ALEXANDRIA, Va. — ThermoGrid from ECI Software Solutions, a provider of business management software and services, has joined ACCA's corporate partner program.

ThermoGrid is a cloud-based software platform for plumbers, electricians, and HVACR technicians that enables them to connect with customers and leads, increase sales, match technicians with jobs, place orders, track inventory, manage financials, and more. It also automates repetitive manual processes, reducing the mistakes that frequently come with them, and features analytic reporting to gain insights into profitability.

“ACCA is thrilled to have ECI’s ThermoGrid join our corporate program," said Barton James, ACCA president and CEO. "Software is one of the most talked-about topics among ACCA contractors, so having a new ally with software expertise will help contractors see what is available to them to improve their business. I look forward to seeing the benefits this strategic alliance will deliver to our members.”

ACCA’s corporate partner program enables HVACR industry suppliers, manufacturers, and service providers to demonstrate their commitment to ACCA members and the contracting industry through year-round support, an ACC press release said. The program also provides increased access to ACCA’s nationwide network of contractors through tailored communications and marketing campaigns.

“Contractors are the backbone of our economy, and providing our field-service technology to HVAC contractors will help them connect the field with their office while giving them real-time business oversight,” said JG van Graan, director of sales at ECI. “We’re excited about the opportunity to empower HVAC contractors with technology tools for managing all aspects of their business and helping them to achieve their growth goals.”
