Trades and contractors
Your own people on the roster, and the subbies you call when there is too much on.
For whoever allocates the work and whoever chases the paperwork.
What gets in the way
- Half the crew is not on the payrollSubcontractors come and go, and their insurance and licences are in an inbox.
- A job is a phone call and a memoryNobody can say what was agreed, when it was accepted, or what it was going to cost.
- Making a subbie use your softwareThey will not create an account to accept one job, and they should not have to.
- The charges arrive separatelyWhat a subcontractor charged is in a different pile from what the job cost.
A week at Hawthorn Electrical
Hawthorn Electrical is invented for this page — an invented electrical business with six of its own staff and a handful of subcontractors. Every business and person named on this site is fictional, and so is the data in the pictures.
- MondayThe week is rostered for the crew — by site, by trade, published when it is ready.
- TuesdayA job comes in that nobody is free for. It is raised and sent to a subcontractor by email; they open a link and accept it. No account, no password, no plan — that path is free and stays free.
- WednesdayTheir ABN, insurance and licence are recorded against them, with what is running out.
- ThursdayThe job is worked and finished, and what it cost arrives on your bills beside everything else.
- FridayA sole trader who works for several businesses signs in to their own Torvi: the businesses they work for, the jobs they were offered, and the invoices they raise themselves.
