What does SubcontractorScorecard measure?

SubcontractorScorecard grades each subcontractor on schedule performance, quality pass rates, safety compliance, RFI response time, and resource commitment — turning months of gut feeling into a single letter grade backed by data.

How does POD track subcontractor resource commitment?

SubResourceCommitment measures whether a sub is delivering the crew size and equipment promised in their contract versus what they are actually deploying on site each day.

Can POD data be used in sub renewal negotiations?

Yes. SubcontractorScorecard generates a data-backed performance record for every sub across every project. That record replaces anecdotal memory with documented evidence for renewal and bid decisions.

POD Defines the Standard — S5: Feature Standards

You Manage 30 Subs. POD Gives You a Report Card for Each One.

You have 30 subcontractors on this project. You know which ones you trust. You know which ones cause problems. But you cannot prove it — not with data. When it is time to renew, you are going on gut. POD gives you the report card they always deserved.

Managing Subs Without Data

Gut feel is expensive. POD makes sub management measurable.

You manage subs on memory and reputation

You know Sub 7 is reliable. You know Sub 12 causes problems. But you cannot prove it with numbers. When renewal time comes, you negotiate from gut — not data.

Resource commitments are never enforced

Your sub committed 12 ironworkers. They show up with 7. You notice after the schedule slips. POD flags it the morning it happens — before the delay is real.

Sub quality problems compound silently

A sub with a 72% first-pass rate causes 3x more rework than a 95% sub. You don't see it because there's no report card. The cost compounds quietly across the project.

How SubcontractorScorecard Works

Automatic grades from daily project data — no manual scoring required.

POD tracks every sub automatically

As daily reports come in, POD maps performance data to each subcontractor: crew levels, quality scores, RFI response times, safety observations.

Report cards generate weekly

SubcontractorScorecard grades each sub on 5 dimensions. The grade letter is automatic — based on data, not opinion. No meeting required to see the score.

Red flags surface before damage

When a sub falls below threshold on any dimension, POD surfaces it immediately — before schedule impact, before rework accumulates, before the conversation gets difficult.

The Subcontractor Intelligence Standard

From gut-feel to graded accountability — across every sub, every day.

Report card for every subcontractor

Data-backed grades

SubcontractorScorecard grades each sub on schedule performance, quality, safety, RFI response, and resource commitment — auto-generated from daily project data.

Resource commitment vs actuals

Commitment enforcement

SubResourceCommitment compares contracted crew levels against what actually showed up each day. Shortfalls trigger alerts before schedule impact.

Sub comparison across projects

Portfolio-level insight

See how your subs perform across multiple projects simultaneously. Identify your best performers and your chronic underperformers with one view.

Renewal decision intelligence

Evidence for negotiations

When contract renewal time arrives, POD generates a complete data-backed performance record. Replace anecdotal memory with documented evidence.

The Report Card They Always Deserved

Six subcontractors. Five dimensions each. One automated view — generated from your daily project data.

The Complete Sub Intelligence Platform

AI-powered sub risk detection

Specialized AI agents detect early degradation patterns in sub performance — declining crew sizes, slipping quality scores, rising RFI backlog.

Voice observation logging

Superintendents voice-log sub observations from the field. POD structures them into performance records automatically.

Sub trend tracking

Track each sub's performance trend over time — improving, stable, or degrading — so you see direction, not just point-in-time scores.

Safety-specific sub grading

Each sub gets a dedicated safety score: incidents, near misses, PPE compliance, and safety observation participation — separate from schedule and quality grades.

Automated weekly report distribution

POD sends each sub their own weekly report card automatically. Accountability without the awkward conversation.

Bid decision support

Use historical sub performance data when evaluating bids. A sub with an A on schedule and a C on quality may not be worth the lowest bid price.

"Sub 7 had an F on quality for three straight weeks. We had the data. The conversation was 10 minutes instead of 2 hours of arguments. That data pays for POD by itself."
