In many industries that utilise contrator workers, compliance failures often happen before a job even starts. Relying on outdated or manual onboarding processes for verification can leave organisations open to risk and delays.
FlexManager puts Digital Contractor Verification front and centre. It’s a smarter, faster, and more accountable way to ensure that every contractor entering your sites meets your standards, before they even step on site.
Traditionally, contractor verification relies on a mix of spreadsheets, emails, and filing cabinets — a process that’s hard to track, harder to scale, and easy to get wrong. When things slip through the cracks, it can result in:
Unqualified or unapproved workers on-site
Lapsed certifications or expired documents going unnoticed
Delays during audits or regulatory inspections
When verification is manual, it’s inconsistent and time-consuming. This means compliance is at risk and operations are not optimised.
Contractor Pre-Qualification: For documents such as certifications, insurance, or licences, contractors can fill out their information through a secure online portal. You define the requirements for verification, and the system ensures nothing is missed before a contractor ever sets foot on site.
Expiry Tracking: Once onboarded, FlexManager automatically tracks document expiry dates and sends reminders when renewals are due. This takes the pressure off admin teams and removes the risk of non-compliant access.
Easy & Instant Verification: On-site, supervisors can instantly verify a contractor’s status using mobile devices. The information is readily available in real time, giving leaders confidence at the point of entry.
After Verification, contractors can be linked directly to specific tasks, locations, or projects in the FlexManager system. This means organisations have full traceability and accountability, with all activity connected to a central compliance system.
Whether you’re managing five contractors or five hundred, FlexManager adapts to your needs. The Contractor Management modules connect seamlessly with other FlexManager modules, in one innovative connected solution.
