The job app for general contracting businesses
One week it is a half-day repair. The next it is a build that runs for months. Every job keeps its own record: the subcontractors you hired, what you quoted, and what it cost. It all works on a site with no signal.
General contracting
The everyday problems, solved
One week it is a small repair. The next it is a project with six different trades on site. The job record works the same way for both: what you quoted, who worked on it, and what it cost you.
Most of the work belongs to somebody else's crew, and you are the one who has to remember who did what. Subcontractors have their own list, kept apart from your own team. You can put a subcontractor on a job the same way you put anyone else on one.
Every trade you hire wants the work in writing, and you are retyping it each time. The subcontractor contract already suggests the work and the terms for that trade.
