Engineering & industrial maintenance contractors
Maintenance contractors get paid for every signed hour.
Dockets keyed into payroll, portals and invoices, POs that run dry mid-job, and remittances matched by hand.
Where the week goes
The three jobs that eat your week.
- Double handling
One docket keyed into four systems
A signed docket flows to payroll, the client’s portal, the PO balance and your accounts.
How it stops - Getting paid
Hours that never make it to an invoice
Signed, paid, claimed and remitted hours compared daily, so gaps are fixed while the crew is on site.
How it stops - Missed follow-ups
POs that run dry mid-job
The client supervisor gets a daily PO summary, so they raise it before work stops being billable.
