Subcontractor and vendor management for general contractors

General contractors need subcontractors, vendors, files, purchase context, expenses, and project communication tied to each work item. BisHub keeps projects, work items, vendors, purchase orders, materials, files, expenses, invoices, labor cost, and reports in one operational workflow so teams can move from subcontractor assignments, vendor quotes, purchase orders, material tracking, project files, invoices, expenses, and progress reports to completed work, payment collection, and reporting without rebuilding context in side tools.

• Intake signal

  Start with subcontractor assignments, vendor quotes, purchase orders, material tracking, project files, invoices, expenses, and progress reports. The first record should capture the source, customer, urgency, files, owner, and next action.

• Connected record

  Keep projects, work items, vendors, purchase orders, materials, files, expenses, invoices, labor cost, and reports attached to the same client or work item so every team can work from the same operating history.

• Team ownership

  General contractors can define who owns intake, scheduling, communication, finance review, reporting, and final customer follow-up.

• Payment and reporting path

  Connect estimates, proposals, invoices, online payments, expenses, labor cost, revenue tracking, profit tracking, and business reports.

1. Step 01

   Capture the trigger

   Start from subcontractor assignments, vendor quotes, purchase orders, material tracking, project files, invoices, expenses, and progress reports. Capture enough context to identify the customer, the work, the owner, the files, and the next action.

2. Step 02

   Create the operational record

   Connect projects, work items, vendors, purchase orders, materials, files, expenses, invoices, labor cost, and reports around one client or work item so office, field, sales, finance, and management see the same context.

3. Step 03

   Run the workflow

   Use tasks, calendar, communication, files, estimates, invoices, online payments, and reports to move the work forward.

4. Step 04

   Review the outcome

   Check activity history, payment status, revenue, expenses, labor cost, profit, and customer follow-up before the workflow is closed.

• Subcontractor phase

  Assign tasks, attach files, track communication, and keep project context visible.

• Vendor quote

  Attach files, cost notes, expense records, purchase details, and project tasks.
