What Contractor Compliance is

Contractor Compliance chases and monitors the documents you need from subcontractors — certificates of insurance, licences, safety records — and alerts you when something expires. Hiring an uninsured sub is one of the ways a good contracting business gets destroyed, and this closes that gap.

Best for

Contractors who routinely hire subcontractors and need current documentation

Watch out

It manages collection and expiry, not whether the coverage limits are adequate — someone still has to review the certificates.

What it does well

  • Automated document chasing from subcontractors
  • Expiry alerts before coverage lapses
  • Central repository for audits
  • Reduces your exposure to uninsured subs

Integrates with

Accounting exports · Document storage

Integration lists change often and "integrates" can mean anything from a real two-way sync to a one-way push through Zapier. Ask the vendor which fields move, in which direction, and how often.

Before you commit

  • Match coverage to your actual exposure and contract requirements — a cheap policy with the wrong limits is a liability.
  • Instant certificate of insurance generation is worth real money when commercial clients ask for one.
  • Confirm whether tools and equipment are covered, and at replacement cost or actual cash value.
  • Lien rights run on hard statutory deadlines that vary by state. Calendar them the day you start a job.
  • Keep licence, insurance, and registration renewals in one place with a named owner, not in someone’s memory.

How to judge it in a trial

Run one real job through it end to end — not the demo data. Quote it, schedule it, do it, invoice it, take the payment. Then ask the only question that matters on day 400: did the people who have to use this every day find it faster than what they do now? Friction you notice in week one compounds forever, and tool-hopping costs more than any feature gap.
