The trade
The half most platforms treat as an afterthought
A contractor is not a seat in somebody's system. They hold their own account, their own credentials and their own books, and work for as many organisations as they like.
Vetted once, trusted per client
Contractors declare their trades and upload insurance, licences and certifications once. Each organisation approves or rejects the pack for itself, so nobody inherits anybody else's judgement.
Unvetted contractors cannot claim marketplace postings, and an expired document automatically flags the contractor for re-review rather than waiting for an audit to find it.
Your compliance on your contractors, without asking every one of them for the same PDF twice a year.
A calendar that counts people, not jobs
Every internal and external contractor has a lane — standard hours, minus their booked time off and their assigned work — pooled into one organisation calendar.
A contractor shared with other organisations is automatically busy everywhere at once, and the others see only an opaque “Unavailable”.
No double-bookings, and no organisation learns who else your contractor works for.
The paperwork agencies already send
Works orders arrive by email or upload and become jobs, priced at that sender's callout rate. Remittance advices become recorded payments with the invoices pre-matched.
The documents the trade already receives become the data it would otherwise re-key at the end of a fourteen-hour day.
Your inbox becomes your job list.
Stock on the shelf and stock on the van
Parts counted per location with a reorder level each — a store that carries fifty and a van that carries two are not the same threshold — and every movement tied to the job that caused it.
A shortage comes with an explanation instead of a shrug.

The money

The property
The record that outlives every job on it
