Why subcontractors lose money every week

Slow estimates cost you jobs
You're pricing off gut feel and memory. The GC you're bidding against is using regional cost data. That's why you keep coming in second.
You're waiting 30–60 days to get paid
Informal invoices get ignored. A Word doc emailed to AP disappears. Professional invoices with a payment link get paid faster.
No project visibility means no leverage
When you can't see the full project schedule, you show up when the GC tells you to — even if the site isn't ready. Real-time project visibility lets you plan your crews and push back with data.

Everything your back office does. None of the overhead.

ESTIMATING
Trade-specific cost data. Regional, not national.

National average pricing is a fiction that makes everyone's bids wrong. Groundbreak Crew templates are built for your trade and calibrated to your region.

  • Regional labor and material cost data
  • Labor and material separation on every line item
  • Professional PDF export
  • Save templates for repeat jobs
VERIFICATION
Pull a license check before you make the call.

Groundbreak Crew verifies license status directly from state boards — not static databases. Know who you're working with before you commit.

  • Live pulls from state licensing databases
  • Verified badge on your profile
  • Check any contractor before you commit
  • State coverage expanding quarterly
INVOICING
Send the invoice the day the work is done.

Turn a completed estimate into an invoice in two clicks. Clients get a payment link, and you stop chasing AP by email.

  • Estimate to invoice in two clicks
  • Client pays via secure link
  • Automatic payment confirmation
  • Invoice history tied to job list
FILE MANAGEMENT
Every document. One place. Always current.

Stop digging through emails for that spec sheet. Upload, organize, and share project documents with your GC — submittals, contracts, change orders, all version-controlled.

  • Project document library
  • Version-controlled uploads
  • Share with GC via portal
  • Organized by job
RFIs
Ask the question. Get the answer. Keep the record.

RFIs get lost in text threads. Groundbreak Crew gives you a formal RFI log that tracks questions, responses, and resolution dates — so when there's a dispute, you have the paper trail.

  • Formal RFI submission and tracking
  • Response timestamps and audit trail
  • Attach photos and documents
  • Export RFI log as PDF
DRAWING MANAGEMENT
Always build from the right set.

Drawing revisions cause the most expensive mistakes on a job. Groundbreak Crew syncs the latest drawing set from your GC so your crew is never building off a superseded plan.

  • Drawing version sync with GC
  • Automatic revision notifications
  • View drawings on mobile (field-ready)
  • Drawing markup and annotation
SCHEDULING
See your schedule. Across every job.

When you're running crews on 3 jobs, conflicts are invisible until someone doesn't show up. Groundbreak Crew gives you a unified schedule across all active projects.

  • Unified multi-job calendar
  • Crew assignment per job
  • GC schedule integration
  • Conflict detection and alerts

What subcontractors are saying

“I used to spend Sunday nights pricing jobs on a yellow pad. Now I pull up a template, adjust for the ZIP, and send it before I leave the site. Closed three jobs last week that way.”— Jake R., Plumbing contractor — Phoenix, AZ
“The invoice-with-payment-link thing alone is worth it. My average collection time went from 38 days to 9. Clients just tap and pay.”— Maria S., Electrical contractor — Dallas, TX
“We were losing bids because our numbers looked amateur next to the big shops. Now our estimates look as clean as theirs — and our pricing is tighter because the regional data is actually accurate.”— Darnell T., Drywall contractor — Atlanta, GA
