Built for the Dirt, the Dust, and the Deadlines: Field-Proven Tools for Utility-Scale Solar.
Your Personal Project Management Tool Box
What We Do
At SolBridge, our mission is to solve the solar industry's most persistent challenges—specifically high turnover, safety violations, and inconsistent installation quality—by bridging the gap between complex engineering plan sets and the reality of field performance. For Contractors and EPCs, we operate as a remote extension of your team, providing system-specific training, remote QA/QC reviews, and AI-powered jobsite intelligence to eliminate rework and protect project margins.
For Individuals, we provide a professional development wing that offers industry-recognized credentials and technical courses designed to help entry-level laborers and transitioning tradespeople master the specialized skills required for modern utility-scale projects. By prioritizing a philosophy where "quality is built in, not inspected in," we deliver the practical, field-proven tools necessary for success in the dirt, the dust, and the deadlines.

• SolBridge Quality Control & Assurance ToolBox
QA/QC TOOL LIST
(Core Offer: Full-scale QA/QC Program Oversight.)
• Full Quality Program Buildout: Comprehensive organizational structure including roles, NCR pathways, and audit scoring.
• QC Inspection Forms: Standardized digital checklists for various construction phases (e.g., post driving, mechanical assembly).
• Advanced QC Protocols: Highly detailed technical instructions for high-risk installation points.
• NCR (Non-Conformance) Workflows: Standardized pathways for identifying, reporting, and correcting field errors.
• QA/QC Punchlist Standards: Templates for final project close-out and deficiency tracking.
• Installer Quality Scorecards: Data-driven sheets to track and compare the performance of different
crews.
• Remote Photo Audit Templates: Specific requirements for field teams to capture evidence of quality (e.g., inclinometer readings).
• Solbridg Oeperational & Management Reporting Toolbox
Project Management Tool List
(Core Offer: Operational & Management Reporting
• QC Performance Dashboards: Weekly visual reports showing the "Top 5 Recurring Issues" and risk forecasts.
• Weekly Quality summaries: Executive-level reports focusing on rework avoidance and program effectiveness.
• Risk Forecasting Reports: Analytical documents that predict potential failure points based on current audit scoring.
• Production Optimization Programs: Manuals focused on job sequencing and crew efficiency.
Solbridge Exclusive: "New" Documents (Gap Analysis)
• Post-Refusal Remediation Log: A project-specific data entry sheet for tracking refused piles, embedment depths, and proof-test results as required by GameChange specs.
• Hardware Bible / Torque Calibration Log: A specialized sheet for verifying that torque wrenches are calibrated and that Grade 8 hardware has been permanently set and marked.
• Severe Weather Response Protocol: A field guide for "Stow Behavior" logic, outlining exactly when and how to rotate tables to safety during wind or snow events.
• Grounding Continuity Verification Map: A digital document used to sign off on specific bonding points (e.g., Jumper Straps with 10" slack) to satisfy Electrical Engineer of Record requirements.
• Mushrooming & Deformation Remediation Guide: A visual "how-to" for field crews to reshape deformed post tops back to within 1/16" of original specs.
• Solbridg AI-Powered Jobsite Intelligence
AI Tool List
(Core Offer: Custom AI Systems Built For The Job.)
• Jobsite-Specific AI Agents: These are custom-trained agents that serve as "all-knowing" Engineers and Quality Managers. They are designed for field leads to keep in their pockets, providing instant, 24/7 access to project specs, manufacturer manuals, and the "SolBridge Standard".
• AI-Generated Project Data Dashboards: A custom-built system that ingests raw field data—including Production, Quality, and Safety metrics—and automatically converts it into weekly and monthly executive reports. This automates the creation of our Weekly QC Performance Dashboards.
• AI Predictive Risk Forecasting: Using Machine Learning to analyze current field performance and predict potential failure points or schedule delays before they occur, specifically focusing on high-risk, high-cost failure points.
• Automated Field Photo Analysis (Vision AI): Enhances our Installation Photo Review by using AI to instantly analyze field photos for tolerance errors, such as verifying if a Center Post is within the ±1° perpendicularity rule or if a Squeeze Splice has the required 1/4" gap.
• AI-Driven Onboarding Assistants: Digital assistants that use Generative AI to provide new laborers with equipment-specific walkthroughs (e.g., for the ATI DURATRACK ), reducing the time needed for "proper minimal knowledge" training.
• Production Optimization Modeling: An AI system that uses Reinforcement Learning to evaluate crew performance and recommend the most efficient job sequencing for tracker assembly or module installation.
• AI-Powered Safety Compliance Monitor: A tool that cross-references daily safety logs and site photos against OSHA 10/30 standards to flag potential violations in real-time.
• Central Knowledge Management Bot: An internal AI tool trained on all project SOPs, RFIs, and Quality Manuals to ensure every member of the EPC team has access to the most current and correct project information.
• Solbridge Training & Development Deliverables
Training Tool List
(Core Offer: Personalized Training.)
• System-Specific Installation Modules: Training tailored to exact equipment types (e.g., NEXTracker, Array, GameChange).
• Installation Training Videos: Short-form, field-captured videos demonstrating correct techniques.
•Crew Leadership Modules: Training for foremen on communication, conflict control, and production planning.
• Competency Frameworks: A tiered list of required skills for workers to progress from entry-level to lead roles.
• Certification Systems: Written exams and practical tests used to issue "SolBridge Standard" credentials.
• Interactive Quizzes: Digital knowledge checks used during the onboarding process.
• Solbridge Digital Jobsite Products
Document Creation Tool List
