Remarcable is now built for mechanical and plumbing contractors

Plumbers and HVAC teams work to precise standards, but the visibility into material rarely runs with the same precision. Purchasing chases prices across supplier sites, emails, and voicemails, and by the time a quote comes back, the price has often changed. Suppliers are working to make sure they can provide the best price, and meet delivery schedules for their customers. In the field, the foreman has no line of sight into any of it: what's ordered, what's confirmed, what's still stuck in an inbox. And when materials show up late, the work stops. Stopping work is the most expensive impact to the budget. 

Today that changes. Remarcable now brings connected procurement and material operations software to mechanical and plumbing contractors – so purchasing, the field, the shop, and suppliers all operate from the same view. Here is what that looks like day to day.

Everyone on the same page, in real time

A purchaser searches for what the job needs – pipe, fittings, valves, fixtures, duct – and sees real products with current pricing from the distributors they already buy from. From there it becomes a purchase order without opening a second system or waiting on a callback. Field teams can send material requests straight from the jobsite, and every note, change, and confirmation stays attached to the order. Instead of three teams holding three versions of the truth, there is one, and everyone can see it.

Margin you can see while the job is still open

Live distributor pricing sits side-by-side, so the accurate price is in front of you before you commit. A large hold-for-release buy burns down release by release, visible to everyone, so the same material never gets bought twice. When the invoice lands, Remarcable checks it against the purchase order, the supplier's sales order, and proof of receipt, and flags any gap in price, quantity, tax, or freight before you pay. That is the 4-way match, and AI catches the overcharge while the job is still open, not weeks after it closes.

Built for the field

The catalog is visual. You find a part by sight and spec instead of hunting for a part number, and it works on a phone at the jobsite as well as it does at a desk. That is why the field picks it up the first day instead of trying to work around it. A new hire orders like a veteran, and the veterans get through it faster.

The same play on every job

Standardized ordering and approvals mean the newest coordinator buys the same way the business does. Supplier history and negotiated pricing live in the system instead of in someone's memory, so none of it walks out the door when a person does. The work runs the same way in every office and on every crew.

Built alongside mechanical and plumbing contractors

We built the new mechanical catalog alongside mechanical and plumbing contractors. JH Kelly is one of them. Their purchasing team got off the quote treadmill, and their field crews finally knew what was arriving and when. Traci Sillik, Director of Supply Chain, said, 

"The platform integrated seamlessly with our existing systems, enabling rapid adoption while minimizing disruption to day-to-day workflows. That level of tight integration ensured clean, reliable data flow and allowed teams to realize value almost immediately."

One platform, whether you run plumbing, HVAC, electrical, or all three

The Remarcable catalog now includes over 600,000 visual products with spec sheets, covering mechanical, plumbing, and electrical trades.

Every part, every team, every order, on one platform and finally connected. Less time lost to chasing quotes and status. Less guessing about what is coming. One place to source, request, order, and manage material, so you can take on more work without losing control of it.
