Solo is an approved production engine for LightReach TPO Products.

No other tools or shading reports are needed outside of Solo to quickly get you approved LightReach accounts. When 3D data is available, Solo jobs seamlessly go through the LightReach approval process to capture the first milestone, Notice to Proceed (NTP). If 3D data is unavailable, Solo will use a sophisticated queuing system approved by LightReach. This queue quickly identifies and corrects any shading issues that might be present onsite. No sales rep or internal administration is required to complete this step, including any other additional design work or shading tools. Solo does everything at no additional cost to you or the homeowner.  

Change Orders

Occasionally, change orders are required, a process which is not unique to Solo. This may occur for a number of reasons including shading, equipment matching, or even tree removal. Solo meticulously adheres to LightReach standards and requirements, providing the very best service to sales reps and homeowners. We want to ensure homeowners get the right estimated performance so that the sales reps can be confident and know that their customers’ Performance Guarantees are accurate. This will lead to happier customers, more referrals, and increased sales.

Change Orders on TPO are more frequent and scrutinized than typical loan products because of the Performance Guarantees. In addition, Solo has made a strong commitment to protect bank lenders by reducing their risk. Everyone wins when risks are reduced and homeowners are happy. When compared to loans, you will notice more change orders when working with TPO products. Solo’s V5 Gemini Solar Production Engine is actively reducing the number of change orders and streamlining workflows for installers across the country.  

To further support a seamless change order process for Sales Reps and Homeowners, Solo and LightReach are launching an improved, in-proposal, change order process in Q4 that will be a game changer for anyone looking to simplify their workflows and sell more deals. 

We highly recommend using Solo’s entire process and eliminating any unnecessary proposal software or design overhead for a smooth, highly functional design and Change Order process for LightReach and other approved Solo TPO integrators. Please reach out with any questions. We are here to support you and help you capitalize on the market with the highest quality products available.
