subcontractor scheduling

Subcontractor scheduling without the phone tag

Coordinating subs is where most schedules fall apart. In Construction Company Software, subs are part of the same platform as your schedule, POs and punch lists: each one gets a free page with their work for you, and when dates move, only the subs affected hear about it, once.

How it works for your subs

Subs don't install anything or create an account. When their dates change, they get one message, by text or email, like:

  • “Diaz Remodeling: Drywall at 12 Oak St is now Mon 3/9 – Fri 3/13. Reply 1 to confirm, 2 if you can't make it.”
  • Replying 1 confirms. Replying 2 tells you right away so you can find someone else.
  • The link shows all their upcoming work with you, and lets them confirm, decline, propose a different date, or add a note or photo.
  • The same page handles bids, RFIs, pay apps and lien waivers.
  • Spanish-speaking subs get Spanish messages. Quiet hours mean no texts at 10pm.

How it works for you

  • The Today screen shows who hasn't confirmed, who declined and who asked to move
  • Automatic reminder before a sub starts
  • If a sub hasn't confirmed within the time you choose, you get a heads-up
  • Sub reliability scorecard: confirmation rate, reply time, on-time starts
  • One sub's work across all your jobs, so double-bookings are obvious

Part of the whole platform

Sub coordination isn't a separate app. Change orders that move the schedule, failed inspections that create punch items, and POs awarded from bids all reach the right sub from the same job.

Consent and opt-out handled

Texts follow carrier rules: subs are asked to opt in, every message honors STOP, and HELP gets a reply with your company name. You can always reach a sub by email instead.

Common questions

What if a sub doesn't have a smartphone?

Replying 1 or 2 works from any phone. The link is optional.

What does it cost my subs?

Nothing. Subs never pay and never need an account.

Will subs get spammed when I move ten things?

No. Changes are batched: each sub gets one message summarizing what changed for them.

Run your next job on it.

Set up a real job this afternoon. If it isn't for you, walk away. Nothing to cancel.
