spread across cut sheets, listings and manufacturer letters. Checking them by hand, under deadline, is where things slip. Conformo does the first pass so your team reviews exceptions instead of reading every line.

  • Values out of rangeEfficacy, CRI, temperature ratings, enclosure types, voltages.
  • Missing listings and certificationsUL, DLC tier, ENERGY STAR, BABA letters the spec asks for and the package lacks.
  • Options hidden in the catalog numberWhen a requirement is met only by an ordering option, you are told which one to specify.
  • Unit mismatches°C against °F, lumens against lm/W, metric datasheets against imperial specs.

How it works

From spec section to compliance sheet in one pass.

Who it's for

Two workflows, one check.

Submittals

Contractors, distributors and reps

Build the product data package and the compliance sheet together, and catch deviations before the engineer does.

  • Lighting, switchgear, panelboards, wire and devices
  • Substitution requests with every claim tied to a page
  • Fewer “revise and resubmit” cycles

Bids and RFPs

Government contractors

Answer the technical requirements of federal, state and municipal solicitations without leaving a line unaddressed.

  • Compliance matrix built from the solicitation itself
  • Buy American and BABA clauses called out
  • Missing evidence flagged before the deadline

FAQ

Questions teams ask first.

Does it replace the engineer or estimator?

No. It does the first pass: it flags possible deviations and missing evidence and shows where each answer came from. What goes into the submittal or bid, and the responsibility for it, stays with your team.

What if the cut sheet doesn't mention a requirement?

The line is marked as missing evidence, so you know to add a listing, request a manufacturer letter, or choose a different product.

Which trades does it cover?

For now we focus on Division 26: lighting, distribution equipment, wire and devices. Other divisions follow based on what early users need.

Can I edit the results before exporting?

Yes. Every verdict and remark can be changed, and your edits are what gets exported.

How does the free check work?

Email one spec section and the product data you plan to submit. Every requirement is checked, and we send back the compliance sheet in Excel within 48 hours. No charge and no commitment.

What will it cost after that?

Plans are expected to start at $79 per month. Everyone who tries the free check gets launch pricing.

Who's behind it

Built by an electrical engineer, not a software company.

IgnasFounder, electrical engineer

I studied automation (BSc) and electrical power systems (MSc), and have worked in electrical engineering since, as a design engineer, a project engineer and now a project manager.

I built Conformo because checking product data against requirements line by line is slow work where small misses get expensive. It compares each requirement in your spec with what the product data actually says, and shows where every answer came from, so you can verify it yourself.
