Your Sub Just Filed
Chapter 11. No Warning.
Your electrical subcontractor just filed for Chapter 11. They're 60% through a $2.3M scope. Their bonding company won't cover the completion. You had no warning because your daily reports track progress, not vendor health.
The Blind Spots That Cost Millions
Daily reports track what got built. They never track whether the companies building it are healthy enough to finish.
No Vendor Health Monitoring
Your daily reports track schedule progress and safety incidents. Nobody tracks whether the electrical sub who owes you 60% of remaining scope is showing signs of financial distress. You find out the day they stop showing up.
Bonding Status Unknown
Your subcontract requires a payment and performance bond. But nobody checks whether the bonding company is still solvent, whether coverage has lapsed, or whether the penal sum still covers the remaining work. The bond is worthless if you never verify it.
Delivery Track Record Invisible
Your concrete supplier has been 2 days late on the last 6 pours. Your steel fabricator has missed 3 of 5 delivery windows this month. Nobody aggregates delivery performance because it lives in emails, phone calls, and the field super's memory.
Quality Declining Silently
Rework on the drywall sub has tripled in the last 3 weeks. Inspection first-pass rates for the mechanical contractor dropped from 92% to 64%. Nobody connected the dots because quality data sits in separate inspection logs that nobody trends.
How POD Scores Vendor Risk
Aggregate
POD collects data from daily field reports, invoices, delivery logs, quality inspections, and safety observations for every vendor on your project. No extra data entry required.
Score
AI computes a composite risk score across 4 dimensions: financial stability, delivery reliability, quality performance, and safety compliance. Updated daily.
Alert
When any vendor crosses your risk threshold, POD sends real-time notifications with specific risk factors and recommended actions. Weeks before the default.
The POD Vendor Intelligence Advantage
Know which vendors are healthy and which are deteriorating before the project feels the impact.
Composite Risk Scoring
POD calculates a multi-factor risk score for every vendor on your project. Financial indicators, delivery reliability, quality trends, and safety compliance are weighted into a single score that updates daily from field data. When a vendor crosses your threshold, you know immediately.
Bonding Status Tracking
POD monitors bonding coverage against remaining scope value. When a subcontractor's bond is approaching expiration, coverage is insufficient for remaining work, or the surety company's rating changes, your risk dashboard flags it before the gap becomes a crisis.
Delivery Reliability Dashboard
Every delivery is logged against the committed date. POD tracks on-time percentage, average delay days, and trend direction per vendor. When your steel fabricator's on-time rate drops from 90% to 65% over 4 weeks, the declining trend triggers an alert before the next critical delivery misses.
Quality Trend Alerts
Inspection pass rates, rework frequency, and NCR counts are tracked per vendor over time. POD detects declining quality patterns and correlates them with other risk factors. A vendor whose quality drops while delivery slows is a vendor in trouble.
Watch a Vendor Score Collapse in Real Time
Six vendors. Four risk dimensions. One is in trouble. POD sees it months before the bankruptcy filing.

Per-vendor quality scorecards with rolling 30/60/90-day trends. Inspection pass rate charts, rework cost tracking, and NCR frequency analysis. Correlates quality decline with schedule and financial risk factors for early warning.
Our HVAC sub was 60% complete on a $1.8M scope when they filed Chapter 7. POD had flagged their composite score dropping from 78 to 34 over four months. We had a replacement mobilized the same week. Zero schedule impact.
