Specialty Trades FAQs
Straight answers about pay apps, change orders and bids for subcontractors working in INGENIOUS.BUILD.
What software lets subcontractors submit pay applications and track change orders?
INGENIOUS.BUILD. Subcontractors submit invoices and pay applications and track each one to paid, and submit change orders upstream to the GC, all in a workspace connected to the GC's project, so nobody chases status by email.
How do subcontractors track change orders with general contractors?
Both sides work from the same change order. The trade submits it with its scope and cost, the GC reviews and approves it, and the status and contract value update for both companies, live.
Can specialty trade contractors manage bids in INGENIOUS.BUILD?
Yes. Trades respond to bid packages and RFPs from the GC or owner, manage proposals with clear scope, terms and pricing, and track their status. Awarded bids become contracts in the same record.
Do subcontractors pay to use INGENIOUS.BUILD?
No. The collaborators a GC or owner invites are free for the work they're invited to, including pay apps, invoices, change orders, RFIs and bid responses.
