Generator maintenance software for standby power contractors
Standby installs, recurring PM contracts, load bank testing — track every unit, engine hour, and inspection due date in one platform. When the grid fails, your service records prove the generator won't.
Challenges Generator Services companies face
These are the problems we hear about most from generator services service teams.
PM contracts running on spreadsheets
Hundreds of standby units, each on its own weekly, monthly, and annual cycle. One missed PM visit means a generator that may not start when the power goes out.
Scattered test documentation
Facility managers need run-test and load bank records for insurance audits and their AHJ. Paper forms and email threads don't survive an audit.
No unit-level service history
Engine hours, battery swaps, transfer switch tests, fuel system service — spread across spreadsheets, truck folders, and one senior tech's memory.
How Forz helps
Purpose-built features that solve real generator services operations challenges.
Recurring PM Jobs on Autopilot
Set each contract's cycle once — weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual — and Forz auto-generates work orders with job type, description, and line items pre-filled.
Generator and Engine-Hour Records
Track every unit as a device with its own barcode, location, and custom fields for engine hours, kW rating, fuel type, and transfer switch details. Device templates speed up fleet setup.
Load Bank and Run-Test Documentation
Schedule inspections at 14 frequencies, from daily checks to every 7 years. Techs record Pass, Fail, or Bypass with photos in the field, and the next due date calculates automatically.
Self-Service Records for Facility Managers
Customers log into a passwordless portal to download inspection PDFs, review invoices, and accept estimates — fewer "send me that report again" calls.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about using Forz for generator services operations.
NFPA 110 typically calls for weekly inspections, monthly exercising, and periodic load bank testing on Level 1 emergency power systems — but the exact schedule depends on the system level and the code edition your jurisdiction has adopted, so verify requirements with your AHJ. In Forz, you attach multiple inspection types to each generator — say a weekly visual, a monthly run test, and an annual load bank test — each with its own frequency and auto-calculated due date. Technicians record Pass, Fail, or Bypass results with photos during the visit, and Forz sets the next due date from the frequency you configured, so nothing on the testing calendar slips.
Yes. Each generator becomes a device record with a barcode, a location description, and custom fields, so you can store engine hours, kW rating, fuel type, install date, and transfer switch details against the unit. System types carry their own field sets, and device templates let you set up fleets of similar units fast. Custom fields — eight field types including text, dropdown, date, and attachment — are also available on jobs, so technicians can log the hour-meter reading at every PM visit.
Yes. Pair recurring jobs with recurring invoices: Forz pre-generates 12 months of scheduled invoice items and creates each invoice in Draft up to 5 days before its date, so your office reviews it before it goes out. Invoice emails carry a token-based payment link — no customer login — where customers pay by card or US bank ACH through Stripe, and the invoice status updates to Paid automatically. Invoices sync two-way with QuickBooks Online. All of it is included in one per-user price: $50/user/month on annual plans or $60 month-to-month, with free migration and onboarding.
