How enido Built A Scalable & Reliable Solar Operation

enido replaced spreadsheets and fragmented tools with Scoop’s field service management platform. This enables the delivery of on-time installations, strong compliance, and the reliability that Swiss customers demand.

About enido

Founded in 2024, enido is a Swiss clean energy provider delivering photovoltaic systems, batteries, EV chargers, and an energy management system. Unlike many traditional installers, enido was designed from day one as a modern, process-driven company. The three co-founders, with backgrounds in startups and business ventures, built enido to differentiate itself through precision, reliability, and integrated solutions.

Although still a young company, enido has quickly established a reputation for professionalism, completing nearly 160 projects in its first full year. With growing demand from homeowners, multifamily properties, and institutional investors like pension funds and asset managers, enido needed a way to ensure every installation met Swiss standards for reliability.

Challenges Before Scoop

In the early days, however, enido’s operations were managed through spreadsheets, Google Drive folders, and WhatsApp threads. While this setup worked for a handful of projects, it quickly became unmanageable as the business grew.

Errors occurred when details such as lightning protection requirements or permit submissions were overlooked, and subcontractors frequently lacked the necessary information on time. Problems included:

  • Missing or incomplete documentation, such as permits or compliance photos.
  • Subcontractors often lacked the right information at the right time.
  • Project managers spent extra site visits clarifying details.
  • Limited visibility into scheduling and project status.

For a company built on Swiss reliability, these inefficiencies hindered enido’s ability to scale without compromising quality.

Why enido Chose Scoop

enido turned to Scoop to create a more structured operational backbone. With Scoop’s central operations hub, the team replaced spreadsheets with standardized project templates that served as a single source of truth. Dynamic checklists eliminated missed steps, ensuring permits, photos, and compliance documents were always captured. Scheduling visibility improved for office staff and subcontractors alike, while automated field reports delivered every detail crews needed at exactly the right moment. Because workflows were available in German, subcontractors could adopt them seamlessly.

enido evaluated solutions early, recognizing that strong processes were critical to growth. Scoop stood out for several reasons:

  • Central Operations Hub: A single system to manage all workflows, replacing spreadsheets and WhatsApp threads.
  • Dynamic Checklists: Step-by-step workflows with mandatory fields to ensure nothing is missed, such as lightning protection compliance.
  • Unlimited Users: Allowed subcontractors to access the system without licensing barriers.
    Localization: German-language workflows made adoption easy for field teams and subcontractors.
    Scalability: Flexibility to expand into larger, multifamily, and commercial projects.

“Scoop gives us the perfect data set to make no mistakes during the installation process. Everyone always has the right information at the right time,” says co-founder Matteo Goldschmid.

Implementation and Workflows in Action

enido’s implementation of Scoop focused on replacing spreadsheets with structured workflows that mirror their project lifecycle. Together with Scoop’s onboarding team, enido configured over 200 fields across templates to capture the details required for Swiss residential and commercial projects.

Key workflows include:

  • Site Survey: Installers and project managers capture photos, customer data, and regulatory details directly into Scoop. Dynamic checklists ensure mandatory items like meter readings or lightning protection are never overlooked.
  • Design and Engineering: Office staff upload plan sets, revision notes, and compliance documents. Workflows move automatically once requirements are completed.
  • Permitting: Required applications and approvals are tracked with timestamps, providing visibility across the team.
  • Installation: Subcontractors receive automated reports with every document, photo, and instruction in one place. This eliminates delays caused by missing information.
  • Closeout and Handover: Customers receive organized documentation packages, including compliance records and subsidy paperwork. Project managers are able to finalize handovers with only a second site visit.

Subcontractor engagement was a critical focus. At first, many partners were unfamiliar with digital tools. Scoop’s automated reporting and mobile access made adoption simple. Now, subcontractors rarely need to call the office for missing information, reducing back-and-forth and saving project managers significant time

Results With Scoop

Project managers reduced their site visits to just two per project: one for the survey and one for final handover in 95 percent of cases. Faster inspections and subsidy compliance have become the norm thanks to complete, standardized documentation. Most importantly, enido now has a scalable system that supports its expansion into larger and more complex projects without sacrificing reliability.

Since adopting Scoop, enido has transformed its operations:

  • On-Time Delivery: Nearly 90 projects so far in 2025, with more than 95% delivered on schedule. Only two projects were delayed, both due to supply chain issues.
  • Reduced Errors: Missing photos, compliance documentation, and permit delays have been virtually eliminated thanks to mandatory checklist fields.
  • Efficiency Gains: Project managers reduced their site visits to just two per project (survey + handover) in about 90% of cases.
  • Subsidy Compliance: Complete documentation ensures faster inspections and smoother grant approvals.
  • Scheduling Visibility: Office staff and subcontractors now share real-time views of project status, improving coordination and reducing confusion.
  • Scalability: With standardized templates and workflows, enido is prepared to expand from Zurich to all of German-speaking Switzerland and take on larger multifamily and commercial projects.

Matteo notes that before Scoop, errors like forgetting lightning protection devices or missing customer utility data caused delays and extra work. Now, automated reminders and required fields ensure these mistakes don’t happen.

Looking Ahead: A Clear Growth Trajectory 

With enido’s plans to expand across Switzerland and double installation volume, the company is positioning itself as the professional, tech-driven partner of choice for homeowners, property managers, and institutional investors. Scoop will continue to serve as enido’s operational backbone, ensuring the company scales without sacrificing reliability.

“Reliability is the most important value for Swiss clients and Scoop helps us deliver it at scale.” – Matteo Goldschmid, Co-Founder, enido
