The Challenge

01

No daily record of sub performance

You know the sub is underperforming. Your superintendent mentions it in meetings. But your daily reports do not quantify their productivity, quality, or compliance. Good luck proving it.

02

Back-charge documentation is too thin

You back-charge a sub $45K for clean-up and damage. They dispute it. Your evidence is a one-paragraph email. The arbitrator reduces it to $8K because you cannot prove the details.

03

Termination without paper trail

Terminating a sub without a documented trail of deficiency notices, cure letters, and daily performance records is an invitation for a wrongful termination claim that you will lose.

04

Disputes reconstructed months later

By the time the dispute reaches arbitration, you are reconstructing events from memory. The sub has their version. You have yours. The arbitrator splits the baby.

The POD Advantage

Daily Sub Performance Tracking

Daily performance data

Track subcontractor crew counts, productivity, quality scores, and compliance every day through your daily reports. Build a performance record that is irrefutable.

Photo-Documented Back-Charges

Bulletproof back-charges

Every back-charge event is documented with timestamped photos, descriptions, and cost estimates on the day it occurs. Not reconstructed weeks later from memory.

Termination Paper Trail

Defensible terminations

POD creates an automatic performance history for every sub. Deficiency patterns, cure period tracking, and escalation documentation build your termination defense.

Contemporaneous Records Only

Timestamp-verified

Every entry is timestamped and GPS-verified on the day it was created. No retroactive editing. Arbitrators trust contemporaneous records over reconstructed testimony.

Sub Management Features

“We terminated a sub for poor performance. They filed a $1.2M wrongful termination claim. Our daily reports had no performance metrics, no written warnings, no photo evidence. We settled for $800K.”

— VP of Preconstruction, National GC
